General overview
This house has a fantastic floor plan. The vaulted ceiling makes the open living room (has a sleeper sofa), dining room, and kitchen feel spacious even with your entire group gathering there. We have a driveway that will easily accommodate two vehicles.
We love the location - we are 3 miles from historic downtown St. Augustine and all that it has to offer - Castillo de San Marcos National Monument, St. George Street, Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park, Bridge of Lions, Flagler College, Lightner Museum, and many fabulous restaurants. We are also 5 miles from the nearest beach, 5 miles to the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Maritime museum. We are 20 miles to Marineland, 39 miles to both Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra. For longer day trips we are 55 miles to Daytona Beach, 120 miles to the Kennedy Space Center and to Disney World. Please visit us and explore all the beautiful Northeast Florida has to offer! St. Augustine has something for everyone - excellent restaurants, bars, and distilleries, great shopping, fishing, golf, wonderful beaches, plenty of tourist attractions, and incredible history!
The space
The house has 3 bedrooms (1 bedroom with a king sized bed, 1 bedroom with a queen sized bed , and 1 bedroom with two twin XL beds) and two full bathrooms. When using the sleeper sofa in the living room we can accommodate up to 8 people. Each bedroom has a closet with plenty of storage space. The largest bedroom as an en suite full bathroom and features a walk in shower.
The kitchen is bright, updated, well equipped and we have seating at the kitchen island as well as the dining table.
Our laundry room has a washer/dryer, ironing board and plenty of organizational space.
The front porch is covered and has 4 outdoor chairs and is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or tea. We do have a small deck that is off the kitchen on the side of the house. The entire back yard is enclosed with a privacy fence - great back yard for pets. We use a septic system and the backyard has a septic mound. It is hard to see in the pictures but it is covered with grass as is basically an area of the back yard that is elevated a couple of feet and then has a flat area - it is a like a small plateau.
Guest access
Our house is a ranch style house which means that there are no steps/stairs in the house. We have two steps from the driveway to the front porch/entrance to the house. You will have access to the entire driveway, house and back yard during your stay.
Notes
We do have a Ring Doorbell camera that faces from the front door to the driveway. That is the only camera on the property.

We are in a quiet neighborhood where you can escape the hustle and bustle of downtown but still have quick access to downtown St. Augustine is only 3 miles away. The aerial pictures (taken in fall of 2022) show the current state of the neighborhood, but this area is developing so reach out if you are interested in an exchange and I can tell you if the trees/forest is still across the street or if other houses have been built. Just want to make sure that you have an up to date idea about the neighborhood.

We had a lovely holiday at Pat's place. We spent just over a week there with my parents and the house was a great base for exploring St. Augustine. Pat was a fabulous host - always available for any questions we had and an excellent curated map of the top spots to visit and eat at in the area. We didn't have the pleasure of meeting Pat directly but we did get to meet his lovely parents who made the journey to the house to pick up a few little gifts we had brought along and to assist with the final cleaning details as we opt to pay for a cleaner in order to leave the house perfect for the next guests. The description and the pictures give you a good feel for the property so there are no surprises. We cooked many meals in and the kitchen is well set up for you. All in all another fantastic exchange in the books for us. -
Pat and Valerie are so friendly and welcoming to their gorgeous, new home. The kitchen and front room layout were ideal for our 4 adults making meals together in the evenings after the daily activities. And St Augustine is one of my favorite places to visit. History, beaches, downtown, golf, lots of museums, and just such a beautiful area. Loved it! I look forward to welcoming them to my home next! :)
