Inside Kings Ridge
Kings Ridge is a mature 55-and-older gated community spanning 2,088 single-family homes across 15 neighborhoods on the rolling hills of Clermont, Florida. Developed primarily by Lennar between the mid-1990s and early 2000s, the community offers single-story ranch-style residences featuring open floor plans and low-maintenance exteriors, with homes ranging from approximately 1,170 to 2,616 square feet.
The community’s centerpiece is a 25,000-square-foot Royal Club, complemented by two 18-hole championship golf courses where nearly half the homes border at least one course. Residents enjoy three heated swimming pools, dual fitness centers, ballroom, eight different sports courts, billiards and card rooms, arts studio, and hobby spaces. A full-time activities director coordinates dozens of clubs and social activities year-round, from bingo and bridge to organized trips and dances. The HOA fee structure ranges from $200 to $500 monthly depending on neighborhood and home type, bundling cable, water, sewer, trash removal, complete lawn care, and 24-hour guarded gate access into one fee.
Typical home prices range from $240,000 to $474,000, with median sales around $320,000-$335,000 as of 2026. The community’s location on U.S. Highway 27, three miles south of State Route 50, provides convenient access to shopping at the adjacent Publix plaza via golf cart, as well as area amenities including Lake Louisa State Park and the Palatlakaha River.
Homes reflect diverse architectural styles from pitched-roof ranch to Mediterranean-inspired designs with tile roofs and arched entries. Many homes feature oversized lots, golf course views, and three-car garages with designated golf cart parking. HOA regulations require age restriction (at least one resident 55+), professional exterior painting included in fees, and architectural review for modifications. Kings Ridge operates as an active-adult community centered on resort-style amenities, golf, and organized community engagement, so school zoning is not part of the neighborhood’s design.
