As of March 2025This Mediterranean Villa offers resort-style living in Highland Lakes, Palm Harbor's premier 55+ golf community.

Tile and engineered hardwood floors are present throughout the home. Dining room has built-in features and view of manicured grounds. The master suite offers crown molding, a large walk-in closet, and the lovely en-suite with a double sink maple vanity with granite, ample drawers and cabinets for storage, raised ceiling, and step-in shower. The large second bedroom includes a walk-in closet and is located next to the second bathroom, offering convenience and privacy for guests. The spacious living room has a coat closet and views of both the front and back yards. The family room's large hurricane-impact window provides a panoramic view of the backyard and patio, ideal for those barbecue events or sitting and gazing at the trees and open space, the benefit of having no neighbors or homes behind the villa. Oversized garage with remote door opener, epoxy floor coat, and built in cabinet/workbench accommodates car (and golf cart if workbench removed), as well as kayaks, bicycles and tools. Pull-down steps access abundant attic storage above garage. Low HOA fees provide impressive array of benefits: lawn service, trimming, sprinklers and their maintenance, exterior watering, cable TV, high-speed broadband internet, trash removal and exterior painting.

The Arts and Crafts building offers workshops in woodworking, painting, ceramics, and more. Many other classes are offered, from pickleball to water aerobics. The clubhouse at Highland Lakes hosts a variety of amenities including concerts, movies, theater shows, dining, and dancing. It features rooms designated for billiards, card games, and a library. Serving as the community hub, it fosters connections among residents and offers diverse entertainment options. Residents organize various clubs within the clubhouse to engage in activities such as playing games, discussing travel plans, and exploring other interests. The second heated pool is found at Lake Tarpon Lodge, a tropical oasis on the banks of Lake Tarpon. Here you can swim or soak in the jacuzzi tub, fish from the pier, dock your boat, enjoy a picnic at water’s edge, or take a tour of the lake on one of the community pontoon boats. Adjacent to Lake Tarpon Lodge is the gated and secure RV and boat storage yard which is yours to use at no extra cost.
