                       CONSOLIDATED-TOMOKA LAND CO.
                            PROXY STATEMENT

                             INTRODUCTION
      This proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy are being
sent to the shareholders of Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co., a Florida
corporation (the "Company"), on or about March 25, 2005, in connection
with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of the Company of
proxies to be used at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held on
Wednesday, April 27, 2005 (and at any adjournment or adjournments
thereof), for the purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of
annual meeting.  Shareholders who execute proxies retain the right to
revoke them at any time before they are exercised by sending written
notice to the secretary of the Company, by submitting a properly
executed, later-dated proxy, or by attending the annual meeting and
electing to vote in person.

      The cost of preparing, assembling, and mailing material in
connection with this solicitation will be borne by the Company.

      At the close of business on March 1, 2005, there were 5,653,595
shares of common stock, $1 par value, of the Company outstanding. 
Each holder of common stock of record on that date is entitled to one
vote for each share held by such shareholder on every matter submitted
to the meeting.  The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do
not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors, which
is permitted but not required by Florida law.

      See "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
Management" below for information as to the beneficial ownership of
common stock of the Company as of March 1, 2005, by each director of
the Company and by all directors and executive officers as a group.

                         ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

      The Company's Articles of Incorporation divide the Board of
Directors into three classes, as nearly equal as possible.  At the
2005 annual meeting of shareholders, three Class II directors are to
be elected, each to hold office until the annual meeting of
shareholders to be held in 2008, respectively, or until their
successors are elected and qualified.  

      It is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying
form of proxy to vote such proxy for the election as directors of the
persons named below who have been recommended to the Board of
Directors by the Corporate Governance Committee as nominees for Class
II unless authority to do so is withheld.

      All nominees for election as directors are now directors.   Each
nominee has indicated his willingness to serve if elected.  If any
nominee should be unable to serve, which is not now anticipated, the 
proxy will be voted for such other persons as shall be determined by
the persons named in the proxy in accordance with their judgment.

      The election of Messrs. Hodnett, Lloyd, and McMunn will require
the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares
present or represented at the meeting.  The Board of Directors of the
Company recommends a vote "for" the election of Messrs. Hodnett,
Lloyd, and McMunn as directors in Class II.  Proxies solicited by the
Board will be so voted unless shareholders specify in their proxies a
contrary choice.  Abstentions will be treated as shares represented
at the meeting, but not voting, so they will have no effect on the
outcome of the voting to elect directors.  Broker non-votes will not
be considered as shares represented at the meeting.

                           4  


Audit Committee
---------------
The Audit Committee, which held four meetings in 2004, provides
assistance to the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight
responsibilities with respect to the integrity of the Company's
financial statements, the Company's compliance with legal and
regulatory requirements, the qualifications, independence and
performance of the Company's independent auditor, the Company's
systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting
established by management and the Board, and the Company's auditing,
accounting and financial reporting processes generally.  KPMG LLP, the
Company's independent auditors, reports directly to the Audit
Committee.

The Audit Committee acts under a written charter adopted by the Board
of Directors.  

All members of the Audit Committee are independent under the listing
standards of the American Stock Exchange and Rule 10A-3 promulgated
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

All Audit Committee members possess the level of financial literacy
required by the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

Mr. DeGood, as chairman of the Audit Committee, meets the current
standard of requisite financial management expertise as required by
the American Stock Exchange and is an "audit committee financial
expert" as defined by the rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. 

The Audit Committee has adopted Policies and Procedures for Complaints
and Concerns Regarding Accounting, Internal Accounting Controls, and
Auditing Matters to enable confidential and anonymous reporting to the
Audit Committee.

Compensation and Stock Option Committee
---------------------------------------
The Compensation and Stock Option Committee, which held one meeting in
2004, assists the Board of Directors in discharging its
responsibilities relating to the compensation of the Company's chief
executive officer and other officers, makes compensation
recommendations to management and the Board of Directors, and
administers the 2001 Stock Option Plan. 

All members of the Executive Compensation Committee are independent
under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

Corporate Governance Committee
------------------------------
The Corporate Governance Committee, which held two meetings during
2004, was formed to perform the functions of a nominating committee
and recommends to the Board individuals qualified to become members of
the Board based on criteria approved by the Committee and nominees for
the Board for annual meetings of the shareholders. The Committee also
recommends to the Board the corporate governance guidelines
appropriate to the Company. 

All members of the Corporate Governance Committee are independent
under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

The Corporate Governance Committee operates under a formal charter
that governs its duties and standards of performance.  A copy of the
charter was included as an appendix to the Company's proxy statement
dated April 28, 2004.

                           5  



Consideration of Director Nominees
----------------------------------
The policy of the Corporate Governance Committee is to consider
nominations from shareholders for candidates for membership on the
Board of Directors.  To recommend a candidate to the Committee,
shareholders should submit the nominee's name and qualifications for
Board membership in writing to the Company's Secretary at Post Office
Box 10809, Daytona Beach, Florida 32120-0809.

The Corporate Governance Committee has established specific, minimum
qualifications that must be met by a Committee-recommended nominee. 
Under these criteria, a majority of the board should be independent
under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.  In
addition, a nominee should demonstrate high ethical standards and
integrity in his or her personal and professional dealings and be
willing to act on and remain accountable for boardroom decisions;
should have the ability to provide wise, thoughtful counsel on a broad
range of issues; should possess high intelligence and wisdom and apply
it in decision making; should be financially literate; should value
board and team performance over individual performance; should be open
to other opinions and willing to listen; should approach others
assertively, responsibly and supportively and raise tough questions in
a manner that encourages open discussion; should have a history of
achievements that reflect high standards for themselves and others;
should be committed to seeking exceptional performance of the Company,
both in absolute terms and relative to its peers; and should have the
ability to commit sufficient time and attention to the activities of
the Company.

The Corporate Governance Committee assesses the size and membership of
the Board and determines whether any vacancies are to be expected.  In
the event of any vacancies, the Committee considers potential
candidates for director, which may come to the Committee's attention
through current Board members, shareholders, professional search firms
or other persons.  In addition to the specific, minimum qualifications
described above, the Committee seeks to ensure that the Board as a
whole will possess the following specific qualities or skills:
expertise in management or oversight of financial accounting and
control; a record of making sound business decisions; cognizance of
current general management trends and "best practices;" relevant
knowledge specific to the industries in which the Company operates;
ability and willingness to motivate and require high-performance by
management; and capability of questioning, approving, and monitoring
the Company's strategic plans, providing insight and directional
focus.  The Committee meets to review and report to the Board on
possible candidates for membership and annually recommends a slate of
nominees to the Board with respect to nominations for the Board at the
annual meeting of shareholders.

The nomination of Mr. Hodnett was recommended by Bob D. Allen,
Chairman of the Board of the Company.

          REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION AND STOCK OPTION COMMITTEE
                    ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

      The Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of
Directors consists solely of independent, outside directors.  The
Committee met once during 2004.  The Committee reviews and recommends
salary adjustments for officers and key personnel with salaries in
excess of $75,000, administers the Company's 2001 Stock Option Plan,
and makes recommendations to the Board with respect to the Company's
Compensation Program for the executive officers named in the following
Summary Compensation Table.  The three individuals named in the
Summary Compensation Table are the only persons earning more than
$100,000 in annual compensation who fall within the Securities and
Exchange Commission definition of executive officers.

      The annual compensation program includes base pay plus an
incentive program to reward key management employees who are in a
position to make substantial contributions to the success or the
growth of the Company and its subsidiaries.  The Company seeks to
provide through this program compensation opportunities that are
competitive and directly related to Company performance.  All
participants in the incentive plan were approved by the Compensation
Committee.  There were nine participants in the plan during 2004.

      The executive officers are evaluated on performance, corporate
and individual, based on a pay-for-performance system.  Corporate
performance is based on the Company's growth in earnings per share and
progress on projects and activities which will have a major effect
on future earnings.  Individual performance includes implementation of
goals and objectives, strategic planning, civic involvement, and
public affairs.  Base pay is designed to provide competitive rewards
for the normal duties associated with the individual's job
description.  The incentive pay component is designed to stimulate
actions that contribute to improved operating and financial results. 

      The Summary Compensation Table shows the incentive awards (under
"Bonus" in the Table) to the named executive officers for the past
three years.  For 2004, the goals for all executive officers included
an overall operating and financial performance target measured by net
income plus additional quantitative indicators.  In addition to the
2004 quantified objectives, the Committee evaluated performance
against predetermined qualitative objectives in determining the amount
of incentive awards.  Qualified objectives are incorporated in an
annual operating plan approved by the Board of Directors.  The annual
real estate sales goal is the most significant operating item and has
the greatest effect on earnings per share.  Qualitative objectives
include action which maximize real estate sales prices and sales
absorption rates, maximize returns from income properties, enhance
relations with local government staff to achieve favorable
entitlements, improve productivity and control expenses, and involve
participation in community activities.

      The Summary Compensation Table shows the Options/SAR (Stock
Appreciation Right) Grants to the named executive officers for the
past three years.  The exercise price of the options granted was equal
to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the
grant.  Therefore, the value of these grants to the officers is
dependent solely upon the future growth in share value of the
Company's common stock.  The stock appreciation right entitles the
optionee to receive a supplemental payment, which at the election of
the Committee may be paid in whole or in part in cash or in shares of
common stock equal to a portion of the spread between the exercise
price and the fair market value of the underlying shares at the time
of exercise.

                           10 


      The Company's CEO, Mr. McMunn, received a 4% increase in base
pay, which the committee determined was appropriate to maintain a
competitive salary structure. Mr. McMunn also received a bonus of
$176,000 for 2004 based on his performance as it relates to
improvements in the Company's earnings per share and net income, as
well as the continuing growth of the Company's business. Commercial
real estate land sales increased by 26% over the 2003 results. 
Earnings per share increased by 11% and earnings before depreciation,
amortization and deferred taxes increased 9% for the year. 

      The Committee believes that the components of salary, Stock
Options/SARs, and incentive awards are fair, competitive, and in the
best interest of the Company.  Specific salary and incentives are
disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table and the Options/SAR Grants
in Last Fiscal Year Table.

By the Compensation Committee:  John C. Adams, Jr., Chairman; Robert
F. Lloyd and David D. Peterson.

(1)    Fiscal year ends December 31.
(2)    In this column, the aggregate amount of perquisites and other
personal benefits did not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 10% of 
the executive's salary and bonus, and the executive had no other
compensation reportable under this category.  The Company provides
its executive officers, including the named officers, with a
variety of perquisites, including use of a Company automobile, 
including gasoline and car maintenance, except Robert F. Apgar,
who elected to take a salary adjustment in lieu of a Company automobile. 
The Company also provides club membership to LPGA International and
Company paid medical and dental insurance, and long-term disability. 
The value of these perks does not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 10%
of the total of annual salary and bonus for any named executive
officer, as shown in the Summary Compensation Table.  The perquisites
available to our executive officers are generally made available to
all of our officers at or above the level of vice president, with the
exception of Company automobiles.  We believe these perks are an
important component of compensation and are necessary to compete for
top management talent.

(3)    Premium for term life insurance.

William H. McMunn        20,000           34.5%     31.64      01/28/14      $397,965    $1,008,520
Bruce W. Teeters          8,000           13.8%     31.64      01/28/14      $159,186    $  403,408

(1)   Each of these options was granted pursuant to the 2001 Stock
Option Plan and is subject to the terms of such plan.  These options
are exercisable to no more than one-fifth of the total number of
shares covered by the option during each twelve month period
commencing twelve months after the date of grant on January 22, 2004. 
In addition, each of these option grants included a tandem SAR,
exercisable only to the extent that the related option is exercisable. 
Upon the exercise of a tandem SAR, the holder is entitled to
receive the value of the SAR, calculated by subtracting the excess of
the fair market value of the common stock over the exercise price of
the related option from the quotient obtained by dividing such amount
by one minus the holders' personal income tax rate.  The tandem SAR is
payable upon exercise in cash or common stock, at the discretion of
the stock option committee.  The tandem SAR can be exercised only
until the later of the end of (a) the 90-day period following the
exercise of the related option or (b) the 10-day period beginning on
the 3rd business day after the date on which the Company releases its
official financial data for the quarter in which the related option
was exercised. 

(2) 	Potential gains are calculated net of the exercise price but
before taxes associated with the exercise.  These amounts represent
hypothetical gains that could be achieved for the options if they were
exercised at the end of the option term.  The assumed 5% and 10%
rates of stock appreciation are based on appreciation from the
exercise price per share. These rates are provided in accordance with
the rules of the SEC and do not represent the Company's estimate or
projection of the Company's future common stock price.  Actual gains,
if any, on stock option exercises are dependent on the Company's
future financial performance, overall stock market conditions and the
option holders' continued employment through the vesting period. 
These amounts do not include the value of the options' tandem
SARs because the value of such SARs will not be determinable until the
time of exercise.

      until the time of exercise.  The value of unexercised in-the-
      money options represents the aggregate amount of the excess of
      $43.00, the closing price of the Company's Common Stock on
      December 31, 2004, over the exercise price of all options held
      on such a date.

                    DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS

     Under the Company's Unfunded Deferred Compensation Plan,
effective July 1, 1981, fees earned by directors for service on the
Board and its committees may be deferred until the director attains
seventy years of age or ceases to be a member of the Board, whichever
occurs first.  Under a similar plan effective October 25, 1982,
officers and key employees of the Company may elect to defer all or a
portion of their earnings until such time as the participant ceases
to be an officer or key employee.  All sums credited to a
participating director, officer, or employee under either of these
plans may be distributed in a lump sum or in installments over not
more than ten calendar years following the end of the deferral
period.  The participant will be entitled to elect the size of the
installments and the period over which they will be distributed.  The
deferred compensation accrues interest annually at the average rate
of return earned by the Company on its short-term investments. 
Compensation deferred pursuant to these plans during 2004 by
officers named in the compensation table above is included in the
table.

                           PENSION PLAN

     The Company maintains a defined benefit plan for all employees
who have attained the age of 21 and completed one year of service. 
Pension benefits are based primarily on years of service and the
average compensation for the five highest years during the final ten
years of employment.  The benefit formula generally provides for a
life annuity benefit.  The amount of the Company's contributions or
accrual on behalf of any particular participant in the pension plan
cannot readily be determined.  The following table shows the
estimated annual benefit payable under the pension plan (utilizing
present levels of Social Security benefits) upon retirement to
persons in a range-of-salary and years-of-service classification:

                     REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling its
oversight responsibilities with respect to the integrity of the
Company's financial statements, the Company's compliance with legal
and regulatory requirements, the qualifications, independence and
performance of the Company's independent auditors, the Company's
systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting
established by management and the Board, and the Company's auditing,
accounting and financial reporting processes generally.

Among other things, the Audit Committee contracts with the independent
auditors to audit the financial statements of the Company; inquires as
to the independence of the auditors, and obtains at least annually the
auditors' written statement describing their independent status; meets
with the independent auditors, with and without management present, to
discuss their examination, their evaluation of the Company's internal
controls, and the overall quality of the Company's financial
reporting; and investigates any matter brought to its attention within
the scope of its duties, with the power to retain outside counsel for
this purpose, as deemed necessary by the Audit Committee.

In connection with the preparation and filing of the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004:

     (1)  The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited
financial statements with management;

     (2)  The Audit Committee discussed with the independent auditors
the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing
Standards 61;

     (3)  The Audit Committee reviewed the written disclosures and the
letter from the independent auditors required by the Independence
Standards Board Standard No. 1 and discussed with the auditors any
relationships that may impact their objectivity and independence and
satisfied itself as to the auditors' independence;

     (4)  The Audit Committee reviewed management's assertion about
its assessment of the Company's internal controls over financial
reporting and the effectiveness of those controls;

     (5)  The Audit Committee reviewed the independent auditors
attestation report regarding management's assessment process over the
Company's internal controls over financial reporting and the
independent auditor's assessment of the effectiveness of those
controls; and

     (6)  The Audit Committee reviewed all deficiencies in internal
control over financial reporting presented by management and
significant deficiencies reported by management and the independent
auditors.






                           17


      Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit
Committee recommended to the Board of Directors of the Company that
the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
    
      By the Audit Committee: Gerald L. DeGood, Chairman; John C. Adams,
Jr.; and William J. Voges


             INFORMATION CONCERNING INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

     The Company has selected the firm of KPMG LLP to serve as the

of KPMG LLP are expected to be present at the annual meeting of
shareholders, and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they
desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to questions.

               All other Fees                                   -0-       -0-           

1)   Aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG
LLP for the audit of the Company's annual financial statements, by 
year, review of interim financial statements included in the Company's
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other services normally provided in
connection with the Company's statutory and regulatory filings or
engagements. 

(2)   Aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG
LLP for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning, including
preparation of tax forms, including federal and state income tax
returns, and income tax consulting services.

All fees were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Pre-approval Policy
 
     In 2003, the Audit Committee adopted a Pre-approval Policy
("Policy") governing the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit
services performed by the independent auditor in order to ensure that
the performance of such services does not impair the auditor's
independence.




                           18  

      According to the Policy, the Audit Committee will annually
review and pre-approve the audit services and fees that may be
provided by the independent auditor during the following year and may
from time-to-time review and pre-approve audit-related services, tax
services and all other services to be provided by the independent
auditor. The term of any pre-approval is 12 months from the date of
pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a
different period.  For pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider
whether the service is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor
independence, as well as whether the independent auditor is in the
best position to provide the service for reasons such as its
familiarity with the Company's business, people, culture, accounting
system, risk profile and other factors.  All such factors will be
considered as a whole, with no single factor being determinative.
   
      The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one
or more of its members.  The member or members to whom such authority
is delegated will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit
Committee at its next scheduled meeting.  The Committee does not
delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the
independent auditor to management.

      Pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for all services to
be provided by the independent auditor will be established
periodically by the Audit Committee.  Any proposed services exceeding
these levels will require separate pre-approval by the Audit
Committee.  

      Requests or applications to provide services that require pre-
approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit
Committee by both the independent auditor and the Chief Financial
Officer and must include (1) a joint statement as to whether, in their
view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC's rules on
auditor independence, and (2) with respect to each proposed pre-
approved service, detailed back-up documentation regarding the
specific service to be provided.  Requests or applications for
services to be provided by the independent auditor that do not require
separate approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the
Treasurer and will include a description of the services to be
rendered.  The Treasurer will determine whether such services are
included within the list of services that have previously received the
pre-approval of the Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee will be
informed on a timely basis of any such services rendered by the
independent auditor. 

       SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

       Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires
directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more
than 10% of the Company's common stock to file with the SEC and
American Stock Exchange initial reports of beneficial ownership and
reports of changes in beneficial ownership of the Company's common
stock.  Directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of more
than 10% of the Company's common stock are required by SEC rules to
furnish the Company with copies of all such reports.  To the Company's



                           19

knowledge, based solely upon a review of the copies of such reports
furnished to the Company and written representations from directors
and executive officers that no other reports were required, the
Company believes that Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to
all directors and executive officers were reported timely during the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.  On February 14, 2005 a Form 4 was
filed for Robert F. Lloyd, who purchased 670 shares on February 10,
2005.

                        SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

     Shareholders are hereby notified that if they wish a proposal to
be included in the Company's proxy statement and form of proxy
relating to the 2005 annual meeting, a written copy of their proposal
must be received at the principal executive offices of the Company no
later than November 11, 2005.  Proposals submitted outside the
provisions of Rule 14a-8 will be considered untimely if submitted
after January 27, 2006.  To ensure prompt receipt by the Company,
proposals should be sent certified mail, return receipt requested. 
Proposals must comply with the proxy rules relating to shareholder
proposals in order to be included in the Company's proxy materials.


                           ANNUAL REPORT

      The Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2004, accompanies this proxy statement.  Additional
copies may be obtained by writing to the Company at Post Office Box
10809, Daytona Beach, Florida 32120-0809.

                           OTHER MATTERS

      The Board of Directors of the Company does not intend to bring
any other matters before the meeting, and it does not know of any
proposals to be presented to the meeting by others. If any other
matters properly come before the meeting, however, the persons named
in the accompanying proxy will vote thereon in accordance with their
best judgment.
