About this property

Northeast Florida Retreat

The Cove, your dream vacation home in St. Augustine's bustling West King district. This stunning 4-bedroom home has been recently updated to ensure you have all the essentials you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Not only are you steps away from top-rated breweries, cafes, and restaurants, but you're also within walking distance to historic downtown. With a large parking area that can accommodate boat trailers, RVs, and 8 vehicles, you won't have to worry about finding parking.

The heart of the city of St. Augustine is here in the Historic Downtown where guests will find a majority of the city's restaurants, shopping, hotels, and attractions. The Historic Downtown is the oldest part of the city with many buildings dating back to the 1700s — and with streets that have existed from long before that. The result is a walkable city obviously designed with old European concepts. Part of Historic Downtown, Lincolnville also offers an historic walking tour, museums, places to stay, and eateries.

You will have access to the entire property, patio area, and house.

Welcome to this stunning 4 bedroom, two-story house that exudes classic charm, built in the 1930s and completely remodeled to offer all the latest amenities. The open living room is perfect for relaxation, while the cozy dining room is perfect for intimate meals. The fully-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare your favorite dishes, and the inside laundry room provides added convenience.

The sleeping arrangements go as follows: Downstairs additional space/"bedroom" with sleeper sofa, Upstairs: Spacious Master Suite (King) with walk-in closet and private bathroom, guest bedroom 2 has full bed and two night stands and closet, Guest bedroom 3 with a trundle bed that has two single mattresses.

You can soak up the evening air on the covered front patio or the large side open patio, which features an abundance of outdoor dining space. Also, there is a charcoal grill and a wood burning fire pit to enjoy during your stay.

This home is a rare find in a city where parking is a challenge, as it provides ample space for over 8 vehicles and even has room for a boat trailer or RV. Come and make this your home away from home and experience the unique charm of this classic abode.

Quick Saint Augustine getaway

Grabbed the family and took the short trip up to Saint Augustine from Tampa. Wanted to experience the night of lights again and spend some time eating and drinking and having fun around the holidays. This cute little house was perfect for us! Three bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms accommodated us well while the dining area and kitchen were perfect for the few meals that we prepared there. We did not get to utilize the fire pit as the weather was a bit rainy but it looks like it would have been a good time. The house was clean and well stocked with towels and toiletries, along with K cups for the Keurig coffee pot. Five stars for sure.

PERFECT

This home is perfect- perfect location- perfectly clean- perfect communication! This home is situated in a quiet street & close to downtown St Augustine & beaches. The home is unique in that the owner has made welcome decorating additions. My husband had back surgery in December & in the little steps there were “indicators” to remind - VERY thoughtful. We will stay there again

The Cove

We rented the property for a long weekend but ended up not staying here for several reasons. We did not feel safe in the neighborhood due to the close proximity to a corner bar/other such establishment with people hanging out on the corner and in the street. The stairs to the second floor were very steep and we worried about our one year old grandson/other family members falling. While in the home we also heard an animal (sqirrel??)running over the office and living room ceiling. We did find the home to be very clean but wish VRBO would display the home address prior to actually having to rent the property as we ended up losing our rental money.
