About this home
Welcome to easy, low-maintenance living in the desirable Briar Creek 55+ resident-owned community surrounded by beautiful mature trees in Northern Tampa Bay. The fee-simple land ownership means no lot rent! with a low monthly HOA fee of $250 that covers water, trash pick-up and lawn care along with community amenities which include a heated pool, clubhouse, social activities, pickleball, RV/Boat storage and allows golf carts and cat or dog up to 25 lbs. Briar Creek is conveniently located and close to many dining options, shopping for every need, gorgeous beaches, golfing, two major airports, hospitals, sporting events and everything in between and around the Tampa Bay Area. This meticulously maintained 2 bed / 2 bath updated home offers approximately 2000 sq ft of spacious comfort and offers a wonderful, light-filled open layout that does not need a new roof, or vapor barrier, has solid flooring throughout and new windows plus awning hurricane shutters with a 1-year-old HVAC system. Modern kitchen appliances and plenty of storage spaces, custom wainscoting and new entry doors, a large, enclosed side patio with separate utility room and a covered carport. The home is at a high elevation and not in a flood zone. Not much to do in this home that is move-in ready and ready for its new owner! A Must See!
Local Insight
At $139/sqft, this 1981 manufactured home is priced competitively for the category, but you're looking at a 43-year-old unit in a 55+ community with a $250 monthly HOA that could increase over time—factor that into your long-term costs alongside typical manufactured home depreciation. The real appeal here is Safety Harbor's location with no flood zone risk and reasonable walkability, though you'll want to inspect the roof, HVAC, and foundation carefully given the age and confirm what the HOA actually covers and whether the community has capital improvement plans that might spike fees. A 0.1-acre lot means minimal exterior space and zero land equity, so this makes sense primarily as affordable retirement housing rather than an investment.
