A Brief History
Entrepreneurs, Visionaries, and a Baseball Legend
How the Villages of Citrus Hills came to be is an interesting story and one we’re proud to tell, because it displays the vision and foresight of two entrepreneurs who shared a dream to develop a very unique master-planned community. That story began in the late 1960s.
Always on the lookout for new opportunities and challenges Citrus Hills co-founders Sam Tamposi, Sr. and Jerry Nash would traverse Florida in their twin DC-3 looking for the perfect location to create the community they had always envisioned. On one such excursion, they discovered acres of open land just miles from the Gulf of Mexico. Sam and Jerry were captivated by the gently rolling hills, the mature live oaks covered in Spanish moss, and surprised because one just doesn’t expect to find land like this in Florida!
They had discovered their new opportunity. Their community was to be thoughtfully planned, designed, and developed so that residents could enjoy a lifestyle unlike any other. Fast forward to the early 1980s and the Villages of Citrus Hills was becoming a reality.
Sam and Jerry enlisted Boston Red Sox legend, and avid fisherman, Ted Williams to assist in the marketing of the property to residents in the northeast, home of the Tamposi-Nash Company. Their fly-down program became exceptionally popular and generated thousands of buyers from New England, and beyond, throughout the 80s and early 90s.
Today the Villages of Citrus Hills is a testament to that vision. In our masterfully planned community, you’ll find incredible amenities, charming neighborhoods, and there are always a wealth of activities, events, and recreational opportunities in which to participate. Our resort-style living is unlike any other in central Florida.
This privately held development is free of debt and financially sound. As a resident, you can be confident that membership and any home association fees are supporting the maintenance of the property. Since its inception, the developers have invested well over $100 million in infrastructure and amenities and new investment in those areas will continue.
