Waterset is a newer master-planned community that technically sits in Riverview's zip code but is closely associated with the broader Apollo Beach area. Homes here were built from the mid-2010s onward by builders including Homes by WestBay, David Weekley, and Taylor Morrison. Prices currently range from about $380K to $650K depending on lot size and floor plan.
The community is built around an active outdoor lifestyle. Waterset has miles of paved trails, a resort-style pool and splash pad, fitness center, sports courts, dog park, and community garden. The trail system connects different sections of the neighborhood and links to surrounding natural areas along the Alafia River corridor.
Homes are modern Florida construction with open floor plans, impact windows, and energy-efficient systems. Most are 3 to 5 bedrooms in the 1,800 to 3,200 square foot range. Both HOA and CDD fees apply, which is standard for newer master-planned communities in Hillsborough County. The total monthly carrying cost beyond your mortgage can be meaningful, so get the exact numbers before writing an offer.
School zoning includes Waterset Charter School (K-5), which is on-site, plus Eisenhower Middle and Lennard High School. The location provides reasonable commuter access via US-41 and I-75. For a full comparison of neighborhoods in the area, see our guide to the best neighborhoods in Apollo Beach.
