Our home, Temporary Sanity, could be your home away from home and you won't want to leave! This very recently renovated gorgeous home is only an 6-7-minute drive to Siesta Key's Crescent beach access #12. If you prefer, rent some bikes during your stay and get some exercise; it’s only a 12-minute ride (2.1 mi). Please book whole months only. No mid-month to mid-month so we don't have gaps in between rentals.

There is a lot of space—it sleeps 10—has a huge lanai, a heated saltwater pool, and an outside dining table for 12, all in popular Gulf Gate neighborhood, with walking distance to all stores! Three bedrooms, two baths with a den and a large 2+ car garage for your use.

The gourmet, fully equipped kitchen boasts a 10’x4’ granite island with easy access pull out soft close drawers. There is a stainless French door style refrigerator with front door water/ice access, a refrigerated pull-out drawer for quick access, and a bottom drawer freezer. A stainless hood sits over the black glass stove top and oven, stainless microwave, Bosch dishwasher, and a stainless sink completes this modern kitchen. The kitchen has an access door to the garage for easy unloading of groceries or when you return from the beach. In the garage are a full-size Samsung washer and a dryer with additional storage and free-to-use beach accessories; floats, cooler, umbrella and high-end beach chairs.

French doors off the dining area, which has a 10 person solid Indian Rosewood dining room table, lead out to your large covered lanai with elegant tongue and groove ceiling, large new dining table with seating for 12, a wall-mounted 50” flat screen TV with cable, a propane BBQ grill, and 6 large pool-side loungers all of which are enclosed in a screened (bug-free) cage with a heated, lighted, saltwater, pebble-tec pool that has a bench for sitting.

Off the living area is sunroom with a queen sofa sleeper with great pool view and access to the lanai and pool area. The Living Room is spacious and has a blue leather queen sofa sleeper as well with a 60" large flat screen TV, Xfinity cable and WiFi for entertainment. Off to the side is a desk for your laptop or make-up.

The master suite has a beautiful King bed, master bath, two large closets with organizers, dresser, remote ceiling fan with French doors leading outside to a serene and private sitting area with a four-piece patio set, as well as access to the pool.

The second bedroom has a beautiful queen bed, 2 nightstands, remote fan, large dresser with ample natural light and lovely dark wood tile floors.

The third bedroom has twin beds, a huge closet, remote ceiling fan and 2 nightstands. The two, extra-long twin beds can be converted with a kit to make one full-size King bed with a $50 fee plus taxes. Let us know and we will do this for you.
