Along the entire eastern shore of prestigious Lake Thonotosassa, there is a private expanse of captivating scenery and alluring tranquility known as Stonelake Ranch. This gated, master-planned community is a “residential preserve” guided by the same reverence for Florida land that once drew native peoples to this lakeshore centuries ago.
Stonelake Ranch is a site of unparalleled beauty and enduring character that has withstood the test of time. This is Florida’s natural environment at its finest: Acres of rolling hills dip toward a sun-washed lake, stretching wide beneath a blanket of blue sky. Here harmony is undisturbed.
At Stonelake Ranch, families don’t merely build custom homes, they build custom lives of individual expression - all against the private, protected backdrop of Florida land and lake. These custom, large acreage home sites, as well as a limited number of homes behind the gates, preserve the calming sense of freedom found in this area. The lake and lake house as well as the equestrian and nature trails provide exhilarating invitations to experience this uncommon way of life in a place like no other.
This is Florida land that is truly rich in history, echoing the footfalls of Native Americans who settled in the area hundreds of years ago. Early Florida Seminoles resided along the entire eastern shore of what we now call Lake Thonotosassa. These earliest settlers called the lake “Thonotosassa” meaning “Lake of Flints” in honor of the abundant stones found here for the making of tools and spears.
For generations, this land has been held in trust by a family of ranchers, who have passed to new stewards the promise of its continued natural beauty and deep tranquility. As a result, from this rare backdrop has sprung a way of life as unique and boundless as the sweeping landscape, shimmering waters and endless sky. |
