A historic house
in the oldest city in America.

A peaceful Lincolnville home with room for the whole crew: four bedrooms, a suite out back, a hot tub under the stars, and the old Spanish town an eight-minute walk away.

Four bedrooms Sleeps eleven Hot tub & firepit 8-minute walk downtown

The city's own heat,
and its winter visitors.

We're named for two things St. Augustine can truthfully call its own. The datil pepper (sweet, then slow-burning) grows almost nowhere on earth but here. And every winter, from December into March, North Atlantic right whales swim south to calve in the warm water just off this coast. One is the city's heat; the other, its most patient guest.

It felt right for a house like this one: a historic home on a quiet Lincolnville street, with a backyard built for long evenings. Watch a movie from the hot tub under the stars, then wind down by the firepit. A separate mother-in-law suite out back lets a big family or a group of friends spread out and still share the same yard.

Wake to coffee on the patio. Walk eight minutes to the old town for breakfast. Come back to the ceiling fans turning and the oaks overhead.

The oldest city in America, an eight-minute walk away.

Founded in 1565, St. Augustine pairs 450 years of cobblestone history with wide Atlantic beaches a short drive over the bridge. From Lincolnville, here's where we'd start.

The oldest masonry fort in the continental U.S. has guarded Matanzas Bay since 1695. Catch a weekend cannon-firing, then wander the bayfront as the sailboats drift in.
