River Chase Sub is a compact single-residential community in the Citrus Park area of northwest Tampa, Hillsborough County. Beazer Homes built the neighborhood in 2004 and 2005, producing roughly 200 homes ranging from approximately 2,180 to 3,276 square feet on a mix of standard and pond-view lots along N River Road and Grand Bayou Court (city-data.com neighborhood profile, 2026; listing records via Stellar MLS).
The community carries a mandatory HOA with fees confirmed in multiple recent listings at approximately a confirmed amount per quarter, and no Community Development District assessment on the property tax bill (as noted in listing descriptions; buyers should verify the current rate before closing). The HOA covers common area maintenance and shared amenities including a playground. Rental is permitted with no mandatory waiting period according to listing descriptions, though buyers should confirm with the HOA board.
Location is a key selling point: the Veterans Expressway (SR 589) is accessible within a few minutes, putting Tampa International Airport roughly 15 minutes away and downtown Tampa within a manageable drive. Citrus Park Town Centre and the Westchase retail corridor are close for everyday shopping. The community sits within the Hillsborough County Public Schools feeder pattern that, for the Citrus Park corridor, includes Citrus Park Elementary, Sergeant Smith Middle School, and Sickles High School, though assignment is by address and buyers should confirm zoning at their specific parcel.
The honest read on a mid-2000s home is condition: roofs from 2004 to 2005 are approaching or past the 20-year window that triggers scrutiny from Florida insurers, so a wind mitigation inspection and a current insurance quote at the exact address are essential diligence. Homes here are in a non-coastal Hillsborough location with flood exposure generally lower than waterfront or low-lying areas, but verifying the FEMA zone for the specific parcel is still advisable.
