Overview

Experience resort-style living in this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom villa located at 3284 Gorse Court in Highland Lakes, Palm Harbor's premier 55+ community. Offering 1,148 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this home combines comfort, convenience, energy efficiency, and an unmatched amenity-rich lifestyle. Inside, you'll find a bright and inviting open floor plan featuring modern updates throughout, including luxury vinyl flooring, solid surface countertops, and attractive wood cabinetry. The spacious bedrooms offer generous closet space, while the enclosed Florida room, complete with its own A/C vent, provides the perfect year-round retreat for relaxing, entertaining, or pursuing hobbies. This exceptional home is loaded with valuable upgrades, including a whole-home water filtration system, hurricane-impact windows and a hurricane-impact front door, and an owned solar energy system with battery backup. Designed for both efficiency and peace of mind, the solar system powers six essential household circuits during power outages, while delivering remarkably low utility costs, with the owners averaging just $65 per month in electric expenses over the past 12 months. Additional peace of mind comes from the home's high elevation—no flood insurance required. As a resident of Highland Lakes, you'll enjoy access to one of Tampa Bay's most active and desirable 55+ communities. Amenities include unlimited free golf on three private executive courses, heated pools, a whirlpool spa, tennis courts, pickleball, bocce ball, and a vibrant clubhouse offering year-round social events, clubs, workshops, and performing arts programs. For boating and fishing enthusiasts, the exclusive Lake Tarpon Lodge features a private boat ramp, fishing pier, community pontoon boats, and even transportation to waterfront restaurants.
