7 St Andrews Saint Augustine, FL 32084

St Andrews Court - a magical tiny street in the heart of downtown, treasured by its handful of residents and still a well-kept secret. The pumpkin cottage at #7 is just as delightful as it looks from the court and those dark green steps beckon you up to the front porch to take it all in. A sweet spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails and lazy afternoons with your current book in hand. Sunshine and color fill the interior as you step into the front room presently used for dining. Honey-hued wood floors, classic moldings and woodwork - all the lovely original features are wonderfully intact. Dining opens to the living room where a bank of windows lets in diffused natural light to illuminate these gatherings spaces. In the evening lights tucked behind the crown molding gives these rooms a soft upward glow. Ample room for several seating options, there's expansive wall space to hang your favorite art too. Bedrooms are tucked away on the south side of the house. Main bedroom has a wealth of built-ins for welcome storage in addition to the closet. This is such a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring your new home base. Guest bedroom is in front and has a nice alcove for a bed, allowing for additional use when guests are not in residence. The hall bath is clad in shades of calming deep greens. Generous shower with niches for storing what you need and lots more under the sink. On the other side of the house lives the kitchen with more cabinets and counters than you might expect. Solid wood with cherry tones and complementing granite, your culinary muse will be inspired. A handy island is ideal for prep area, serving buffet style or setting up the bar for drinks. Laundry closet is here too so multitasking is made easy. Back door leads to the first of two courtyards. Deliciously private, this bricked oasis calls for al fresco dining and hosting friends who will line up when they find out where you live! On the far side, a storage shed keeps bikes and garden tools dry and out of sight. Adjacent to the house, the wee cottage is home to a conditioned office or hideaway. The second courtyard is off the driveway and enjoys more sunshine. A rare treat to park two cars side by side and you can do that here! Impeccably kept with a long list of improvements made by the owners who have loved every minute here. If you are seeking something truly special and singularly beautiful, you have come to the right place. We'll be waiting for you on the porch.
