Community Details at a Glance
The Homes
Product
New-construction single-family homes from about 2,558 to 4,905 square feet, three to seven bedrooms, two to six baths, three-car garages, across 13 Artisan Collection floor plans with tile roofs and paver driveways
Builder
Homes by WestBay, which describes itself as Tampa Bay's largest private homebuilder; base pricing starts around $759,990, with recent closed sales roughly $848,000 to $1.06 million per the Stellar MLS feed
Scale
A small gated enclave of about 62 planned homesites off Eagles Flight Place in south Brandon, an infill community rather than a master plan; confirm remaining availability with the builder
Distinct from
Not to be confused with the established Barrington subdivision elsewhere in Brandon, or with Barrington at Sterling Hill in Spring Hill; confirm which community a listing or comp actually means
Costs & Fees
HOA
Reported figures conflict across portals, around $144 per month on some and $575 per quarter on others; confirm the exact current dues, billing frequency, and coverage in writing with the builder or HOA before you offer
CDD
The builder markets no CDD fees, which keeps the monthly carry lighter than many bonded Tampa Bay master plans; still verify the specific homesite on the Hillsborough County tax roll before you write
Reality
This is a low-amenity gated enclave; the money is in the home, the lot, and the no-CDD structure, not a resort amenity campus, so read the lot premium and option pricing hard
Amenities
Gated entry
A private gated entrance serving roughly 62 homesites; there is no clubhouse, pool complex, or golf on site, so the gate and the enclave scale are the amenity
Build quality markers
Tile roofs and paver driveways come standard across the Artisan Collection per the builder; confirm the included-features list for the specific plan and phase
No CDD structure
The builder markets no CDD fees, a real carrying-cost difference versus bonded new-construction communities in the region; verify per homesite
Everyday convenience
South Brandon position near the Bloomingdale corridor, with the Brandon retail strip, State Road 60, and the Selmon Expressway a manageable drive
Location
Setting

Highways
State Road 60 and the Selmon Expressway connect toward downtown Tampa and MacDill; I-75 is close for the north-south run
Errands
The Brandon and Bloomingdale retail corridors handle groceries, dining, and big-box runs, with Westfield Brandon about 15 minutes north
The Homes & Style
Barrington Preserve is a gated Homes by WestBay community of about 62 planned single-family homesites off Eagles Flight Place in south Brandon, near the Bloomingdale corridor. It is an active new-construction sales floor, not a resale market: base pricing starts around $759,990 and the builder was still selling as of July 2026.
First, the disambiguation, because it matters here: this is not the established Barrington subdivision elsewhere in Brandon, which is an older resale neighborhood at a very different price point, and it is not Barrington at Sterling Hill in Spring Hill. Confirm which community a listing, comp, or tax record actually refers to before you act on it.
The product comes from the builder's Artisan Collection: 13 floor plans from about 2,558 to 4,905 square feet, three to seven bedrooms, two to six baths, three-car garages, with tile roofs and paver driveways standard per the builder.
Recent closed sales in the community ran roughly $848,000 to $1.06 million between December 2025 and June 2026 per the Stellar MLS feed, and a fully optioned 4,905-square-foot Granada II quick move-in listed at about $1.48 million, so the real spend depends heavily on plan, lot, and options rather than the advertised base price.
Homes by WestBay builds this same Artisan product at Hidden Lakes, its other gated Brandon community, so cross-shop the two on lot, pricing, and timing before you commit to either.
As with any new build, confirm the included-features list, the option pricing, and the completion date in writing, and treat renderings and model finishes as illustrative until they are in your contract.
Living Here
This is a small gated enclave, not an amenitized master plan. There is no clubhouse, pool complex, or golf course on site; the gate, the enclave scale, and the larger homesites are the product.
The trade is deliberate: the builder markets no CDD fees, so the monthly carry skips the bond assessment that most amenity-heavy new communities in the region layer on top of the HOA.
The location does the lifestyle work. The community sits in south Brandon near the Bloomingdale corridor, with everyday retail on Bloomingdale Avenue and the Brandon strip, Westfield Brandon about 15 minutes north, and State Road 60, I-75, and the Selmon Expressway handling the commute toward downtown Tampa and MacDill.
The Stellar MLS feed shows the zoned schools for current listings here as Brooker Elementary, Burns Middle, and Bloomingdale High; Hillsborough County assignments change, so verify the zoning for the exact address with the district before you buy.
If a resort amenity campus is the priority, this is not that community; if a gated address, a larger new home, and a lighter fee stack are the priority, that is exactly what it is selling.
Before You Offer
Confirm the HOA dues in writing. Portal figures conflict, with some reporting around $144 per month and others $575 per quarter, so get the current amount, the billing frequency, and exactly what it covers from the builder or the association documents, not from an aggregator.
Verify the no-CDD status for the specific homesite on the Hillsborough County tax roll. The builder markets no CDD fees, and that is a genuine carrying-cost advantage if it holds, but verify rather than assume, and price the total tax bill on the improved value, not the lot value the seller may be paying today.
Price the options honestly. With closed sales running roughly $848,000 to $1.06 million against a $759,990 base price, the gap between base and delivered is real; get the full option and lot-premium sheet before you anchor on the advertised number.
Confirm the community name on every document. The established Barrington subdivision in Brandon and Barrington at Sterling Hill in Spring Hill share the name; make sure comps, tax records, and school lookups point at Barrington Preserve off Eagles Flight Place, ZIP 33511.
Bring your own representation. The on-site sales team works for the builder; your own agent costs you nothing extra in most builder transactions and reads the contract, the deposit schedule, and the completion-date language for you.
Comparisons
Barrington Preserve competes for the buyer who wants a larger, new, gated single-family home in Brandon without a CDD. Against Hidden Lakes, Homes by WestBay's other gated Artisan Collection community in Brandon, the comparison is nearly apples to apples, same builder, same product family, similar no-CDD positioning, so the decision comes down to lot availability, pricing, and timing between the two sites. Against La Collina, the gated new-construction community on the north side of Brandon, Barrington Preserve offers larger Artisan plans and the south-Brandon Bloomingdale-corridor position, while La Collina offers a more established gated streetscape at generally lower price points. Against the established Bloomingdale area itself, Barrington Preserve trades proven resale history and lower entry pricing for new construction, a builder warranty, and a gate. And against the established Barrington subdivision in Brandon, there is no real overlap beyond the name, different eras, different products, different prices; do not let a portal mix the comps. The honest summary: Barrington Preserve wins on new construction, plan size, the gate, and the no-CDD carry, and gives ground on price, amenities, and resale track record.
Who It Fits
Barrington Preserve fits the buyer who wants a large new single-family home, three-car garage included, in a small gated enclave; the buyer who values a lighter fee stack, with no CDD marketed, over a resort amenity campus; and the buyer who wants the south Brandon and Bloomingdale-corridor position with State Road 60, I-75, and Selmon access. It does not fit the buyer who wants a clubhouse, pool, or golf on site; the buyer shopping under roughly $750,000, since delivered pricing here has run well above the base price; or the buyer who wants an established neighborhood with a long resale history. Anyone considering it should confirm the HOA dues and billing frequency in writing, verify the no-CDD status on the Hillsborough County tax roll, get the full option and lot-premium sheet before anchoring on the base price, and make sure every document refers to Barrington Preserve and not the older Barrington subdivision nearby.
