About this property

💲Renovated Lemon Guesthouse💲 4 KING Bedrooms - Downtown Half Mile Stroll- Beach Only 3 Miles

Great Downtown Location only half mile stroll to St George Street, the center of the Historic District, yet only 3 Miles to Vilano Beach or 5 to St Augustine Beach Pier. We provide Boogie Boards, Beach Towels and Chairs. It is really the "Best of Both Worlds". This 2017 Remodel Guesthouse combines the Old World charm of Heart of Pine Floors & Claw Foot Tub with the NEW look of Marble and Glass. Designed to be a versatile space you can rent the entire Guesthouse, shown here, or just the top or just the bottom. Renting the Guesthouse with both floors gives you 2 Kitchens, 2 Greatroom, 2 Laundries and 2 Outdoor Dining spaces. 4 King Bedrooms & 2 Queen Sleepers + 2 Singles & 3.5 Baths. It comfortably Sleeps 14 to allow you to come together and create lasting memories. Pet Friendly with a 125 Non-Refundable Pet Fee. And if you need more space you can rent the 3 BD 3 BA Main House in front or one of my other 4 Downtown Homes less than 2 blocks away.Check out these and my direct Oceanfront homes at the links below.

UPSTAIRS PALM VIEW - 3 Bedroom 2 Bath - Included (To rent separately see https://www.vrbo.com/4646734ha?dateless=true)

It all centers around the Greatroom and the Kitchen. The Great room with Large Smart TV (3 TVs in all) has plenty of seating with a Leather Queen Sleeper Sofa + Love Seat & 2 Swivel Chairs. It features a unique 2 Headed Revolving Fan you will love and gorgeous original gray hand stained Heart Of Pine Floors.

The Kitchen is Open Style with cooking and Dining in one space. The Kitchen is from my old Homestead in Tennessee. The cabinets are Poplar. They were originally built over 50 years ago and even at that time the wood was antique. Supposedly these Poplars died out long ago and you cannot buy the wood any more. My Father found it when they were tearing down an old Elementary School in my home town of Shelbyville Tennessee (Walking Horse Capital of the World if you have heard of us). I always loved them as a child. So when I heard they were tearing down my homestead I had to save them. I have spent hours restoring them. I hope you will appreciate them and an Old Farm Sink which I salvaged. The is a New SOAP STONE Counter Island for extra seating and a Handmade Butcher Block Coffee Bar. New Stainless Appliances. Lovingly White Washed Pine Ceiling. Unique Dining Table with Lazy Susan + another Revolving Fan.

There are 3 Bedrooms. All with King Beds with Smart TVs and Fee Wifi.

The Master with Private Bath was originally a Sleeping Porch. I enclosed it, raised it and added Light Pine Floors. It has a King Bed + a Fold-down Sofa for extra Sleeping or relaxing. The Bath is all Marble Floors and Glass. I fell in love with the Spa Glass Doors and used them to the Bath and Closet and carried the Glass look into the Shower with floor to ceiling Subway Glass Tiles. The Vanity is Marble topped with unique retro Faucet.There is large Marble floor Closet with room for a Pack-N-Play, available upon request.

Bedroom 2 has a similar walk in closet and shares a bath with Bedroom 3. Both have King Beds! I have learned what you want. (I agree after one night on a King it is hard to go back).

The Bath has the "Original" Claw Foot Tub stamped with a 1919 date. We added a shower option for your convenience but let me suggest you try a bubble bath. My Husband and I only do "Tubs". Try it. This is the time to relax. You are on vacation!

My sons favorite is the ceiling Night Light/Fan in the Bath. It blue tooth's to your phone so you can play your music (if you can figure it out. I provide instructions in the Move-in but that does not always help. Need a Millennial). My Husband loves the "Blue" Night Light. I like the Marble Floors & Bead board walls.

There is a Laundry on the first floor with Linens & Towels provided.

Outside is a private Paver Patio with Dining and romantic String Lights overhead. The Grill that can go Gas (provided) or Charcoal.

1ST FLOOR SECRET GARDEN - 1 Bedroom 1.5 Bath - Included - (To rent separately see https://www.vrbo.com/4647397ha?dateless=true)

The 1st Floor has a totally different look. The floors are beautiful White Marble throughout. It includes a second Greatroom with Smart TV and Queen Sleeper Sofa. Fully stocked Kitchen made from the same Tennessee Poplar. A Second Laundry.

There is a Half Bath in the Greatroom for Guests and a Huge Master Bedroom with Private Marble Bath, of course a King Bed plus a roll-out Single Trundle. Great for a "Little One". There is also a giant Walk-in Closet with room for Pack N Play. You will recognize my beloved Glass Spa Doors like upstairs and this time a Marble & Glass Shower with removable Hand-Held Shower Head. The Vanity is Marble with Twin Sinks and loads of hooks.

A frosted mural glass door off the Master leads to a private "Secret Garden" with a second Grill and Covered Dining area so you will have 2 private Outdoor spaces to enjoy. Plenty of room for everyone.

PARKING

There are 3 dedicated Parking spot in the Alley and unlimited parking on Lemon with a lit paver sidewalk beside the Main Home leading back to the Guesthouse.

LOCATION

We are located Downtown at 67 1/2 Lemon St only 5 miles to my favorite beach called St Augustine Beach just south of Anastasia Park over the Bridge of Lions. Their is lots of parking & public restrooms + amazing Restaurants. There is a great Farmer Market on Wednesdays and in the Summer even FREE Wednesday night outdoor concerts. The sand is perfect for building Sand Castles. The waves are great for Surfing. We provide Boogie Boards or you can rent Surf Boards and take lessons or rent bikes at A Street. Towels and Beach Chairs provided.

But you will find so much to do Downtown you will probably only go to the Beach the first day. Downtown is a world all its own. Simply Charming. Especially at night with the lights twinkling and the sound of music filling the streets. Great Restaurants. Great History. Great People. All walking distance from your door. What more do you want? Call for my list of Recommended THINGS TO DO and RESTAURANTS.

PETS Welcome

Just remember to check the Pet Box when you are making your reservation. There is a 125 nonrefundable Pet Fee.

NEED MORE SPACE

Please keep us in mind for small or large groups both Downtown and at the Beach. We have very versatile accommodations. In addition to renting the whole Lemon Guesthouse, shown here, you could rent the Main House in front, called the Lemon Retreat or just the first or second floor as noted above. I invite you to also consider my other 4 Downtown homes, all within 2 blocks. Or you may want some friends stay at the Beach so you can have the Best of Both Worlds.

Loved it
Our book club normally meets virtually, but once a year, we meet in person to just hang out, see some sites, and spend time together. We look for places to stay that will accommodate 8 people that is within walkable distance to sites, shops, and restaurants. The location of this property did not disappoint. Prior to our arrival, the host reached out and provided check in procedures (basically a key code to the doors, which is tricky because the key pad doesn’t “read” the first number punched in, but the host’s hubby happened by when we were trying to get in and gave us a hand). We rented both guest houses, which meant a weird walk-through a very narrow broom closet to get to the other side, but it was fine. Pros: Location. It’s close to all the sites, but not so close that you can hear city-life throughout the night. The number of beds and bathrooms is nice. The host’s explanation of things to do and her explanation of how to access the property. Bonus: Some of our party arrived early and the host allowed slightly early access since it was already cleaned. King-sized beds allowed for space for sleeping when sharing a room. Cons: The kitchen area is small in one house and the location of the couch, adjacent to the kitchen, puts your back to those eating in the kitchen. You have to be willing to share a bed if you have more than 4 people. There are some electrical issues that are concerning. Overall, we had a great time & were glad we stayed at Lemon House.

Awesome Home
We rented the entire Lemon Guest house for our daughter's wedding at the Lightner Museum. Location is a bit of a walk to most of the downtown spots (about 10-15 minutes). Everything with the property was as described. Parking was a bit tricky, but we were able to squeeze in 4 vehicles. I would definitely recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Bayles

Host profile image
My name is Linda Bayles. I have been a Realtor in the Jacksonville/St Augustine area ranking in the Top 1% of Agents since 1998. In 2005 I walked into a 1926 beach cottage direct oceanfront on St Augustine Beach and knew I had found my calling. I wanted to 'Create' a vacation space for Families. Large extended families. A place were Cousins, Grandmothers, Uncles and Aunts can comfortably come together to reconnect and enjoy each other away from the demands of the outside world. I come from a large family of 5 children as does my husband, Brad. Some of my fondest memories are when we all got together to just 'hang out' for 3 or 4 days. The little ones always come up with a 'play'. The adults always congregate in the Kitchen passing down the 'Family Recipes' to the next generation and playing Games. We are a big Game playing family. Specifically Rummikub. We start them at 5 and My Mother is still going at 95. If you have never played, you must. I make sure there is one in each house. Once you are hooked and have one of your own, I hope you will think of your St Augustine stay every time you play.

So I bought that 1926 Craftsman, gutted it and turned it into The Chautauqua which sleeps 21. It has been a rewarding success. In 2011, my Father expanded the tradition and bought 4 homes on one Oceanfront compound on 9th Street. We could not believe our luck and spent the next year remodeling them into The Seaside Cottages. We started renting them in June of 2012. The Best part is not only the homes but the BEACH. There are only 18 streets on the “Best Beach” - No cars. No Catwalk. The ocean right at your door. Great Restaurants within walking distance. Amazing.

And then I discovered the charm of Downtown St Augustine. At night it is like strolling in an old European City. So in 2016 I decide to moved Downtown and renovated 4 more Downtown Vacation Rentals. Ranging from 1 to 4 Bedrooms all walking distance of St George Street, the Center of Historic Downtown and all the Restaurants, Sights and Music and only 2 blocks from each other. Great for Downtown Weddings with the Bride taking one house and the Groom the other.

My Goal is to provide the best vacation spot possible. I hope you will stay with us and create memories you will cherish for a lifetime. Feel free to call or text me any time.

Always at your service,

Linda Bayles

PS: I am also a Realtor. I work primarily as a Single Agent. There are not many of us out there. Most Realtors work as neutral Transaction Agents. You can google 'Buyers Agent' to get an overview of the difference. I think it is big. Just ask yourself the question, Would I want the other sides Attorney to represent me too? That's it in a nut shell but the amazing thing is, unlike Attorneys, it does not cost you anything to have your OWN Realtor representing just YOUR interest. We are all paid by the Seller. So .... I would love to help if you are thinking about buying or selling in the area. Just call and I will send photos of what's available. Once here I would love to give you a tour of the area and take you "shopping". We can see about 4 per hour and you have me as long as it takes.
