Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2009
Darlina and Andy Barber from upstate New York looking forward to moving to Florida when we retire. Until that time we offer our home as a vacation rental.
Why the Owner Chose Brooksville
The Spring Hill/Brooksville area is where my mom lived for over 20 years. We like the area better then the east coast of Florida. There is less hustle n' bustle, plus this area of the gulf coast has had no storm damage since 1960.
The Unique Benefits of this House
The weather is excellent, and everything you need is close by. We like Busch Gardens and have been there many times. Ten minutes from our home is Pines Island Beach. It's a cute, quiet, well kept beach that is all we need for some sun and leisure. The new Casino in Tampa has drawn our attention. It is a great place to spend a few hours, and is a short drive from the house.
