This established neighborhood offers the perfect blend of affordability and community spirit in one of Sarasota's most desirable master-planned developments. Experience quality home ownership without the premium price tag, all while enjoying the benefits of Palmer Ranch's prime positioning.

Neighborhood Character

Stonebridge represents one of Palmer Ranch's most established and welcoming communities. With approximately 300 single-family homes built by US Home between 1996 and 2001, this ungated neighborhood maintains a mature, family-friendly atmosphere. The community has developed a strong sense of belonging over its 25+ year history, with many original owners still calling Stonebridge home. This stability creates an authentic neighborhood feel where residents genuinely care about their community and look out for one another.

Housing Options

Homes in Stonebridge feature the contemporary design aesthetic popular in the 1990s, offering timeless appeal and functional layouts. The neighborhood consists entirely of single-family homes with 3-4 bedroom configurations, providing ideal spaces for growing families or those needing home offices and guest rooms. These well-built residences showcase the quality construction US Home was known for, with thoughtful floor plans that maximize both private and common living areas for comfortable daily life and entertaining.

Pricing and Fees

Stonebridge delivers exceptional value within Palmer Ranch, with homes currently ranging from $500,000 to $800,000 and a median price around $600,000. This pricing represents significant savings compared to newer Palmer Ranch developments while still providing access to all the master-planned community benefits. One of Stonebridge's most appealing features is the remarkably low HOA fees, typically ranging from $100-200 monthly. These minimal dues keep homeownership costs manageable while covering essential community maintenance.

Amenities & Lifestyle

While Stonebridge keeps amenities intentionally simple to maintain low fees, residents enjoy a community swimming pool and cabana area that serves as a natural gathering spot for neighbors. The neighborhood's crown jewel is its scenic setting, with beautiful lakes and preserve views throughout the community creating a tranquil, natural environment. The low HOA structure means homeowners aren't paying for extensive amenities they may not use, making this an ideal choice for budget-conscious buyers who prefer to allocate their recreation budget elsewhere.
