Sereno is a gated master-planned community in Wimauma in southern Hillsborough County, recorded on the DG Farms plat and marketed under the Sereno name (DG Farms CDD records and Metro Development Group community materials, 2026). It sits near US 301 with I-75 access, roughly a half-hour south of the Tampa core, and was planned with resort-style amenities and larger homesites than much of the surrounding new construction.
Community materials and the DG Farms CDD describe amenities including a clubhouse, a resort-style swimming pool, a fitness center, tennis and basketball or sport courts, a playground, and a dog park, with the CDD maintaining common areas, entry features, landscaping, and lighting (DG Farms CDD, 2026). The gated entry and the amenity package are the draw, so confirm which amenities are open and complete for the phase you are buying in.
This is a multi-builder community: listings and builder pages show homes delivered by Lennar and by D.R. Horton across phases, with Metro Development Group as the master developer (builder community pages, 2026). That means floor plans, finish levels, and warranties vary by phase and address, so read the specific home rather than a community-wide average, and confirm the recorded phase, such as DG Farms Ph 6A, on the listing.
Because a CDD is layered on top of the HOA, the honest read is the total carrying cost: HOA dues plus the CDD assessment that usually appears on the tax bill. Wimauma is a fast-growing corridor with heavy approved supply nearby, so the work is reading the dues and CDD math, confirming the phase and builder, and picking the lot and product that hold value as the area fills in.
