This waterfront/canal home with separate mother-in-law suite is in the heart of St. Augustine Beach, with your own wrap-around deck with views of your canal that leads to the Intercoastal. You can fish right from your backyard or take a 10-minute stroll to a beach walkover and enjoy all that Crescent Beach has to offer. The space The separate mother-in-law suite located on the ground floor is great for additional family. It is not part of the central air upstairs and has its own separate window unit.

Guest access You will feel miles away from the stresses of daily life, yet you will be close to so much. It is a quick 20 min. drive to get into the heart of historic St. Augustine, with its restaurants, shops, museums, and pedestrian mall. Marineland is only five miles to the south. The quaint town of Flagler Beach is 30 minutes to the south. Disney World and Universal are only two hours away. The St. Augustine and St Johns County area have a great variety of golf courses for players of every level and skill. The history of St. Augustine is incomparable with almost any other on our coast. Founded in 1565 it is chock full of amazing places to visit, from the oldest house to the first schoolroom, to the impenetrable fort built by the Spanish. Lincolnville, just south of downtown St. Augustine takes you on a walking tour of the history of the civil rights movement noting where Martin Luther King stayed on numerous occasions. Needless to say, there’s also so many unique shops, and the restaurants are so varied and truly have an international flavor! There are things to do no matter the weather! You can take a free boat ride to Fort Matanzas and learn the history about the battles fought. Further south is Marineland where you can swim with dolphins! There are always concerts at St. Augustine Amphitheatre and events at Francis Field as well. You will never run out of things to do here in St. Augustine. It is probably one of the most beautiful places in all of Florida, and for sure one of the most photographed! Come and see for yourself! The location of this property makes it convenient to most local points of interest and the value can’t be beat for the amount of space!
