Two Ridges Road Is Being Extended Through the Ashton Oaks Corridor — And It's Running Alongside Wesley Chapel's Newest Build-to-Rent Community

WESLEY CHAPEL, FL — The established Ashton Oaks neighborhood off Wesley Chapel Boulevard is getting a front-row seat to one of the most active development corridors in Pasco County right now. Two major projects are simultaneously underway on both sides of the community — a road extension that will open up new connectivity along CR-54, and a brand-new build-to-rent townhome community that represents a first-of-its-kind concept for the Tampa market.

Two Ridges Road Extension — What's Being Built 

The northern second leg of Two Ridges Road — approximately 0.7 miles in length — is rapidly taking shape. The extension will run north to the existing traffic signal at CR-54 and River Glen Blvd., across SR-54 from the main entrance to Avalon Park Wesley Chapel. Crews are currently performing grading, drainage, and landscaping work across the corridor, steadily preparing the site for curbs, paving, and final roadway construction.

At the current pace, locals can likely expect the Two Ridges Road construction to be near or fully completed by the end of 2026. Once finished, the new extension will become the southern leg of the existing CR-54 and River Glen Blvd. intersection, opening access to future development opportunities on the southwest corner of the intersection, including a planned commercial parcel and the anticipated second phase of the nearby Valencia Ridge 55+ community.

HARMON Ashton Oaks — Build-to-Rent Townhomes Coming This Year 

Running alongside the road project is the groundbreaking of HARMON Ashton Oaks — Crescent Communities' first build-to-rent development in the Tampa market. Set across 28 acres at the intersection of State Road 54 and Ashton Oaks Boulevard, the community will feature 115 three and four bedroom two-story townhomes averaging more than 1,800 square feet. Each residence will include modern finishes, spacious interiors, private yards, and two-car garages.

"HARMON Ashton Oaks will introduce a new standard of rental living to the Tampa market — one that combines the comforts of a single-family home with the ease, energy, and connection of a professionally managed community," said Tony Chen, Senior Managing Director of Single-Family Build-to-Rent at Crescent Communities.

Beyond the homes, residents will have access to a resort-style pool with cabanas and a grilling area, a sports field that doubles as an event lawn, and a dedicated dog park.

The Bigger Picture 

Whether it's new roads, new rooftops, or entirely new ways of living, the area surrounding Ashton Oaks is rapidly transforming as Wesley Chapel's growth engine continues pushing eastward along CR-54. While Ashton Oaks itself may not be the focus of the development boom, this established neighborhood now finds itself directly between two major projects that reflect the area's continued evolution.
