Hidden Ridge by Vitale Homes

Most new construction communities near the Gulf Coast ask buyers to choose between location and quality. Hidden Ridge does not make that trade. Hidden Ridge is a boutique community of 42 homesites in New Port Richey, Pasco County, Florida. Every lot backs to either conservation land or water. The Gulf Coast beaches are 6.5 miles away. There is no CDD, saving buyers up to $90,000 over 30 years compared to CDD communities. Every home is built to the Vitale Signature Series standard. R38 ceiling insulation, foam-injected block walls, ZIP System sheathing, 16-inch on-center framing that is 33% stronger than the industry standard, 3000 PSI concrete, quartz countertops throughout, Kohler and Moen fixtures, Carrara marble window sills, a covered lanai with pavers, and a full smart home package are all included in the base price. Not one of these is an upgrade. Vitale Homes construction standards dramatically reduce monthly energy costs compared to standard new construction, a difference homeowners feel every single month. At the 2026 Tampa Bay Parade of Homes, the Michelangelo floor plan available at Hidden Ridge won the Grand Award in the $650,000 to $699,000 category, competing against more than 70 builders including some of the largest publicly traded homebuilding corporations in the country. Single-story ranch homes ranging from 1,933 to 3,405 square feet. Priced from $483,990. Ideal for empty nesters, snowbirds, beach lifestyle buyers, and Tampa Bay relocators.
