11 Atlantic Ave St Augustine, FL 32084

Listing details for 11 Atlantic Ave, St Augustine, FL 32084 : Don't be fooled by the 1959 construction date or by the size as you drive by - it's a 1,201SF contemporary house renovated inside and out in 2006, retaining only the original oak floors. Hardiboard siding, insulated windows, updated kitchen (and it's big!), updated bathrooms and a walled patio with outdoor shower and 2-person spa - this is a great place to live if less is more in your world. You can't see it from the street but there's a 532SF garage with full bath and workshop space in back. A circular drive makes life easy for guests and believe me, they will come when they find out you live in this favorite North City neighborhood! Check out the ''dolphin'' on the front steps and then come inside and see the rest. The living room accommodates a sectional and media center with room for a comfy chair or two and you can look out the big window and watch the colorful cardinals dart from tree to tree. A frosted glass wall (removable) defines the dining alcove which is open to the generous kitchen for easy access. A wall of windows overlooking the patio brings diffused light into the work area and there are more cabinets and counterspace than you can imagine. Most of the year you'll be spending quality time outside relaxing in the spa, rinsing off after a bike ride or a day at the beach and grilling dinner. En-suite, the master is on the east side of the house with a small built-in desk, full bath and two closets. The smaller guest rooms share the hall bath and one opens to the patio. The big bonus is the huge double garage with laundry area, full bath and cabinetry for storage. Use it for cars, bikes, boards, kayaks, exercise, studio - it can handle everything plus a car or two. When the tide is high you can put a kayak in at the east end of Atlantic Avenue and explore the neighborhood from the water side. Or bike up to DOS, the neighborhood coffee and wine bar and listen to some of your talented neighbors play some cool jazz. What's not to like about this picture?
