About This Home
Own Your Piece of Anastasia Island - Enjoy It When You Want, Rent It When You Don't Imagine having your own beach retreat just a short 5 minute walk from the beautiful beaches of Anastasia Island, while also having the opportunity to generate rental income when you're not using it. Sunshine Beach Cottage offers that combination in a comfortable, fully furnished, turnkey 3-bedroom, 2-bath home near Butler Beach. Offering approximately 1,392 square feet, the home comfortably sleeps up to 9 with a king bed, two queen beds, a twin bed, and a queen-size sleeper sofa in the living room. The single-story floor plan features an updated kitchen, comfortable living and dining areas, one-car garage, and a covered screened lanai overlooking a private, fenced backyard. For second-home buyers, this is a property you can begin enjoying from day one. Spend your mornings at the beach, afternoons boating or exploring St. Augustine, and evenings relaxing on the screened porch surrounded by mature tropical landscaping. The property offers convenient access to both the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway, with restaurants, shopping, Anastasia State Park, the St. Augustine Amphitheatre, and historic downtown St. Augustine just minutes away. For buyers interested in combining personal use with investment potential, the home has an established vacation-rental history. This provides an attractive opportunity for a second-home owner to enjoy the property personally while potentially generating supplemental income during periods when the home would otherwise sit unused. Investors will appreciate that the property is already configured for vacation use and is being offered fully furnished, potentially eliminating much of the expense and effort associated with furnishing and preparing a new vacation rental. Outdoor living is another highlight. The covered and screened lanai provides a comfortable place to enjoy morning coffee or evening breezes, while the fenced yard features mature tropical gardens and fruit-bearing plants including pineapple, lemon, fig, and pomegranate. A pergola-covered area provides additional space for kayaks, paddleboards, bicycles, or other beach equipment, and a separate storage shed offers convenient additional storage. Whether you're searching for a Florida second home, personal beach getaway, established vacation rental, or a property that can potentially help offset the cost of ownership when you're away, Sunshine Beach Cottage offers exceptional flexibility in one of St. Augustine's most desirable coastal locations. Come enjoy the island lifestyle-and let your beach house work for you when you're not here.
