You've found your waterfront oasis tucked under the White Birds of Paradise! This spacious retreat was formerly a commercial art gallery. Two queen beds, one full bathroom & full kitchen make for comfortable living! You have a fenced path leading you down to the beautiful waters of Salt Run where a rooftop deck & saltwater in-ground pool invites you to relax and slow down. Less than a mile to downtown St. Augustine, a little over a mile to the Amphitheater and about 3 miles to the beach.
Downstairs you have a combined living space with a queen bed, L-shaped couch, and kitchen with bar seating. The kitchen has a two-burner gas stovetop, full-sized retro fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, coffee pot, toaster & kettle.
Upstairs you have an A-frame hideaway! A comfortable queen bed, 2 office desks for remote working, and a bookshelf stocked with books and games for those (rare) rainy days. A dedicated, separate entrance to the upstairs bedroom makes it convenient for two couples.
You have a fenced path leading you down to the beautiful waters of Salt Run. Make your way up to the rooftop deck for some sunshine and incredible views while catching that awesome ocean breeze.
Time for a swim? In front of the waterside rooftop deck you'll find a large 15'x30' saltwater swimming pool. The pool has a large shallow-depth ledge perfect for relaxing or enjoying a book. The pool is available year-round & heated to 80-82 degrees.
The pool and rooftop deck are shared with one other vacation rental on this large property (more on that below).
Only a few blocks away, you have a full-service marina with lots of fishing charters and boat tour options.
Perfectly situated on a dead-end street just off the main boulevard. You are less than a mile to downtown St. Augustine, just a little over a mile to the Amphitheater, and about 3 miles to St. Augustine Beach. Additional nearby attractions include the Alligator Farm and St. Augustine Lighthouse, both within walking/biking distance or a very short drive.
Ready for the beach? Four nice quality beach chairs are provided with armrests and lay-flat functionality.
Parking is not an issue with two dedicated off-street parking spaces and fast wifi makes it easy to stay connected.
Washer & dryer is available for guests staying 4 nights or longer at no additional cost.
Other Things To Note:
This is a large property spanning almost a 1/2 acre. There are three separate buildings on the property. Each building has its own dedicated parking, private entrance and share no common walls. The waterfront rooftop deck & pool is shared between all. There is a photo that gives a satellite view of the property layout.
The heated pool temperature will be 80-82 degrees. The pool heater cannot function when outside temperature drops below 48 degrees. Therefore during cold fronts the water may drop below our set temperature until the heater can kick back on.
Quiet hours are from 10pm to 8am and pool hours are from sunrise to sunset.
The dock that can be seen in the background of some photos is our neighbor's. Dock access is not available for guests.
