After nearly a year under contract in a lease-purchase agreement, this charming home is back on the market due to a financing fall-through—offering a second chance at a truly special property in one of St. Augustine's most treasured neighborhoods. Just steps from the heart of historic St. Augustine, in the cherished Nelmar Terrace District, this gracious 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home (with three bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs) sits proudly on a .30-acre lot, offering both space and serenity beneath a canopy of ancient oaks. With over 2,600 square feet of living space, the home invites you into an era of craftsmanship rarely seen today.
Tucked behind the main house is a rare gem: a two-story detached garage, thoughtfully converted into additional living space—complete with a full bathroom—ideal for a guest suite, studio, or private office. Entertaining comes easy here. The expansive, enclosed sunroom (nearly 450 square feet) features vaulted ceilings and generous natural light, flowing out to the back deck, perfect for quiet mornings or lively evenings. Inside, the family room offers a warm invitation with a wood-burning fireplace and mantle, a cozy nod to traditional Florida living.
While the home's amenities retain a touch of vintage charm, they offer the perfect canvas for thoughtful updates, all while preserving the soul of the property.
The setting is unmatched peaceful, tree-lined streets, just a short stroll to the bayfront and the storied streets of downtown. Located beside the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind, this home rests in a neighborhood rich with history, beauty, and a strong sense of place.
Priced to reflect both value and opportunity, this home is a rare offering in one of St. Augustine's most beloved enclaves.
