10734 Osprey Landing Way is a 1.8-acre canal-front homesite in Stonelake Ranch, a 24/7 guard-gated community in Thonotosassa, Florida 33592, in Hillsborough County. The lot faces southeast on a primary deep-water canal. Its water views take in natural wetlands, native foliage and tall bald cypress trees. The canal connects directly to Lake Thonotosassa, an 880-acre all-sports freshwater lake that is the largest lake in Hillsborough County. That combination of acreage, gated security and boating access is rare in the Tampa Bay area. The lot's elevation gives architects more design options. It could support a custom home with a walkout lower level or a home spread across multiple levels. There is also potential for a private boat dock in the backyard, subject to approvals, with navigable water access from the canal into Lake Thonotosassa. The lake allows powerboating, waterskiing, wakeboarding, jet skiing and tubing, and it is known for trophy bass fishing. Stonelake Ranch covers 680 acres of rolling countryside and has only 160 estate sites. That keeps density low and leaves plenty of open green space and privacy between homes. Community amenities center on the Lakeside Lodge clubhouse. The Lodge has broad wraparound porches, gathering spaces, a social kitchen for private events and a fully equipped fitness center. There is also a private community boat ramp and dock access. This lot is close to the Lakeside Lodge. Inside the community, Hendry Lake is a private 37-acre, non-motorized lake that serves as a waterfowl sanctuary. It is used for kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding. Stonelake Ranch is equestrian-friendly, and community rules allow up to one horse per acre. More than 240 acres are set aside as common area and open meadows, and a network of 40 ft wide fenced riding and walking trails winds through the property. Stonelake Ranch feels rural, but it is still well connected to the rest of Tampa Bay. I-75 and I-4 give quick access to the region's business and cultural centers. Downtown Tampa, the University of South Florida and Moffitt Cancer Center are about 20 to 25 minutes away. Publix and other grocery stores, restaurants, medical clinics, and public and private schools are about 10 to 15 minutes from the front gate. Tampa International Airport (TPA), Tampa Executive Airport, major sports venues, Gulf Coast beaches and Orlando's theme parks are all within reach for day trips and weekend getaways. Key facts: 1.8 acres, southeast-facing, on a primary deep-water canal with direct access to 880-acre Lake Thonotosassa, in a 24/7 guard-gated community with 160 homesites on 680 acres. The community is equestrian-friendly, and a clubhouse, fitness center, boat ramp and trails are included. Stonelake Ranch Approved Builders are available for appointments to help design and build a custom home on this site that fits the lot's water views and elevation.
