103 5th St Saint Augustine, FL 32084

Downtown St Augustine's most unique Historic Hideaway Home! Full time or just your private get-away! A quality & luxury retreat! Tucked in the Colonial area of town with the U.S. National Cemetery to the west & Matanzas Bay to the east. Historical notes refer to this as "one of St. Augustine's pleasant and distinctive neighborhoods". In addition to the Llambias House and St. Francis Barracks there are Bungalow, Mediterranean Revival and Victorian homes in this area. This area from St. Francis Street to San Salvador Street forms the southern section within the National Landmark District. A rich architectural & development heritage exists built during wartimes and with contribution from architect Fred A. Henderich, whose family helped to develop the neighborhood. All of this and more history! This home is a beautiful example of custom rebuilding supervised by the current owner making it a most loving restoration. Modern and up to date! After enjoying panoramic water views over Matanzas Bay from up and downstairs or ground level deck retire into a decor featuring beamed ceilings, beautiful and unusual 'Palm wood' flooring and a custom kitchen with historic class & style. And for the times with cool weather, you may enjoy the warmth of the living room hearth. Separate up and downstairs master suites each with its own private bath and walk-in closest. A den may serve as a small 3rd bedroom downstairs, plus a great indoor workshop. That plus the oversize (24'8x12'8) interior dimension garage for one large or perhaps two small vehicles. And then just enjoy a stroll to the historic downtown plaza! And much more awaits you.....
