Looking for a one-of-a-kind property in the heart of St. Augustine? This original 1885 cottage with an accessory dwelling sits on a commercially zoned lot just a 15-minute walk to the Historic District or a quick drive to the beaches. Once used as crew quarters for the Florida East Coast Railway, the home has been thoughtfully restored with hardwood floors, stained-glass transoms, and modern updates. The 2-bedroom, 1-bath main cottage and 1-bedroom, 1-bath accessory dwelling each include their own washer/dryer, refrigerator, and separate A/C systems. A connecting door between the two units offers flexibility for multiple living arrangements.

Currently operated as a five star rated short-term rental, this property is both a piece of history and an income-producing opportunity in a prime location.
