SEASIDE COTTAGE 2 - 2 BEDROOM 3 BATH - SLEEPS 7

Why Cottage 2? In 2012 we completed a TOTAL renovation of 4 Homes located on one OCEANFRONT lot at 2 9th Street, the "Center" of the "Best Section" of St Aug Beach. Loads of activities & restaurants within walking distance. No long 10 minute catwalk before you reach the sand. No Cars allowed on the Beach. Just powder white sand steps from your door. Seaside Cottage 2 is my favorite. With 'Top-of-the-Line' finishes that make it look like a Coastal Living centerfold. It boasts an Open Greatroom, Kitchen, Dining space on the second floor with amazing Ocean Views from the Covered Deck that runs the entire length of the home. There are 2 Private Bedroom Suites downstairs each with their own bath (1 King & 1 Queen) + a Twin Daybed and Queen Sleeper Sofa in the Greatroom with Full bath so you can comfortably sleep 7. Check out the WALK THRU Videos under the Floor Plan Tab. It is the best way to get a feel of the house. Just use your mouse to walk thru. I think you will love it. And here is a new Birdseye Video so you can see how all the Cottages fit together and how close they are to the sea and the Restaurants: CLICK HERE







Located just 5 miles from Historic Downtown St Augustine, my goal was to create the "Ultimate Vacation Experience" for small to large groups. All the Cottages are renovated in the same Coastal Style. Crisp White Linens. Bead board walls. Soft beach colors. I want you to tell your friends this is your favorite place (and bring them with you next year). With 4 Cottage ranging from 1 to 5 Bedrooms there is room for everyone yet everyone has their space. It does not get any better than this!

It starts with the second story Greatroom and the spectacular ocean views ...

OCEAN VIEW GREATROOM - To recreate the feel of a true beach house we wanted real Heart of Pine floors. Here you cannot go new. You have to go old. They don't sell the good stuff anymore. We found a mill in Georgia and had the floors made for us out of 100 yr old timbers from a building out of Nashville, TN (only 50 miles from where I grew up in Shelbyville, Walking Horse Capital of the World). Then we added a huge side picture window to enhance the view and two sets of French Doors opening out to a Covered Oceanfront Balcony with amazing Ocean Views, Breezes and Sounds. The Balcony runs the entire front of the Cottage and has uninterrupted views over the smaller one-story Cottages. In St Augustine you really must be on the second floor to have the true Ocean View and this Cottage sure does. For your entertainment we added a wall mounted Big Screen TV with Comcast and Wireless Internet. Even a Streaming Video box for You Tube and Netflix (if you have an account). You can even view the family photos together on the big screen or share hours of fun playing games on the large Dining Table. We provide several, but I recommend Rummikub. It is our family favorite and can be played from 5 to 95. It is a game where you actually have to think and I hope it will become a tradition in your family too and make you think or your stay in St Augustine for years to come. There a are 2 Bedrooms downstairs with private baths but if you need more space the Greatroom leather sofa folds out into a Queen Sleeper with access to a Full Bath by the Kitchen. We've also added a Twin Daybed for extra seating/sleeping.

GOURMET KITCHEN - We had the kitchen custom made. Lots of glass doors so you could find things, even bead board inside to give it that “Beachy” look. And “white granite” counters. It is in all the magazines, so I had to have it, but can't tell you how hard it was to find. The stainless appliances feature the new French door refrigerator, a convection Smooth Top Stove with 2 ovens so you can cook 'two things at once' & the quietest dishwasher I have ever heard. It is fully equipped with Pottery Barn dishes and glasses and all the pot, pans and utensils you'll need to create a gourmet meal. You will enjoy cooking so much and you may save enough money to stay another night! We hope so.

TWO BEDROOMS with PRIVATE BATHS - The Bedrooms are both downstairs. Here we used a cool, soft gray marble. The most beautiful stone I've ever seen. There is one King Bedroom and one Queen. I had both Headboards custom built with Reading Sconces on each side for those who love reading in bed. Plus 42” wall mounted TVs and wireless internet. Both bedrooms have their own private bathrooms. One with a large 6' shower and 2 shower heads. The other with dramatically lit Garden Tub and separate “Rain-head” Shower.

OUTDOOR GRILL & DINING. In back is a huge paver patio with BBQ, Private dining table and chairs with new String Lights for atmosphere. Complete with a combo grill for both gas or charcoal since we did not know which you would prefer. Also, an outdoor shower with hot and cold water when returning from the beach. Chairs and Boogie Boards provided as well as both Bath and Beach towels.

2 PARKING SPOTS

NO PETS - NO SMOKING - NO PARTIES

NEED MORE SPACE? - Check out 3 more Oceanfront homes on this same Oceanfront lot ranging from 1 to 5 Bedrooms located at 2 9th Street. If you book all 4 Cottages it can sleep 35. Plus I have another large Oceanfront 7 Bedroom 6.5 Bath home just 9 streets south at 2 1st Lane that can sleep up to 21. And Downtown I have 7 Options. You can see them all on my website LindasBeach.com or see the single listings below. They are clustered together to accommodate large gatherings or wedding guests. Often the Husband's side can take one group of homes and wife's the other. Everyone is close but not too close. Just send my website to all your friends and guest and they can be sure they have booked near each other and the action. Makes choosing your Vacation Rental easy.

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. Everything within walking distance.

In 2016 I moved to Downtown St Augustine and added 4 more Downtown Homes walking distance of St George Street, the Center of Historic Downtown and all the Restaurants, Sights and Music. It is absolutely charming at night. You will feel you are strolling an old European City. A must see.

I hope you will stay with us and create memories you will cherish for a lifetime. Feel free to call me any time day or night at 904.465.3852.

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.
