Huntington at Hunter's Ridge is a gated 55+ community within the larger Hunter's Ridge planned development in Ormond Beach. As a resale community, all buyers experience the Save Our Homes reset — the prior owner's capped assessed value resets to your purchase price, and Volusia County recalculates your tax bill from there. Understanding this reset before making an offer is essential to accurate cost planning.
The community has no golf course bundled into the HOA, which keeps the HOA fee lower than Plantation Bay. Buyers who want golf nearby have access to several Ormond Beach courses within a short drive without a mandatory membership obligation.
HOA Fee — Verify Directly
Huntington at Hunter's Ridge HOA fees are not consistently published in public listings. The figure varies by home type and has been subject to increases. Contact the HOA management company directly — or request the HOA disclosure package as part of any purchase offer — to confirm the current monthly assessment before relying on any estimate you find online.
Volusia County tax at three price points — buyer's actual bill
Ormond Beach sits in Volusia County with a combined millage (county + city + school + special districts) that produces an effective rate of approximately 0.96% after the $50,000 homestead exemption. Ormond Beach city millage runs modestly below Daytona Beach proper. The calculation below uses the buyer's purchase price — which is what your first-year tax bill is based on after the Save Our Homes reset.
| Purchase Price | After $50K Homestead | Est. Annual Tax | Monthly (prorated) |
|---|---|---|---|
| $340,000 | $290,000 | ~$2,784 | ~$232/mo |
| $420,000 | $370,000 | ~$3,552 | ~$296/mo |
| $510,000 | $460,000 | ~$4,416 | ~$368/mo |
