Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge

Independent Assessment

Four Seasons is K. Hovnanian's dedicated active-adult brand nationally, and this community's builder and directory pages consistently describe it as a new active-adult 55+ community, giving reasonably strong confidence in its age-restricted status even though the recorded declaration was not independently reviewed. One notable inconsistency surfaced: while the community is widely reported as 'sold out' at its planned 229-home total, at least one directory snapshot described only 41 single-family homes as completed at that point -- a discrepancy that could not be resolved, and which may reflect a stale or partial data snapshot rather than the community's true final home count. Buyers and this site's editors should treat the 229-home figure as the planned total and the 41-home figure as a point-in-time completion count that should be re-verified before being treated as final.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers who want a fully built-out, sold-out K. Hovnanian Four Seasons community with an established HOA and settled neighborhood character -- rather than an actively-under-construction site -- will find Chestnut Ridge appealing, particularly those who prioritize the brand's clubhouse and pool amenities and a Lorain County location convenient to both Elyria and the greater Cleveland area.

Homes, Builders & Development History

K. Hovnanian Homes began construction on Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge in 2019, building under its dedicated Four Seasons active-adult brand. The community was planned for 229 single-family homes on nearly 100 acres off Chestnut Ridge Road near Routes 10 and 83 in Elyria. The community is reported as sold out in current directory listings, though one source's completion snapshot of 41 homes suggests some uncertainty about the exact final built-out total; buyers should confirm the true final home count with the HOA or a local agent.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

A published, current community-wide resale price range for Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge was not confirmed. As a sold-out K. Hovnanian Four Seasons community, pricing now depends entirely on individual resale listings; buyers should request current active listings and recent closed comparables from a local agent familiar with the Elyria/Lorain County market.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge is reported sold out by K. Hovnanian, meaning current purchase opportunities are resale-only. Resale buyers should request a full independent inspection, the HOA's current financials and reserve study, and clarification of the community's actual final built-out home count given the discrepancy between the planned 229-home total and a 41-home completion snapshot.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge are subject to Lorain County and City of Elyria property tax administration. The applicable school district tax rate, HOA master insurance coverage, and reserve-fund details were not independently confirmed; buyers should request the HOA's current financials and reserve study before purchasing.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge is organized around a central clubhouse offering fitness, billiards, and multipurpose gathering spaces, complemented by an outdoor pool, pickleball courts, and walking trails spread across the community's nearly 100-acre site. As a now sold-out, fully built (or nearly built) community, it offers a more settled, established lifestyle than the region's newer, still-under-construction 55+ developments.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge is located in Elyria, Lorain County, off Chestnut Ridge Road near Routes 10 and 83, giving residents convenient access to Elyria's shopping, dining, and medical facilities as well as a reasonable commute into the greater Cleveland metro area.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Four Seasons is K. Hovnanian's dedicated national active-adult brand, and this community's builder and directory pages consistently and directly describe it as a new active-adult 55+ community. The community's recorded declaration and HOA governing documents were not independently reviewed; buyers should confirm current age-verification requirements and occupancy rules directly with the HOA before purchasing.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

Because the community is reported sold out, buyers here are essentially limited to resale inventory rather than new construction with builder warranties; current resale pricing, the specific final built home count, and the current HOA fee amount could not be confirmed, all of which should be confirmed directly with a local agent and the HOA before purchasing. The apparent discrepancy between the 229-home planned total and a 41-home completion snapshot also warrants direct confirmation of the community's actual final size.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Within Lorain County's 55+ market, Four Seasons at Chestnut Ridge is a mid-sized, now fully sold-out K. Hovnanian community, smaller in planned scale than Del Webb Hickory Greens (622 homes) but larger than NorthBorough (58 homes) in nearby North Ridgeville. Buyers who specifically want the K. Hovnanian Four Seasons brand experience in Elyria, rather than a still-actively-building community, will find Chestnut Ridge the more established option, comparable in market position to the builder's other Lorain County community, Morningside at Martin's Run in Lorain.
