Property Description
Welcome to an unparalleled gem of St. Augustine, where the timeless elegance of mid-century Spanish architecture meets the breathtaking beauty of Florida’s most historic city. This extraordinary estate, perched on the serene banks of the Intracoastal Waterway, offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of paradise with panoramic, unobstructed 180-degree views that simply cannot be replicated. Imagine waking up each morning to the sight of majestic ships and sailboats gliding past your backyard, with the iconic Bridge of Lions, the storied Castillo de San Marcos, and the timeless charm of historic downtown St. Augustine as your daily backdrop. From the Vilano Bridge to the Cross at the Mission Nombre de Dios, every inch of this view is a living masterpiece, showcasing the very best of what St. Augustine has to offer. On special occasions, your private oasis becomes the perfect front-row seat to the annual Fireworks Over The Matanzas. The property itself is a testament to fine craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Floor-to-ceiling windows perfectly frame this breathtaking view, allowing natural light to pour in and ensure that the stunning panorama is always the star of the show. The Spanish-style roof edge, adorned with intricate bird carvings is complemented by copper gutters that add a touch of sophistication. Step inside to discover heart pine floors in impeccable condition, and Saltillo tile, sourced from the riverbeds of Saltillo, Mexico, prized for its smooth, durable surface. With the property elevated above the ground, you can rest easy knowing your investment is secure. The HVAC system was updated in 2018 and the architectural shingle portion of the roof was installed new in 2016. The two car garage also offers an additional half bath. And for those with grand visions, the included blueprints provide the option to add a second story, further enhancing the already magnificent views. A rare feature in this coastal paradise is the potential for a private deep-water dock. The property is equipped with pilings from a 120 foot dock, previously permitted by the city, allowing you to build a dock that perfectly suits your boat and lifestyle. Imagine setting sail from your own backyard, with the historic heart of St. Augustine just minutes away. This is more than a home; it’s a legacy—a unique, irreplaceable vantage point that offers the best view in all of St. Augustine. Whether you’re enjoying the short walk to the vibrant restaurants and shops of historic downtown or simply savoring the tranquility of your private waterfront sanctuary, this is a rare opportunity to own a slice of history with a view that can never be duplicated. Seize the chance to make this dream home your own, and experience the ultimate in luxury living.
