MAKING HOMEOWNERSHIP UNINTIMIDATING

Starlight Homes is literally building on the foundational pillars of two corporate ideals. An Ashton Woods company, Starlight Homes puts an accent on the type of design and personalization that has made the parent company a thriving national builder since 1989.

At the same time, Starlight Homes operates under this simple premise: Home buying, particularly for first-timers, can be overwhelming —so the burden ought to be eased.

The result is appeal for both experienced buyers and novices in need of a bit of handholding. 

Starlight's designs, for example, are markedly efficient, thanks to right-sized HVAC systems, stainless-steel appliances and programmable thermostats, among other components. 

The homes also come standard with granite countertops, upgraded flooring and cabinets, and top-notch materials throughout. 

Similarly, enhanced insulation and framing techniques work to minimize voids and gaps, while low-e glass and higher thermal properties increase energy efficiency. 

Floorplans offer flow from room to room. Affordable quality comes in the form of appliances from companies such as Whirlpool and Moen. Notably, the appliances are sealed or power vented to help avoid the buildup of carbon monoxide.

A reflection of Starlight's thinking: “While our homes are designed to fit your budget, we don’t sacrifice building quality to get those prices.”

For guidance and support, Starlight Homes offers help with everything from selecting the right floorplan to figuring out what you need for closing.

Under its Starlight Advantage Program, a portion of closing costs, prepaid items, reserves and title charges can be paid by the company. The Starlight Warranty Program is available for extra peace of mind. 

In essence, Starlight Homes helps show the way from renting to owning — and making it easy.

Starlight Homes is building in six Central Florida communities: Cherry Lake, in Groveland; Highland Meadows, in Haines City/Davenport; Shearwater, in Mascotte; St. James Crossing, in Winter Haven; Whispering Ridge, in Lake Wales; and Wyndham Reserve, in Sanford. 

Each community can be described as well-planned, lushly landscaped and spacious. Amenities range from gated privacy, oversized lots and conservation views to convenient highway access and plentiful outdoor recreational options.
