It's one of very few that enjoy marsh views, abundant natural light, and refreshing sea breezes. The main house and detached guest cottage provide privacy and breathtaking views at the quiet end of East Park Avenue, steps from San Marco Avenue, Uptown and historic downtown St. Augustine. The Main House is modernized with interior renovations completed in 2022, the main house offers nearly 1,500 square feet of living space.

The light-filled main house is rich with character, featuring a barrel-vaulted living room ceiling, original Craftsman fireplace, and generous trim details. The dining room/study features a custom-built library wall and stylish vintage lighting. The kitchen embraces a clean, timeless aesthetic with white shaker cabinetry, a gray mosaic tile backsplash, modern recessed lighting and chandelier, stainless steel appliances and a stylish gas range. Upstairs, the wooden spiral staircase goes from the living room up into the spacious loft bedroom, providing a flexible space for multiple uses with potential for an additional bathroom. It makes a great home office and guest room, a play area for children, or a personal art studio.

This also has potential for a second driveway. The house has two separate 30-amp electrical services on either side of the property, ideal for RVs, travel trailers, or other recreational uses. There is also kayak storage on the side of the cottage. There is a public kayak and paddleboard launch at the end of the street with direct access to the waterways leading to downtown, the fort, and beyond.
