Forest Hills is a compact residential pocket of Ormond Beach, the kind of quiet, unpretentious neighborhood in Volusia County where homes run modest in size and the pace stays low-key. It sits within reach of the larger master-planned communities that define this stretch — from Halifax Plantation to Breakaway Trails and Plantation Bay Golf & Country Club — while offering a more grounded, entry-level feel of its own.
For a buyer today, this is a thin, opportunity-driven market: there's essentially one active listing at $225,000, and just four homes traded hands over the past year. That scarcity cuts both ways — less to choose from, but sellers here got about 98% of asking, so realistic pricing is the rule. If Forest Hills fits, watch the live map closely, because inventory moves before it lingers.
Forest Hills is a community in Ormond Beach, Florida.
