About This Home
As of October 2025Welcome to your dream beach cottage, tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street and just a short four-block stroll to St. Augustine Beach. Full of character, comfort, and possibility, this light, bright, and airy 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of laid-back beach living and everyday convenience—all without the constraints of an HOA. With 1,025 square feet of interior living space and an additional 176 square feet of covered, screened-in side patio, this home lives larger than its footprint. From the moment you arrive, you will feel the charm of this coastal retreat. A quaint front deck welcomes you in, setting the tone for a relaxed lifestyle. Step inside to an inviting, open layout filled with natural light and beach vibes. The spacious living and dining areas flow easily together, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The kitchen is both functional and filled with potential—a perfect canvas for the next owner's personal touch. The primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with a sliding glass door to the screened-in patio and a spacious walk-in closet. The second bedroom also features an oversized closet, while the third is ideal for guests, an office, or creative space. The fully fenced backyard, shaded by mature trees, feels like your own private sanctuary, complete with a small deck for outdoor living. Key updates include a metal roof (2014), whole-home PEX plumbing (2021), and a well-maintained HVAC system (2018). The 1-car garage adds valuable storage and parking convenience. What truly sets this home apart is its location—just a short walk to St. Augustine Beach’s iconic Golden Mile, known for its beach bars, restaurants, boutique shops, and coffee houses. Enjoy morning surf sessions, sunset strolls, and taco runs by bike—no car needed. Lovingly maintained and full of character, this cozy beach cottage is move-in ready with potential to make it your own. Perfect as a full-time home, vacation getaway, or investment opportunity! 30 day minimum rental period.
