Do you like history? You'll fall in love with this charming, updated & historic cottage set on a 1/2 acre w/gorgeous trees just a hop, skip & jump away from all St Augustine offers. There are three bedrooms & two baths, plus living room, dining room, all-weather sun porch, an office & a large kitchen. Enter the front door into an all-weather, light-filled sunroom. Beside it is another light-filled room, w/a door, perfect as an office or studio. The large living room has the original Craftsman inspired bookshelves & a fireplace, along w/bay window seating. In the dining room is the twin fireplace. There are original wood floors in both. The bedrooms are sized well & a split plan. The hall bath offers a walk-in shower, w/a unique farm door; and the owner's bath, en suite, has an original 1910 clawfoot tub w/ custom plumbing fixtures. The big kitchen is updated w/ beautiful wood cabinets, black walnut countertops, a rolling island & stainless steel appliances.There is a gas stove & a gorgeous hand-hammered copper sink w/ touchless faucet, & a copper range hood. French doors lead to a screened porch, & the back door leads a large laundry/mud room then to another big deck & the beautiful back yard. The firepit is the perfect spot for toasting marshmallows or sharing stories. The land is fully fenced & in addition to the house, offers a shed with electricity & countertops. There's also a bomb shelter - and not everyone has one of those! It could be used as a wine or root cellar, or even as shelter from a storm. The heavy lifting is done here as well; the updates are not just cosmetic. In 2017 the roof was replaced; new electric and plumbing was installed as well as a new electrical panel; the electric wires were moved underground; a new septic tank was installed, and a new security system put in. Asbestos was removed in 2016/2017. There's a brand new HVAC system this year, both inside and out. This is a unique and beautiful home on a gorgeous half acre in the nation's oldest city; a rare piece indeed.
