Waterfront gem in the Historic District of St. Augustine! This beautifully updated 2BR/2BA home offers navigable water access with stunning marsh and Intracoastal views from a quiet dead-end street. Elevated on stilts, the home features all ceramic tile, a wood-burning fireplace, and a stylish kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a mother-of-pearl backsplash. Recent upgrades include a new metal roof, windows, doors, gutters, and a brand-new lower deck with retractable awning. Enjoy a fenced yard, parking for 4+ vehicles including RV/boat, and a very successful Airbnb history. NO HOA!!! Prime location!!! Bike to the beach, walk to downtown St. Augustine and the Fort, with access to a community park, and garden. Ideal as a primary residence, second home, or investment property.

What to check on this one

  • Verify actual flood zone designation and elevation certificate—waterfront + stilts suggest AE/VE.
  • Confirm metal roof installation date and manufacturer warranty details.
  • Obtain short-term rental (Airbnb) permit status and city compliance documentation.
  • Request plumbing inspection—1989 build may have polybutylene or cast-iron issues.
  • Review property insurance quotes; waterfront + age = higher premiums and potential insurer limits.
  • Get estoppel letter and verify no unpaid assessments or liens on title.

Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
