Virtually Staged. The Nest | A Tropical Hideaway in Sarasota's Desirable West-of-Trail Neighborhood

Welcome to The Nest—where tropical charm, peaceful surroundings, and everyday convenience come together in a truly unique Sarasota home.

Tucked away on a quiet, no-outlet street west of US-41, this 4-bedroom, 3-full-bathroom, pet-friendly, unfurnished annual rental offers something increasingly difficult to find: privacy, character, flexible living space, and room for your boat or RV—all just 4 miles from Downtown Sarasota.

The heart of The Nest is its enchanting backyard oasis. Step outside into a lush tropical retreat featuring orchids nestled in the trees, mature palms, winding garden paths, and a tranquil pond with a cascading waterfall. Soft string lighting creates a magical atmosphere for evening relaxation or entertaining. The fully fenced backyard backs toward the FSU campus and historic Powell-Crosley Estate, providing a peaceful setting without residential neighbors directly behind the property.

Inside, you'll find warm, inviting living spaces, four bedrooms, and three full bathrooms offering flexibility for a variety of living arrangements. The kitchen features an electric range, newer refrigerator, and brand-new dishwasher, with a washer and dryer included for added convenience.

Bring your pets, boat, or RV! Located in a non-deed-restricted neighborhood, The Nest offers an exceptionally long shell driveway along the side of the home for additional parking, plus a convenient circular driveway in front.

Enjoy the best of Sarasota at your doorstep. Just minutes from The Ringling Museum, Asolo Theatre, Ringling College of Art and Design, New College of Florida, USF Sarasota-Manatee, and Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. Convenient to EVO Gymnastics, Nathan Benderson Park, Downtown Sarasota, St. Armands Circle, and the beautiful Gulf beaches.
The Nest isn't just another rental home. It's your own private slice of tropical Sarasota, with the space, freedom, and location to make yourself at home. Earlier move-in may be possible.
