64 Dolphin Drive St Augustine, FL 32080

Enjoy quintessential St. Augustine living and your own slice of paradise in this immaculately upgraded 4bed/2bath mid-century home located on desirable Dolphin Drive in Davis Shores. Originally constructed by and resided in by Henry & Esther Whetstone of St. Augustine’s beloved Whetstone Chocolate Factory, you can easily imagine you’ve stepped back in time while enjoying all of the comforts and conveniences of modern-day living. A beautifully landscaped courtyard provides a private entrance into the home. Upon entering, you’ll find yourself in a classic Florida sunroom with large windows offering a relaxing view into the courtyard. The floor plan flows gently from here into the living room which is accented with exposed Norwegian brick and pleasing warm tones.  The kitchen is outfitted with soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, and like-new matching stainless steel Frigidaire appliances. Enjoy your meals around the table in the adjoining dining area that overlooks the courtyard. Down the hallway, you’ll find a full bathroom and three bedrooms, each with plentiful closet space including overhead storage. The first bedroom shares the same exposed Norwegian brick as the living room. From the third bedroom, an entrance to the second lovingly sculpted courtyard beckons, offering both relaxation and aesthetic delight with plenty of space for enjoying quiet sunny afternoons or hosting evening gatherings. Perhaps the pinnacle of this home is the exquisite master suite addition: an abundantly spacious dwelling with a relaxing sitting area, a cedar-planked walk-in closet and another walk-in closet, and its own dedicated AC Mini Split system. The master bathroom offers plenty of opportunities to luxuriate with a large tub, separate walk-in shower, and double vanities. The master bedroom looks out onto a large, fully-fenced-in backyard in addition to the second courtyard.  Nestled among a variety of elegant riverfront homes in the coveted Davis Shores neighborhood, one can travel by foot or bicycle over the Bridge of Lions to historic downtown St. Augustine or to any number of enticing restaurants along Anastasia Blvd. RS-1 zoning allows for short-term rentals. $30,000 of recent improvements on top of the complete upgrade that was already done when owner purchased in 2019, including new roof. Recent updates include sloped roof over master suite, installation of a French drain system ($7k value!), a SimpliSafe alarm system, ceiling and hallway painting, and landscaping of both courtyards.
