About this home

Virtually Staged. Some homes just feel easy from the moment you walk in. The Alafia by LGI Homes is one of them. Step through the front door and into a bright, open living space where the kitchen, dining area, and family room naturally come together. Start the coffee without leaving the conversation, host dinner without disappearing into the kitchen, or open the patio door and settle in for a quiet evening at home. With two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, the layout gives you the space you need without more than you need. The secondary bedroom is ready to become a guest room, home office, creative space, or whatever fits your life right now. Modern finishes, a two car garage, and the ease of a brand new home complete a floor plan designed for comfortable everyday living. The Alafia is simple in the best way, with a place for everything and room to make it your own.

Heads up on that tax figure. On new construction, the number in the MLS is often the tax on the bare lot, not the finished home. Expect it to jump once the county reassesses with the house on it. How Florida reassesses new builds

CDD defaults to zero, and that is often wrong.Many Tampa Bay new-construction communities carry a Community Development District assessment of roughly $1,500 to $3,000 a year on top of HOA, and it is rarely included in a builder's payment estimate. Ask whether this address is in a CDD before you budget.

Estimates only. Actual taxes, insurance, and assessments vary by address and change year to year.

What is negotiable on this home?

This listing shows real leverage signals. Here is what its own numbers say.

  • On the market 262 daysStrong signal

    Past six months on a finished home means the builder has been carrying taxes, insurance, and interest on it the whole time. That cost is real and it is why concessions get easier the longer a home sits.

  • Finished and standingWorth knowing

    A completed home with a Certificate of Occupancy is inventory, not a future sale. Builders treat standing inventory very differently from a lot they have not broken ground on.

Where builders actually give

Rarely on the published base price. It sets the comp for every unsold home behind this one, and protecting it protects their appraisals. The real room is in closing cost credits, interest rate buydowns, and upgrades moved into the base. Asking for the right one in the right order is most of the job.
