Listing description
About this home
A home of this caliber is rarely offered. Perfectly positioned on a double homesite at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this custom estate is a masterclass in timeless craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and effortless entertaining. Every detail has been carefully considered, creating a residence that feels both grand and inviting.
From the moment you arrive, the scale and setting make an impression. Mature topiary landscaping, an expansive three-car garage, and exceptional privacy set the tone for what awaits inside. The interiors are warm yet sophisticated, with natural light pouring through every room and highlighting soaring beamed ceilings, elegant wainscoting, and carefully curated architectural finishes.
The open-concept living spaces flow seamlessly for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen is designed to impress. Quartz countertops, a gas range, and an oversized island create the perfect balance of beauty and function, whether hosting holiday dinners or casual Sunday brunches.
The owner's retreat is a private sanctuary, offering generous proportions, dual walk-in closets, separate vanities, a spa-inspired corner shower, and a classic clawfoot soaking tub that invites you to slow down and unwind. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers four bedrooms and three full bathrooms in the main residence, including a private guest suite with its own ensuite bath, while two additional bedrooms are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom—providing comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines.
Designed to feel like a private resort, the backyard centers around a sparkling pool and spa surrounded by multiple outdoor living spaces. Prepare meals in the fully equipped outdoor kitchen, gather around one of two outdoor fireplaces on cool evenings, or retreat to the extraordinary screened pavilion where exposed beams, handcrafted European stonework, a grand fireplace, and a built-in serving area create an unforgettable setting for year-round entertaining. Connected by a covered walkway, the detached guest retreat elevates the property even further.
The lower level features a dedicated fitness studio alongside an impressive private cinema complete with a 120-inch fixed screen, theater seating, premium Klipsch surround sound with dual subwoofers, and an immersive movie experience rarely found in residential homes. Above, a beautifully appointed guest suite with a kitchenette and sweeping views offers exceptional flexibility—ideal for extended family, an au pair, college-aged children, long-term guests, or a private executive retreat. Located within the gates of Southern Hills Plantation Club, one of the Tampa Bay area's premier golf course communities, residents enjoy an unmatched lifestyle centered around championship golf, elegant clubhouse dining, resort-style pools, tennis, pickleball, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and scenic walking paths.
This is more than a custom home—it is a private estate designed for those who appreciate exceptional craftsmanship, unforgettable entertaining, and a lifestyle reserved for only a select few.

The Messtimate™
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
$943,098the mess$1,198,704
Actual list price: $1,740,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 27% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
Outliers skew it — one flip or distressed sale in the comps drags the whole $/sq ft up or down.
Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
This home: 4 days on market vs. a 88-day community median
40 active listings competing, 20 under contract
≈5.0 months of supply
88 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $1,740,000 ($395/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

Jul 2026 · Infrastructure
Brooksville-Tampa Bay Regional Airport receives $13.6 million federal grant
The Brooksville-Tampa Bay Regional Airport received a $13.6 million federal grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration for roads, drainage, utilities, electrical service, and converting an unused 5,000-foot runway into a modern taxiway. The work will prepare about 600 acres of airport land for aviation and aerospace company development.
Why it matters: Airport infrastructure funding readies roughly 600 acres for aviation and aerospace facilities, strengthening the area industrial and employment base. The project is about 4 miles southwest of Southern Hills Plantation, elsewhere in Hernando County.
Board approves height allowance increase at One Hernando Center
The Hernando County Commission unanimously approved raising the maximum building height from 60 feet to 85 feet for One Hernando Center, a 146-acre industrial distribution development east of Kettering Road in Brooksville. The added height accommodates automated storage and retrieval systems for uses such as cold storage and manufacturing.
Why it matters: A 146-acre industrial distribution park advances with taller warehouse capacity, adding to the area logistics and manufacturing footprint. The project is about 3 miles northwest of Southern Hills Plantation, elsewhere in Hernando County.
The Hernando County Board voted 4-0 on June 23 to approve two prototype fire station designs, a 3-bay and a 4-bay configuration, by KMF Architects at a Phase 1 design cost of about $296,902. The reusable prototypes are intended to speed and standardize future fire station construction countywide.
Why it matters: Standardized fire station prototypes aim to expedite future public safety facility construction across the county, supporting emergency service infrastructure as growth continues. The site is about 2 miles northeast of Southern Hills Plantation.
Hernando School Board signs off on two large housing developments
On June 9 the Hernando County School Board approved school concurrency for two subdivisions between I-75 and Lockhart Road: Black Jack Ridge with up to 978 houses and Ginny Grove with up to 907 units. The board determined area schools have sufficient capacity to accommodate the new developments.
Why it matters: Two large residential subdivisions totaling roughly 1,885 homes are cleared to advance in the I-75 corridor, expanding the local housing supply pipeline. The site is about 4 miles southeast of Southern Hills Plantation.

Answered before you ask
Frequently asked questions
Why might my property taxes differ from the current owner's?
Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment can be re-set after a sale. As a result a new owner's bill may differ from the seller's. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Where does the flood-zone information come from?
The flood designation shown (Zone X) comes from the FEMA flood map and is provided for general information. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
