Step into a coastal dream at Crescent Beach, where the stunning shoreline and glistening sugar sands await. Imagine yourself in this charming beach house, superbly positioned to offer the best of both worlds: the tranquil beach and the serene river. Your days can end with the mesmerizing sunsets over the Intracoastal Waterway, viewed from your spacious second-story deck or through the panoramic sliding glass doors.
This beach house is an idyllic retreat, perfect for vacations or as a seasonal escape with the added benefit of allowing short-term rentals. Free from HOA restrictions, it sits on a generous 0.41-acre, recently fenced lot brimming with possibilities, from adding multiple units to extending the existing single-family home to parking boats or other outdoor toys. Architectural plans for a main home addition, third-story deck, as well as a detached guest home are ready, offering a canvas for your vision with its flexible RG residential zoning.
The home itself radiates warmth and style with its 2 bed/2 bath layout, boasting an open floor plan that flows gracefully from the living area to the kitchen and dining space. The wall of sliding doors open up to breathtaking waterway vistas, turning the deck into an oasis for entertainment or quiet dining. Inside, striking hardwood floors complement the living spaces, while the bathrooms and laundry area feature stylish tiling. A fully equipped laundry room adds to the convenience. The home boasts modern upgrades including a new A/C, hot water heater, a durable 7-year-old roof, sleek Whirlpool appliances less than 3 years old, and recent city sewer connection upgrade. The first floor includes a two-car garage and a spacious area for storage or further development.
Location is key, and this home is a gateway to endless adventures. Stroll to Crescent Beach for a sun-kissed day, explore the nearby Washington Oaks State Park, or bike along the shaded Malacompra trails. Water enthusiasts can launch kayaks or paddle boards from the boat ramp just a short walk down the street. For a touch of history and culture, historic downtown Saint Augustine and its iconic lighthouse are just a short drive away, as are the Saint Augustine Alligator Farm and Marineland, offering unique wildlife experiences.
This nature-rich bungalow is more than a home; it’s a lifestyle, a place where every day is an exploration and every view a painting. Embrace the coastal living you’ve always dreamed of in this enchanting beach house.
