Description

SEASIDE COTTAGE 2 - 2 BEDROOM 3 BATH - SLEEPS 7

Renovated Two Story Home with GREAT OCEAN VIEWS on the BEST BEACH (No cars, No long catwalk & scores of great Restaurants within walking distance + only 5 Miles to DOWNTOWN) - Great Open Plan with stunning Views from the Covered Balcony that runs the full length of the home with 2 Private Bedroom Suites downstairs each with their own bath (1 King & 1 Queen) + a Twin Daybed and Queen Sleeper Sofa in the Greatroom with Full bath so you can comfortably sleep 7. Complete with Outdoor Shower, Beach Chairs, Boogie Boards & a Paver Patio with Grill & Private Dining. Need more space there are 3 more Cottages for your friends!

Covid-19 Update: We are Open and following the new CDC Cleaning Guidelines. The Restaurants are Open at 100% capacity and masks are required in stores but everything is open. With Free Wifi and you own Private Beach House, now is the perfect time to "Work from Home" while enjoying loved ones, the Sun and the Beach! Plus the St Augustine Festival of Lights which turns Downtown into a Magical city through January 31.

In 2012 we completed a TOTAL renovation of 4 Homes located on one OCEANFRONT lot at 2 9th Street, the "Center" of the "Best Section" of St Aug Beach. Loads of activities & restaurants within walking distance. No long 10 minute catwalk before you reach the sand. No Cars allowed on the Beach. Just powder white sand steps from your door. Seaside Cottage 2 is my favorite. With 'Top-of-the-Line' finishes that make it look like a Coastal Living centerfold. It boasts an Open Greatroom, Kitchen, Dining space on the second floor with amazing Ocean Views from the Covered Deck that runs the entire length of the home. There are 2 Private Bedroom Suites downstairs each with their own bath (1 King & 1 Queen) + a Twin Daybed and Queen Sleeper Sofa in the Greatroom with Full bath so you can comfortably sleep 7.

Located just 5 miles from Historic Downtown St Augustine, my goal was to create the "Ultimate Vacation Experience" for small to large groups. All the Cottages are renovated in the same Coastal Style. Crisp White Linens. Bead board walls. Soft beach colors. I want you to tell your friends this is your favorite place (and bring them with you next year). With 4 Cottage ranging from 1 to 5 Bedrooms there is room for everyone yet everyone has their space. It does not get any better than this! 

It starts with the second story Greatroom and the spectacular ocean views ...

OCEAN VIEW GREATROOM - To recreate the feel of a true beach house we wanted real Heart of Pine floors. Here you cannot go new. You have to go old. They don't sell the good stuff anymore. We found a mill in Georgia and had the floors made for us out of 100 yr old timbers from a building out of Nashville, TN (only 50 miles from where I grew up in Shelbyville, Walking Horse Capital of the World). Then we added a huge side picture window to enhance the view and two sets of French Doors opening out to a Covered Oceanfront Balcony with amazing Ocean Views, Breezes and Sounds. The Balcony runs the entire front of the Cottage and has uninterrupted views over the smaller one-story Cottages. In St Augustine you really must be on the second floor to have the true Ocean View and this Cottage sure does. For your entertainment we added a wall mounted Big Screen TV with Comcast and Wireless Internet. Even a Streaming Video box for You Tube and Netflix (if you have an account). You can  even view the family photos together on the big screen or share hours of fun playing games on the large Dining Table.  We provide several, but I recommend Rummikub. It is our family favorite and can be played from 5 to 95. It is a game where you actually have to think and I hope it will become a tradition in your family too and make you think or your stay in St Augustine for years to come. There a are 2 Bedrooms downstairs with private baths but if you need more space the Greatroom leather sofa folds out into a Queen Sleeper with access to a Full Bath by the Kitchen.  We've also added a Twin Daybed for extra seating/sleeping.

GOURMET KITCHEN - We had the kitchen custom made. Lots of glass doors so you could find things, even bead board inside to give it that “Beachy” look.  And “white granite” counters.  It is in all the magazines, so I had to have it, but can't tell you how hard it was to find. The stainless appliances feature the new French door refrigerator, a convection Smooth Top Stove with 2 ovens so you can cook 'two things at once' & the quietest dishwasher I have ever heard. It is fully equipped with Pottery Barn dishes and glasses and all the pot, pans and utensils you'll need to create a gourmet meal.  You will enjoy cooking so much and you may save enough money to stay another night!  We hope so.

TWO BEDROOMS with PRIVATE BATHS - The Bedrooms are both downstairs. Here we used a cool, soft gray marble. The most beautiful stone I've ever seen. There is one King Bedroom and one Queen. I had both Headboards custom built with Reading Sconces on each side for those who love reading in bed.  Plus 42” wall mounted TVs and wireless internet. Both bedrooms have there own private bathrooms. One with a large 6' shower and 2 shower heads. The other with dramatically lit Garden Tub and separate “Rain-head” Shower. 

OUTDOOR GRILL & DINING. In back is a huge paver patio with private Dining featuring New String Lights for atmosphere. It is a combo grill for both gas or charcoal since we did not know which you would prefer. Also, an outdoor shower with hot and cold water when returning from the beach.  Chairs and Boogie Boards provided as well as both Bath and Beach towels.  

PRIVATE WASHER/DRYER in the Kitchen

Lemon Guest House (Both Floors) - Both Floors - 4 Bedroom 3.5 Bath - Sleeps 15 - 4651526

BEST BEACH - Now to the Beach and why I call it the "Best Beach". You need to do your research here. There is a tremendous difference and only 18 in the  Best section located North of A Street. Why? I have 5 reasons... 

1. The SAND.  The sand is like powder, not coarse ground up shells like Vilano to the north. This is the white powder you are looking for. Great for drip castles! 

2. The OCEAN is RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR STEP.  There is no long raised boardwalk like further south along Atlantic View with a 5 minute walk across the dunes to navigate with the cooler & chairs before you ever get to the water.  Here the ocean and the VIEW is steps from your door.  Be careful. There are some “beachfront” homes that are so “far from the beach” because of the sand dunes that you can hardly “see” the ocean.

3. There are NO CARS.  This is a major distinction.  Everything south of A Street has Cars. Imagine trying to play paddle ball or throwing football with cars continually passing by & having to be on constant baby alert. Not while you are on vacation! 

4. The beach is WIDE and level with GREAT WAVES. You have to be careful here too. Some beaches to the north on Vilano are narrow & steep, even with rocks, and the slope of the beach affects the waves. They break right at the shore line so close in you can't ride boogie boards. The locals consider this the BEST SURFING around. There is a Surf Shop, Pitt Surf, at A Street where you can rent boards and take lessons. You don't have to worry. This is not the West Coast. Waves are not too big and not too small. They are "just right". But you will have loads of fun with the boogie boards provide at The Seaside Cottages free of char

5. Last but not least, the beach is within WALKING DISTANCE of loads of restaurants & shops. Many beaches both north and south are so isolated you have a long drive to get to anything. Not The Seaside Cottages. It is so nice to be able to walk over to a restaurant for breakfast or send the kids out an Ice cream cone. We have an amazing number of "wonderful" restaurants within walking distance. Our favorite Sunset Grill is a must. Even Live music at Cafe 11 & funky Jacks BBQ. At the Fishing Pier the Kids will love the Splash Park plus Beach Volleyball courts, there is a Farmers Market on Wednesday and Free Live Music Concerts every Wednesday night in the Summer. How wonderful is that? Publix and Starbucks are only 1.5 mile away. There is a park half mile north on Pope with Tennis or a YMCA for swimming or workout w/Daily or Weekly memberships if you are not a member at home. Just south is Miniature Golf which kids will love. And Royal St Augustine Golf for the Adults close by on 16. (World Golf and TPC/Sawgrass are about 30 minutes). See THINGS TO DO at my Website or call to let me know what you are looking for. I always answer my phone!

ONLY 5 MILES to DOWNTOWN - There is more to St Augustine that just the Beach. Our Downtown founded in 1565 is the oldest continuously occupied European Settlement in the  US and one of the Top 6 Florida destinations according to US News & World Reports. (They rank us #2 Best Affordable Honeymoon Destination and our Beach #5 in USA). You'll feel like you are back in time. Strolling Old World Walking Streets. Romantic Lighting. Outdoor Music filling the air. There are scores Historic Sights and fabulous Restaurants. Call or my LIST of THINGS TO DO. With the Beach and the History we are truly a "Must Do".

BOOKMARK ME - Please keep us in mind for small or large groups both at the Beach or Downtown. In addition to the other 3 Cottages on this lot ranging from 1 to 5 Bedrooms (Sleeps 5, 6  & 19) just a few block south, we have an even larger Oceanfront home, The Chautauqua, with 7 Bedrooms & 5.5 Baths (Sleeps 21). Downtown are 2 Historic Homes just 2 blocks from each other, great for Wedding Guests, that range from 1 to 4 Bedrooms (Sleeping 2 to 14 each - 28 Total). 

CALL LINDA - My goal is to create the "Ultimate Vacation Experience" on the "Best Beach" and have it become a part of "Your Family Tradition".

About Lindas Beach
My name is Linda Bayles. I have been a Realtor in the Jacksonville/St Augustine area ranking in the Top 1% of Agents since 1998. In 2005 I walked into a 1926 beach house on St Augustine Beach and knew I had found my calling. I wanted to 'Create' a vacation space for Families. Large extended families. A place were Cousins, Grandmothers, Uncles and Aunts can comfortably come together to reconnect and enjoy each other away from the demands of the outside world. I come from a large family of 5 children as does my husband, Brad. Some of my fondest memories are when we all got together to just 'hang out' for 3 or 4 days. The little ones always come up with a 'play'. The adults always congregate in the Kitchen passing down the 'Family Recipes' to the next generation and playing Games. We are a big Game playing family. Specifically Rummikub. We start them at 5 and My Mother is still going at 95. If you have never played, you must. I make sure there is one in each house. Once you are hooked and have one of your own, I hope you will think of your St Augustine stay every time you play.
 
So I bought that 1926 Craftsman, gutted it and turned it into The Chautauqua which sleeps 21. It has been a rewarding success. In 2011, my Father expanded the tradition and bought 4 homes on one Oceanfront compound on 9th Street. We could not believe our luck and spent the next year remodeling them into The Seaside Cottages. We started renting them in June of 2012. The Best part is not only the homes but the BEACH. There are only 18 streets on the “Best Beach”. No cars. No Catwalk. The ocean right at your door. Wide Beach to make great Sand Castles. Great Restaurants within walking distance. Amazing.
 
And then I discovered the charm of Downtown St Augustine. At night it is like strolling in an old European City. So in 2016 I decide to moved Downtown and renovated 4 more Downtown Vacation Rentals. Ranging from 1 to 4 Bedrooms, all walking distance of St George Street (the Center of Historic Downtown and all the Restaurants, Sights and Music) and only 2 blocks from each other. Great for Downtown Weddings with the Bride taking one house and the Groom the other.
 
My Goal is to provide the best vacation spot possible. I hope you will stay with us and create memories you will cherish for a lifetime. Feel free to call me any time day or night at 904.465.3852.
 
Always at your service,
 
Linda Bayles

PS: I am also a Realtor so if you fall in love the the area as much as I did I would love to help. I work primarily as a Buyers Agent. There are not many of us out there. Most Realtors work as neutral Transaction Agents. You can Google 'Buyers Agent' to get an overview of the difference. I think it is big. Just ask yourself the question, Would I want the other sides Attorney to represent you? No. That's it in a nut shell but the amazing thing is, unlike Attorneys, it does not cost you anything to have your OWN Realtor representing YOUR interest. We are all paid by the Seller. So .... I would love to help if you are thinking about buying or selling in the area. Just call and I will send photos of what's available. Once here I will give you a tour of the area and take you "shopping". We can see about 4 per hour and you have me as long as it takes. Looking forward to it!
