About This Home

Welcome to the Mermaid, located a three-minute walk from Crescent/Butler Beach. This beautiful open-concept beach cottage has three bedrooms and two full baths, including a separate guest suite with bath. Enjoy the sound of the ocean from the covered front porch or rooftop deck, while the generous backyard and patio offer ample outdoor living space. The owners have meticulously maintained and improved this home. Fully turnkey and sold furnished, it features a newer roof, A/C, updated kitchen and baths, and excellent storm resilience thanks to its elevated setting. A one-car garage provides ample storage, and the oversized lot offers abundant onsite parking. Ideally suited as a year-round beach getaway with a strong rental history, the home would also serve as a comfortable primary residence. Purchase the property next door (4969 Medoras Avenue) and create a family compound! This home is located in the county not in the city of St Augustine Beach. Very close to the beach access. Plenty of room to add a guest home on the back, plenty of possibilities.
