About This Home

As of December 2024

Open House Saturday 10/19/24 from 11am to 1pm! Meticulously renovated dream home in the heart of historic St. Augustine, with a detached cottage guest suite! Back on the market at no fault of the seller, this once in a lifetime opportunity is back! Nestled in the center of the nation's oldest city, this property has two houses on one lot and has seen a complete makeover from top to bottom that brings modern luxury, while still leaving its historic charm that will simply leave you speechless. As soon as you pull into the paved driveway, you'll start to fall in love with the great curb appeal, and the location of the home realizing that you are less than a 5 minute walk away from the center of downtown St. Augustine. Once you walk into the Victorian style main house, you'll immediately notice how the refinished hardwood floors are complemented by an abundance of natural light coming into the home, also showcasing the home's open floor plan. Once inside, you'll gravitate towards the kitchen that is the definition of timeless luxury. With a large centered island, gorgeous granite countertops, white shaker cabinets, and stainless steel appliances all opening up into both the living room and the front porch; what more could you ask for? As you continue through the living room, you'll reach the first bedroom and bathroom. The brand new bathroom features beautiful tile floors, a dual vanity, and a walk in sliding door shower. If you aren't sold yet, just wait until you walk upstairs. When you make your way to the primary suite, your jaw will drop. The grand bedroom opens into a huge primary bathroom that is truly remarkable. With an oversized walk-in shower that has beautiful emerald green tile, a separate garden tub, a dual vanity, and plenty of natural light flooding through, this brings pure relaxation. With the upstairs featuring 2 more bedrooms, another HGTV style bathroom, and an enclosed balcony, what more could you ask for? What really makes this property is the outdoor living area. With the entire backyard paved, it makes enjoying time at the firepit and covered bar comfortable and the perfect place to throw outdoor parties, summer barbecues, and get togethers with friends and family. On top of the beautiful estate, the charming guest cottage is the cherry on top. Currently acting as a five star guest favorite air bnb, the unit is always booked and fully equipped with a bedroom, bathroom, full kitchen, and multiple living areas. With being located in historic downtown, 56 Carrera St. is just steps away from St. George Street's charming shops and eateries, the stunning Castillo de San Marcos, and scenic waterfront views along Matanzas Bay. Enjoy the vibrant arts scene at the Lightner Museum, explore the historic Flagler College, and unwind at nearby Plaza de la Constitución. The area is perfect for history buffs, food enthusiasts, and those who appreciate beautiful architecture. St. Augustine's rich history and lively culture are right at your doorstep! Whether you are looking at this property as a primary residence or a guaranteed cash flowing investment, this is a one of a kind home that you have to see to do it justice. Schedule a showing today to see it for yourself!
