Danbury at Ridgewood Lakes is a newer townhome community built by D.R. Horton in Davenport, Polk County, sited within the larger gated Ridgewood Lakes master-planned golf community off US Highway 27 and minutes from Interstate 4 (D.R. Horton community listing and multiple new-home portals, 2025 to 2026). Marketing describes it as a low-maintenance townhome village centrally located between Orlando and Tampa, with its own resort-style pool and cabana.
The community is built by D.R. Horton, with listings centered on the Pearson floor plan, a two-story concrete-block townhome described as roughly 1,463 square feet with three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a single-car garage, including a peninsula kitchen, stainless appliances, downstairs ceramic tile, a private lanai, and smart-home technology (D.R. Horton and new-home portals, 2025 to 2026). Confirm the exact square footage, bedroom count, garage, and finishes for any specific address, since the floor plan mix here is limited.
Because this is a townhome village inside a master plan, the money is made or lost on the new construction quality and the layered HOA, not just on the address. The drivers are the builder warranty, the Danbury sub-association dues, the separate Ridgewood Lakes master association that funds the guard gate and private roads, any community development district assessment, and the specific lot and floor plan, all of which have to be read from the current association documents and the closing disclosures for the exact townhome.
The pitch is a gated, low-maintenance address between two metros: Ridgewood Lakes carries a staffed guard gate off Ridgewood Lakes Boulevard near Interstate 4 Exit 55, a Ted McAnlis designed golf course operates within the master plan, and US 27 retail, Posner Park, and the Orlando and Tampa job markets are a manageable drive (Ridgewood Lakes master association and golf club listings, 2025 to 2026). The work is the diligence: read both HOA layers, confirm the warranty and any CDD, and verify drive times before you buy the new-build shine.
