About Forest Ridge

Beverly Hills · Citrus County, Florida

Forest Ridge is a new construction HOA community in Beverly Hills by D.R. Horton offering attainable homes, currently selling. Wooded community with HOA and natural amenities in Beverly Hills.

D.R. Horton is America's largest homebuilder by volume — a scale advantage that translates to purchasing power on materials and land, faster build cycles than smaller builders, and a national warranty program backed by a Fortune 500 company. The Express and Emerald collections extend the brand from entry-level attainable homes to premium products, with Express typically being the most aggressively priced new construction in any given market.
