Remarks: ** Annual Designer- Furnished One of a Kind Beautiful Home for Rent!** Available starting May 15, 2026. Tucked behind the gates of Sonoma and set on what is widely considered one of the most exceptional homesites in the community, this fully furnished annual rental offers a level of privacy, beauty, and tranquility that is rarely found. Backing to an expansive lake and the protected 55 acres Conservatory Park preserve, this residence lives like a private single family home, surrounded by nature, water, and peaceful quiet that feels worlds away from everything… yet right in the heart of Sarasota. From the moment you walk in, the home opens to light-filled living spaces designed to capture the view. Walls of glass draw your eye outward to the water and preserve, where eagles, osprey, hawks, turtles, and birds create a constantly changing natural backdrop. The extended travertine lanai and clear view screening create the perfect setting to relax, entertain, or simply take in the stillness and beauty that makes this property so special. The interior has been thoughtfully and extensively updated throughout. The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, custom cream glazed cabinetry with soft close drawers, stone backsplash, under cabinet lighting, and a full stainless appliance package. The open concept design flows effortlessly into the main living area, while French doors lead to a private den or flex space ideal for a home office, reading room, or fitness area. Upstairs, scraped pecan wood flooring leads to three bedrooms, a spacious loft workspace, and a convenient second floor laundry room with large capacity washer and dryer. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with its own private screened balcony overlooking the water and preserve. The ensuite bath offers a spa-like experience with dual vanities, a beautifully tiled walk-in shower with frameless glass, and a soaking garden tub. Every detail has been carefully considered, from crown molding and custom paint finishes to designer window treatments throughout. Hurricane rated windows and sliders, along with accordion shutters, provide ease and peace of mind for those who travel or want a lock and leave lifestyle. Offered fully furnished and available for an annual lease, this home is move-in ready and presents in pristine condition. It stands apart from typical rental offerings in both quality and setting, delivering a level of comfort and refinement that is rarely found in the rental market. Residents of Sonoma enjoy a gated environment with access to a community pool, playgrounds, and sport courts, along with direct access to the shaded walking trails of Conservatory Park. The location is simply unbeatable, just minutes to University Town Center, dining, shopping, the new Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium, downtown Sarasota, SRQ Airport, and the beaches including Lido. This is not your typical rental. It is for someone who truly values privacy, views, quality, and a peaceful connection to nature. A rare opportunity to live in one of the most special settings in Sarasota. Call today for a private showing and get ready to fall in love with this incredible place to call home.
