River Ridge

River Ridge at a glance

River Ridge is a single-family new-construction community in Clarksville, in Montgomery County, Tennessee, with its sales presence at 2340 Woodmeadow Drive in the 37043 ZIP code. It is an actively selling Meritage Homes community, currently in its Grand Opening pricing phase — which means it is early in its sales life, with homes coming to market and pricing set at the builder's opening figures. Because it is selling now rather than fully built out, buyers can typically find a mix of plans and homesites depending on what is released and available when you look.

What you are buying here is brand-new single-family construction from $389,920, with four- to five-bedroom layouts ranging roughly 1,834 to 3,000-plus square feet, open-concept floor plans, and luxury primary suites, plus a community clubhouse and pool. Sitting about 13 miles south of Fort Campbell, River Ridge tends to draw a wide mix of buyers — including relocating and military-connected households who want a brand-new home within a reasonable drive of post. Because we tour new-construction communities across the region constantly, this is one we walk relocating and out-of-state buyers through when they ask about new construction in the Clarksville market.

Who builds in River Ridge

River Ridge is built by Meritage Homes, a national homebuilder, and is a single-builder community — meaning the floor plans, included features, and pricing all come from one builder's program, which makes it straightforward to compare home to home. Meritage builds the full lineup of single-family plans here, so the variation you will see comes from choosing among that builder's plans, elevations, and available homesites rather than juggling several builders' standards at once.

As your buyer's agents, we can pull Meritage's current plan availability, model-home hours, and any standing incentives, and walk the included-features list with you so you understand what is standard versus an upgrade before you commit to a homesite. We represent buyers in new construction at little or no cost to you, and because we are in these communities regularly we help you compare River Ridge against other Clarksville options on the things that actually matter to your move.

Homes & floor plans

Homes in River Ridge are single-family, with four- to five-bedroom plans ranging roughly 1,834 to 3,000-plus square feet and starting from $389,920. Layouts are open-concept, and the homes feature luxury primary suites — the kind of larger, well-appointed owner's bedroom and bath buyers often look for in a new build.

One thing worth knowing about River Ridge is how much Meritage includes as standard. Homes here come with fully sodded yards, a refrigerator, a washer and dryer, and window blinds throughout — items that are frequently treated as upgrades or after-purchase expenses elsewhere. That can change the real out-of-pocket math when you compare communities, which is exactly the kind of side-by-side we help buyers run.

Meritage publishes its current River Ridge plans, square footage, and elevations on its official community page. We are happy to pull the live plan list and walk it with you so you are comparing what is actually available and released right now, not a snapshot that may have changed.

Amenities & community life

River Ridge offers a community clubhouse and a swimming pool — shared amenities that give residents gathering and recreation space without leaving the neighborhood. For buyers weighing new-construction communities, an amenity package like this is part of the day-to-day value, and it is one of the points we help you compare across Clarksville options.

As an actively selling community in its Grand Opening phase, River Ridge is still filling in, so the streetscape and which amenities are open and finished can evolve as the neighborhood grows. When you tour, we will help you confirm what is complete today versus what is planned.

Location, access & schools

River Ridge sits off Woodmeadow Drive and Goldfinch Way in Clarksville's 37043 ZIP code, which falls primarily within Montgomery County. The community is about 13 miles south of Fort Campbell, putting it within a manageable commute of post — a meaningful consideration for military-connected buyers — while keeping you in the broader Clarksville area.

Homes in River Ridge are zoned to Barksdale Elementary, Rossview Middle School, and Rossview High School (Clarksville-Montgomery County School System). School zoning can change, so we recommend confirming the current assignment for any specific address directly with CMCSS before you write an offer, and we are glad to help you do that.

What to verify before you buy

New construction moves quickly, and the details that matter most are the ones most likely to change between when a page is written and when you write an offer. Before you commit at River Ridge, confirm the current price for the specific plan and homesite, which plans and quick-move-in homes are actually available, the community's current phase and release schedule, the HOA dues and what they cover, and the lot specifics for your homesite. We pull live numbers and availability for you, so you are deciding on today's facts rather than a list price that may have moved.

We will also confirm the current included-features list and any builder incentives in writing, walk the contract and build timeline with you, and verify school zoning for your exact address. These are the items we routinely check for buyers so there are no surprises between contract and closing.
