Beautiful sunrises and views! Enjoy views of the ocean from our grand decks, or while taking a dip in our sparkling, heated pool. This elegant 5/3 home is the ideal getaway for any group. With a flowing open floor plan throughout, and an expansive great room (perfect for family get togethers), floor to ceiling windows and soaring cathedral ceilings, The Sand Castle is the place to be whether you choose to spend your time inside, or out!
This elegant home is set just one street back from the ocean but sitting up high from the street, your views are magnificent. Whether it is from the second story heated swimming pool, one of the grand decks fronting the home, or from one of the spacious rooms inside, you will be impressed with the views. Outside the ocean breezes caress you while bringing in the fresh air from the sea. So healthy! The shoreline here stretches for miles and miles and you can spend hours waking the beach discovering one treasure after the next as nature rolls up onto the shore.
Morning people will celebrate the beginning of each day with a most incredible sunrise as Mother Nature puts on a show for you. For the yoga enthusiast, mornings on the upper deck are nice and cool and you will enjoy sunrise yoga daily with a show put on just for you! The location is heavenly and you will quickly find that there is no place else that you would rather be.
The bedrooms are spacious and comfortably decorated making a great space to start and end the day. Crisp linens and soft pillows create an ambiance perfect for dreamy slumber. The living areas are open and airy and full of natural light. The huge stained glass in the kitchen is a one of a kind piece created just for this home. The afternoon sun through this window creates a sensational work of art. Tall ceilings and large generously sized rooms make living and playing so enjoyable. All together or everyone in their own space, this home offers it all.
The kitchen is the perfect place to create your masterpiece dish for those evenings that you want to stay in and relax. Well stocked and plenty of room for family and friends to gather and enjoy a glass of wine with the chef.
This home exudes joy and creates memories that will last you a lifetime. Many guests consider this their "home away from home" and return year after year to continue the fun and tradition.
The sound of the ocean waves. Salty breezes and seagulls overhead. Miles of sandy shores laid out before you, scattered with beautiful shells and interesting artifacts (who knows what rolls up on the shores of the nation's oldest city!!) Beautiful architecture and historic landmarks and streets. Gorgeous beaches bordered on one side by the Atlantic Ocean and the other sand dunes and sea oats. A place to kick back and relax or get out and be adventurous with a surfing lesson or paddle board yoga. So many things to see and do. Take a vacation of a lifetime right here in St Augustine Florida. Stay at the Sand Castle. The vacation home you will never forget....for all the best reasons.
