Ridgewood – New Model Homes Now Open

Your search for a new home conveniently close to Tampa’s big-city living yet filled with suburban charm ends at Ridgewood in Riverview, FL!

This popular community with resort-style amenities, lakefront views, and beautiful new construction homes recently introduced two stunning, brand-new model homes, showcasing the homeowner-favorite Parker and Begonia home plans. Both homes exhibit modern features and finishes, and a handful of the many design options available at Highland Homes' design studio.

At 1,715 square feet with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the Parker is a homeowner favorite and it's easy to see why. From the Craftsman-style exterior, the Parker welcomes with an open living space that includes a spacious gathering room, an open kitchen with a large counter-height island, and a bright and airy dining café. You'll love the built-in storage and convenience solutions such as a walk-in pantry and a convenient drop zone at the garage entry. And, enjoy plentiful outdoor living space on the front porch or covered lanai.

The model design team, the same designers you will work with to personalize your new home at the Highland Homes Personal Selection Studio, decorated the Parker model with a blend of soft grays and beiges, also known as "greige" tones. The color experts at Pantone named gray as one of 2021's Colors of the Year influencing its use in many home designs, and it can be nicely paired up with almost any style of decor. In this model home, light wood furnishings and flooring create a pleasing aesthetic blending warm and cool tones.

The spacious owner suite in the Parker features a luxurious en-suite bath with a separate shower and garden tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in wardrobe. As you can see, the suite can comfortably fit a king-sized bedroom set!

The secondary bedrooms in the Parker share a convenient hall bath and linen closet. In this model, two bedrooms are creatively decorated as a teen’s and kids’ room with inviting, and playful themed colors and decor, while the front bedroom is decorated as a home office showcasing the versatility of this 4-bedroom home.

The Begonia stands as the second model home at Ridgewood and offers 1,486 square feet of living space with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an inviting open layout. The split plan design of the Begonia provides privacy for the owner suite, placing it in the rear of the home with the secondary bedrooms upfront. In between, you'll find a spacious gathering room, sunny dining café, and an open kitchen with a counter-height island and a convenient pantry.

In the Begonia, the design team selected white and gray neutral tones, offset with rich navy blue and gold accents. The wide open space available in the gathering room lends itself to a variety of decorative opportunities. Our designers chose to place a large entertainment unit on the wall opposite the kitchen, leaving plenty of room for a comfy sofa, loveseat, two armchairs, and accent tables. Stacey Antonakos-Perez, the Manager at the Studio and our principal model designer, said “The gathering room in the Begonia is so fun to decorate because of the endless ways it can be set up.”

The secondary bedrooms in the Begonia show how the bedrooms can suit various needs, with a sailor-themed nursery and an inviting guest bedroom. This home presents itself as a great starter home or home for empty nesters.
