Under Construction. Looking for a peaceful place to call home while still being close to everything? Welcome to South Ballast Point, where life feels a little slower and more relaxed, yet you’re only minutes from coffee shops, the Crosstown, and downtown Tampa. Situated on a quiet street with no through traffic, this home offers an ideal setting for everyday living. Bike riding? Check. A two-block walk to the bay? Check. Take the sidewalk all the way to Ballast Point Park or head west to the new MacDill 48 Park. It’s a location designed for enjoying the outdoors and making the most of the neighborhood. Imagine your family here. Inside, you’ll find a tried-and-true floor plan that has been a favorite for so many homeowners. The front of the home features a dedicated office that can easily double as a guest bedroom, complete with a full bath. Just beyond, the space beneath the stairs provides flexible storage—or, if you don’t need the storage, it can become the perfect play nook. As you move through the home, the layout opens into a spacious great-room concept overlooking a covered lanai that spans the entire width of the home and leads to a fenced backyard. Whether you’re entertaining guests or simply enjoying everyday family life, the indoor and outdoor spaces flow together beautifully, allowing everyone to stay connected. Upstairs, the thoughtfully designed layout includes a spacious primary suite plus three additional bedrooms, strategically positioned so they don’t share walls with one another. A bright, open bonus room filled with natural light offers endless possibilities—create a playroom, exercise space, additional home office, or whatever best suits your lifestyle. And then there’s the laundry room—a space you may actually enjoy using. Natural light, a convenient folding table, and a soaking sink make laundry day a little more pleasant and functional. Beyond the floor plan, the quality construction and reputation of the builder shine throughout. This home features impact-glass windows and doors, gutters, and an irrigation system, along with designer cabinetry and a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring an induction cooktop and KitchenAid appliances, including a wine refrigerator and full-size refrigerator. Add in an up-to-date color palette, clean lines, and that unmistakable fresh-new-home feel, and you have a home that combines thoughtful design, quality construction, and an exceptional South Tampa location. Come take a look and let us show you in person what your next home could be.

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.
The tax figure in the MLS looks like a bare-lot assessment. It lists $5,450 a year, while taxing this purchase price works out closer to $18,900. On new construction the county reassesses once the house is finished, so budget from the higher number.

Get the real numbers on this homeWhat is negotiable on this home?
Here is what this listing's numbers say about the builder's position.
On the market 55 daysContext
Still relatively fresh. Expect the sales office to hold firmer here than on inventory that has been sitting.
Reduced $20,000 (2%)Worth knowing
Originally listed at $1,119,990. A builder that has already cut once has acknowledged the first number did not work. That is a different conversation than one who has never moved.
Still under constructionContext
The builder has money in the ground but no finished house to carry, so there is less pressure than on standing inventory. The upside is that some finish selections are usually still open.
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.
