Summerfield is a busy neighborhood filled with retail amenities and Florida charm, complete with meandering golf carts. “This community is amazing and there’s so much to do around here. If you’re bored, it’s your own fault,” says Brian Kiger who works in the pro shop at Eagle Ridge Golf Club. “The amenities around here are just great. If you want to hike, golf, paint or go rock climbing, whatever you want to do, they’ve got a group for every kind of interest.”
Stucco ranch-style homes are the norm
Homes in Summerfield are mostly stucco, traditional ranch-style homes with two-car garages and cozy front porches. Prices can range anywhere from $145,000 mobile homes to $865,000, ten-acre, equestrian community estates. Homes typically fall between 850 and 3,100 square feet in size and can date back as far as the early 1940s with some new construction as recent as 2023.

Carney Island Park is close by
The nearby Carney Island Park is a spacious park that hugs Lake Weir, the fifth largest lake in the state, and has boat ramps that give residents the chance to get out on the water and do some fishing. The park is also home to the Ma Barker House which was built in 1935 and now offers private tours. For a time, the house was rented by notorious gangsters Ma Barker and her son, who would later engage in the longest FBI shootout in history when police discovered their hideout. Eagle Ridge Golf Club was founded in 1999 and boasts four different courses with 36 holes between them that welcome both members and visiting golfers. Stonecrest Golf is another semi-private course that was designed by Steve Newgent. The par 72 course is in the middle of a retirement community and offers plenty of water hazards and championship tees. “Golf is sort of a big deal around here,” Kiger says. “I bet there are people who move here for the golf.”

Highways to Ocala, Disney and beyond
Residents have easy access to Highway 441 which can take them into Ocala just 15 miles northeast. “There’s lots to do in Ocala and plenty more around here.
