About this property

Historic luxury home, steps to Downtown

Beautiful, newly updated home. Built in 1900, this gorgeous, historic home has everything you could want for your perfect vacation. This meticulously maintained 4BR 3BA home (1 down, 3 up) is in the heart of Downtown St Augustine in the charming "Uptown" neighborhood. Uptown features a variety of antique shops, local boutiques, cozy cafes, and art galleries, all adding to its distinct, eclectic vibe. The neighborhood is also home to some beautifully preserved historic homes and is favored for its scenic walking routes.

A lot of care was taken to maintain the historic charm of this circa 1900 home, with original pine floors, exposed chimney, high first floor ceilings, crystal chandeliers, crown moldings, the original coquina gated garden wall at the front entrance and the rear patio made of 100+ yr old brick. The home has also been fully modernized with central air, gourmet kitchen, three remodeled full baths, washer/dryer, and all new furnishings. 

The outdoor area provides a beautiful space from morning until night. The expansive front porch with couch, swing, and rockers is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The backyard offers a beautiful mural hand painted by a local artist, hammock, large fire table, grill and plenty of seating. Both areas offer lighting at night so that you can enjoy the space anytime of day.

Absolute Perfection!
My family and I took my Mother-in-law to St. Augustine for a long weekend and we couldn’t be happier with this property! We were welcomed with a cheerful sign and a goody basket containing snacks and even a bottle of wine. The location was an easy walking distance to all of the popular spots in the historic area. In fact, we didn’t drive all weekend, only walked. The property was meticulously cared for and absolutely beautiful. We loved the outdoor space providing a nice seating area with beautiful landscaping surrounding us. The rooms were all tastefully decorated with beautiful furnishings. As a nice touch, they provided little baskets in the room with essentials in case you forgot anything. We couldn’t have asked for better stay! We will definitely be back!

An absolute gem!
5 star!! Our family of 8 adults have stayed in many vrbo’s all over the US - this one ticks all the boxes. Great location, clean, equipped with everything (truly, everything), and easy check in & out process. The little details set it apart - snacks, toiletries, wine - simply fantastic. Will absolutely stay again and highly recommend!!

Gorgeous Hone
We spent 4 days in St. Augustine for our daughter’s 21st birthday. This home was gorgeous, spotless, and had everything you could possibly need, and then some. The home is very close to historic downtown, so no need to even move your vehicle once you arrive, we walked everywhere. We could not have asked for better hosts! Betsy was so easy to get a hold of, and was very prompt with text! I would highly recommend this property, and we would stay here again as well without a doubt.
