Retired lifestyle within 5 miles of Florida's west coast

Located on Florida's natural coast and boasting the soaring pines and oaks to prove it, Heritage Pines is a well-maintained, deed-restricted, 55-plus community in Pasco County. Just about 45 miles north of the Tampa International Airport and not far from Gulf of Mexico beaches, this gated golf-cart community has 24/7 security and a long list of amenities and activities, from hot tubs and swimming pools to horseshoes and billiards to a woodworking shop and a spa. "There's a lot of good communities like this around here, but I'd say this one is special because of how secure it is. They don't let anyone in unless you're on the approved list," says Dennis Rosa, an associate broker with BAM Realty Advisors Inc. "And the golf course there is really, really, really good. Plus, there are many great restaurants and amenities on site as well." The clubhouse boasts a restaurant and bar, a fully stocked library and a performing arts center, where banquets, performances and dances are regularly held.

Mediterranean influences span villas, single-family residences and golf course estates

There are over 1,400 homes in Heritage Pines, including attached and detached villas, single-family homes and larger estate homes. Often, homes include two-car garages that double as a screened-in porch. "Villas tend to be a little bit cheaper. They run anywhere from about $230,000 up to $300,000, even maybe a little bit more in some cases. It depends on the villa and whether it's on the golf course or not," Rosa says. Single-family homes often have features typical of Mediterranean and Spanish Revival, such as stucco exteriors. Homebuyers can expect a price range of just under $300,000 for a three-bedroom residence to as high as $500,000.

Locals enjoy golfing, Hunters Lake and Florida's West Coast

The Heritage Pines golf course is an 18-hole championship course designed to complement the natural landscape, combining scenic views with sweeping fairways. Residents can choose from different golf packages that cater to their skill level. The course is not open to the public and is owned and operated by its residents, making it unique from most golf courses in the state. Designed by the well-known golf course architect Ron Garl, the course also features a practice sand bunker, a full driving range and a pro shop. Nearby Aripeka Sandhills Preserve protects over 200 acres of hardwood hammocks, Florida swamps and piney sandhills. The preserve offers two miles of trails along with fishing and picnicking opportunities. Water sports are also a popular pastime for residents. Heritage Pines sits across from Hunters Lake. For a day on the Florida coastline, the white sands of Hernando Beach are 5 miles west.
