18 ESTEY ST St Augustine, FL 32084

Clad in shades of soft yellow with a Caribbean blue front door, this sweet city cottage boasts a serious wraparound porch. Start the day here with morning coffee as the sun rises straight ahead and wind it down with cocktails when day is done. Measuring 40' x 7' with a 12' x 7' ell, think of it as an outdoor living and dining room to be used almost all year round. Don't let the traditional façade fool you as the vintage exterior gives way to a decidedly modern floor plan. Living, dining and kitchen span the front of the house. Natural light streams in through an abundance of windows looking out to the porch. Waiting for cool evenings, the fireplace adds nice architectural detail all the time. Thanks to the open plan it's easy to stay connected during daily meal prep and when friends come by. Stepped up bar provides extra seating and keeps your dishes out of view. Earth tone granite counters look sharp against rich dark wood cabinets and the smart design keeps everything within easy reach. 1/2 bath and laundry closet just off the kitchen are by the back door which takes you to the fenced yard. 1st floor bathroom is tucked between primary bedroom and flex room which has often been used as part of the overall owner's suite when a 4th bedroom is not needed. Bathroom has an extended counter with 2 sinks and lots of storage plus tub/shower. At the top of the stairs there's a perfect spot for a micro-office under the windows. 2 large guest room each have a vanity in the bedroom and share the hall bath. With enough yard to flex your green thumb, set up a grill and garden seating this is easy city living. 1 block east lands you on Magnolia Ave (arguably the most beautiful street you've seen) where you can grab some BBQ at the Fountain of Youth (give it a try!) and the best coffee and lemonade at the Fountain of Juice across the street. From there it's a short walk along San Marco Ave full of great places to discover or a short ride to the beach. Nice!
