About Stonefield Neighborhood
Stonefield is a completed Pulte Homes development in western Kissimmee, built between 1999 and 2002 along Flora Boulevard and Stonefield Parkway. The community's 381 homesites are organized into four distinct sub-sections — Oakcrest, Sterling Park, Parkside Estates, and Stonehurst — each offering a slightly different mix of home types, lot configurations, and settings within the larger gated campus. This variety makes Stonefield one of the more diverse turn-of-the-millennium communities in the Kissimmee corridor, appealing to both attached townhome buyers and single-family home seekers within a single gated address.
The community's most distinctive characteristic is its relationship with the natural landscape. Parkside Estates backs directly onto Shingle Creek Regional Park, the headwaters of the Everglades system, giving a significant share of these homes conservation-line rear exposures with no rear neighbors. Community-wide, multiple ponds and wooded buffers thread through the neighborhoods, and many homes enjoy pond or conservation views from their screened Florida rooms — a feature common across Stonefield's floor plans. Sterling Park, in the community's northeastern corner, consists of attached two- and three-bedroom villas offering a lower-maintenance option within the gated community.
Stonefield's four sub-sections offer meaningful variety in home size and style. Oakcrest, the community's oldest section, and Stonehurst at the northern end feature single-family detached homes across a range of floor plans. Parkside Estates — the section backing Shingle Creek — blends single-story and two-story detached homes on lots that benefit from the conservation backdrop. Screened Florida Rooms, split bedroom layouts, vaulted ceilings, and dine-in kitchens are standard across most plans, and many owners have added private pools over the years given the community's favorable Florida climate. With 381 total homes, Stonefield strikes a balance between community scale and neighborhood intimacy that many larger new-construction communities can no longer offer.

The community's location places it squarely in one of Kissimmee's most accessible residential corridors — close enough to major retail and employment on John Young Parkway (US 17/92) to feel convenient, while sitting just far enough off the main roads to feel genuinely residential. The Loop shopping complex is less than a mile north, and Osceola Parkway provides a direct toll road connection westward toward Walt Disney World and eastward toward downtown Kissimmee.
The community's western and southern boundaries merge with the Shingle Creek conservation corridor, giving Stonefield an ecological backdrop that buffers it from urban encroachment in those directions. To the north and east, the Tapestry master-planned community and adjacent neighborhoods form a residential fabric that makes this stretch of western Kissimmee one of the area's most cohesive family-oriented residential zones.

How Stonefield Compares
Stonefield occupies a distinctive position in western Kissimmee's residential landscape — it is a fully built-out, established gated community in a location that is now surrounded by significantly newer and larger master-planned alternatives. This creates a value dynamic that tends to favor Stonefield buyers: the community offers gated access, resort amenities, and a conservation-adjacent setting at price points that newer construction in the Tapestry corridor or along the Turnpike cannot match for equivalent square footage.
The key differentiator for Stonefield relative to newer competitors is the combination of no CDD fee and a mature, finished community environment. Newer master-planned communities in Kissimmee often carry CDD assessments that can add thousands of dollars per year to the total cost of ownership, and their landscaping and tree canopy require years to match what Stonefield already provides.

💡 Value Proposition: Stonefield delivers gated living, mature landscaping, and conservation-adjacent lots with no CDD fee — making it one of the most cost-effective gated options in western Kissimmee, particularly for buyers who value an established neighborhood character over brand-new construction.

Stonefield HOA & CDD Information
Stonefield is governed by the Stonefield Homeowners Association, which maintains the community's gated entrance, common area landscaping, pool facilities, tennis courts, and clubhouse. The HOA structure reflects the community's design as a fully amenitized residential development with professional management. Because Stonefield was completed as a Pulte-built community in the early 2000s, the HOA is a long-established organization with clear covenants, conditions, and restrictions governing maintenance standards, architectural changes, and rental practices.
Importantly, Stonefield carries no Community Development District (CDD) fee — a meaningful cost advantage compared to many newer Kissimmee communities where CDD assessments appear as separate line items on property tax bills. Buyers should confirm the full scope of HOA coverage with our team, as coverage varies between the single-family sections and Sterling Park's attached villas, where the HOA includes exterior maintenance and lawn service.
