4748 HICKORY OAK DRIVE Set amid a tranquil expanse of protected woodlands, this newly built residence in Southern Hills Plantation embodies the quiet elegance and enduring craftsmanship that define exceptional living. The home rests against a natural backdrop of trees with no rear neighbors, creating a rare sense of seclusion within one of the region’s most distinguished private golf communities. Inside, light flows through open, thoughtfully composed spaces where every detail reveals a dedication to both artistry and function. The gourmet kitchen stands as the centerpiece—a refined blend of form and precision featuring professional-grade appliances, a pot filler, a bespoke coffee bar area, and a sunlit breakfast nook designed for unhurried mornings. Waterfall-edge quartz surfaces and an expansive hidden pantry lend the kitchen a seamless, sculptural quality that is both inviting and remarkably practical. Beyond the interior, sliding glass doors open to an extended covered lanai where indoor comfort meets the open air. The outdoor kitchen, complete with sink and refrigerator, invites year-round entertaining, with generous space for both dining and lounge seating. Here, gatherings unfold against the serene preserve, offering a setting as suited to lively evenings as it is to quiet reflection. The primary suite and accompanying baths echo the serenity of a private spa—rainfall showers, refined fixtures, and custom lighting create a sanctuary of calm. Handcrafted wooden closets, illuminated with integrated LEDs, elevate everyday living with a sense of order and intention. A three-car garage and extended driveway provide ample space for vehicles, storage, and guests. Beyond the front door, Southern Hills Plantation Club offers a lifestyle shaped by world-class amenities, including the private Pete Dye Signature golf course, a classic resort-style clubhouse with dining, and a full-service fitness and aquatic center with resort-style pool. Tennis and pickleball courts, walking trails, and the gated setting further enhance the sense of retreat while remaining within easy reach of Tampa Bay. From its carefully curated interiors to its exceptional club environment, this residence is an invitation to experience luxury living that feels both graceful and timeless.
