Water, sewer and gas in Citrus Hills, village by village

The short answer

Utilities in Citrus Hills change from village to village, and sometimes from street to street. Terra Vista, Brentwood, Davis Reserve, Canterbury Lake Estates, Greenbriar, Meadowview, Forest Ridge and Cambridge Greens have county water and public sewer, while most of the one-acre villages use septic and several use a private well. Natural gas is confirmed in Terra Vista, Davis Reserve and Belmont Hills and in parts of Brentwood, Clearview Estates, Meadows Estates and Oaks Estates; Canterbury Lake Estates uses propane. Confirm the specific address before you buy.

Which villages have county water and public sewer?

Eight villages have both county water and public sewer: Terra Vista, Brentwood, Davis Reserve, Canterbury Lake Estates, Greenbriar, Meadowview, Forest Ridge and Cambridge Greens. Canterbury Lake Estates is the same in its original plat and in both additions.

Four more have county water with septic: Clearview Estates, Fairview Estates, Celina Hills and most of Belmont Hills. In Belmont Hills, two of the three records reviewed showed septic and one showed public sewer, so check the specific address.

Which villages use a private well or septic?

Kensington Estates, Northridge Estates and Fox Run Estates are on private wells and septic in every record reviewed. The developer's village descriptions give the same answer for Emerald Estates and Presidential Estates, and one MLS record shows a well and septic in Lexington Greens.

Three villages are mixed on water, so check the specific address:

What should a buyer ask about a well or septic system?

A well means the home supplies its own water, and a septic system means the home treats its own wastewater on the lot, so the owner maintains both. Neither is unusual on the larger lots in Citrus Hills. They are simply part of what you inspect.

Your agent can write these inspections into the offer so you have the results before you are committed.

Is it natural gas or propane?

It depends on the village: natural gas is confirmed in some, and Canterbury Lake Estates uses propane. Terra Vista, Davis Reserve and Belmont Hills have natural gas. Clearview Estates has it available to most homes. In Brentwood some homes cook with natural gas and others are all-electric. In Meadows Estates and Oaks Estates, Florida Public Utilities gas shows up on some streets.

Canterbury Lake Estates homes that have gas ranges, dryers or fireplaces run them on propane (LP) gas, which is delivered to a tank at the home. In Celina Hills no natural gas turned up, and one home reviewed runs appliances on propane.

For the other villages, natural gas is not confirmed. The homes checked there were all-electric, which does not prove there is no gas main nearby. Ask Florida Public Utilities about the address.

What changed in Cambridge Greens?

Cambridge Greens moved from septic to public sewer: Citrus County finished building the sewer lines on June 28, 2025 and mailed 365-day notices to connect on July 31, 2025. A home that has not yet connected is still on septic, so ask for proof of connection, and read our Cambridge Greens sewer report for the costs involved.

How do I confirm utilities for one address?

Confirm with the provider and the listing record for that exact address, because a village-level answer is only a starting point.

Our team does this on every home we show. Call (352) 746-0744, or start with the village pages.
