About This Home
Live Minutes from Tampa's Iconic Crystal Lagoon – Now $429,900
Imagine waking up in a home where resort-style living isn't a vacation—it's your everyday life. Welcome to 16830 Anchor Root Street in Medley at Southshore Bay, a premier 55+ gated community where you're just minutes from Tampa's world-famous crystal lagoon.
This 2021-built, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home feels brand new and shows like a model. With over 2,100 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed space, vaulted ceilings, crown molding, and an open layout filled with natural light, this home was built for those who appreciate quality and comfort. WHY THIS HOME STANDS OUT? The kitchen is a chef's dream—maple soft-close cabinetry, custom sliding pantry shelving, and elegant granite countertops. But it's the owner's investment in smart, lasting upgrades that truly sets this home apart:
? Rooftop solar panels with 50-year transferable warranty – Drastically reduced electric bills + annual TECO credits for excess energy produced
? Whole-home water softener & reverse osmosis system
? Luxury plank flooring throughout (even in the golf cart garage)
? Motorized lanai roller blind with remote
? Window shutters throughout
? Custom closet shelving
? Stone accent walls & architectural details
? 2-car garage + golf cart garage
Step outside to your screened-in lanai—your personal retreat for morning coffee, sunset views, or entertaining friends. Mature Florida palms frame the home, and the automated sprinkler system keeps everything looking pristine year-round.
Resort Living Without the Resort Prices
Medley at Southshore Bay isn't just a neighborhood—it's a lifestyle. Your HOA dues include: Ultra-high-speed fiber internet & cable TV (no separate bills!)
Lawn irrigation water & automated sprinkler system (your yard stays green without lifting a finger)
Clubhouse access with restaurant, fitness center, pickleball courts, social activities & events
Unlimited crystal lagoon access (normally $45/day for guests—you get in FREE + 25 guest passes annually) Total Monthly HOA: ~$435 | Quarterly: ~$373 (covering what would normally cost you $200+ separately for internet, cable, landscaping, and amenities)
When you factor in what you're NOT paying for—internet, cable, lawn service, gym memberships, entertainment—the HOA becomes an investment in simplicity and quality of life.
The Solar Advantage
Let's talk savings. With solar panels covering your energy needs, many owners see electric bills under $20/month (or even credits). That's money back in your pocket every single month, and the 50-year warranty transfers to you—adding long-term value and peace of mind.
This is Move-In Ready! No projects. No compromises. Just unlock the door and start living your best life in one of Tampa Bay's most sought-after 55+ communities. Priced to sell at $429,900. Schedule your private showing today.
