Living in Florida's Space Coast
Sonoma
Sonoma is a built-out Viera neighborhood in Rockledge 32955, on Chardonnay, Merlot, Mondavi and Pinot. Homes went up between 2003 and 2005 and run roughly 1,813 to 3,500 square feet. Ten have closed in the last eighteen months, and more than half of them sat behind a gate.
Sonoma At Viera, Florida
Sonoma is a resale neighborhood, not a new one. The homes here were built between 2003 and 2005 and there has been no new construction in the last eighteen months. If you have read somewhere that Sonoma is a current builder community, that is out of date by two decades.
The homes run roughly 1,813 to 3,500 square feet with three to five bedrooms and two to four baths, on the Rockledge side of the Viera master plan. The streets are named for wine country, Chardonnay, Merlot, Mondavi, Sonoma Way and Pinot, which is where the name comes from and about as far as the theme goes.
On architecture, be careful what you read. Several sites describe Sonoma as contemporary or mid-century modern. The comparable sales do not support that. What actually trades here is Ranch and Traditional, the same as most Viera neighborhoods of that vintage. If genuinely modern architecture is what you are after in Viera, Modern Duran and Crossmolina are where it exists.
Six of the last ten sales were in a gated section, so gating varies by phase. Sonoma and Sonoma South were platted separately, and which side of that line a home falls on affects both the gate question and the assessment. We confirm both for the specific address.

Sonoma Details
Established, Not New
Built 2003 to 2005. You are buying a twenty year old house, so roof age, water heater and the electrical panel drive the inspection.
Which Phase
Sonoma and Sonoma South were platted separately. The phase decides the gate question and the assessment, and listings rarely spell it out.
The Gate Question
Six of ten recent sales were gated, four were not. Ask before you assume either way.
Wide Size Spread
1,813 at the bottom and 3,500 at the top is a big range for one neighborhood, so per square foot comparisons across Sonoma will mislead you.
Dues Are Semi-Annual
Easy to misread when you are comparing against a monthly HOA elsewhere.
Viera Location
Inside the Viera master plan with The Avenue, the hospital campus and the I-95 interchange all a short drive.
Sonoma Price Range
These are the figures the public property records carry for homes in Sonoma, not current asking prices, and a single address can sit outside the band for reasons a number will not show you. Call or text (321) 212-7676 and we will price the exact home you are looking at.

Sonoma Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sonoma at Viera a modern or mid-century modern neighborhood?
No. Several websites describe it that way and that is wrong. The recorded architectural styles are Ranch and Traditional. For genuinely modern architecture in Viera, look at Modern Duran or Crossmolina.
When was Sonoma built?
Between 2003 and 2005. It is a resale neighborhood with no new construction activity.
How big are the homes in Sonoma?
Roughly 1,813 to 3,500 square feet, with three to five bedrooms and two to four baths.
Is Sonoma gated?
Partly. Some sections are gated and four were not, so it depends which phase the home sits in. We confirm it for the specific address.
What are the HOA dues in Sonoma?
Dues and what they cover vary by community and change over time, so I get the current figure, the budget and the reserve study straight from the association before you go under contract.
Is Sonoma in Rockledge or Viera?
Both, in the sense that matters. Addresses are Rockledge 32955 and the community sits inside the Viera master plan. Viera is unincorporated, so this pairing is normal.
What is the difference between Sonoma and Sonoma South?
They were platted as separate phases. Age, gating and the assessment can differ between them, so two similarly priced homes are not always comparable.
Should I buy new construction instead?
If new is what you want, Sonoma is not the neighborhood. It finished building twenty years ago. We can show you what is actually selling new in Viera right now.
The Rockledge Side Of Viera
Sonoma sits on Chardonnay, Merlot, Mondavi, Sonoma Way and Pinot on the Rockledge side of the Viera master plan, north of the main Viera Boulevard corridor.
The Avenue Viera, the Viera hospital campus and the I-95 interchange are a short drive. Cocoa and the Cocoa Beach causeway are north, Melbourne is south, and the barrier island beaches are roughly half an hour east.
