The story
RARE VILANO BEACH OPPORTUNITY — BEAUTIFUL COTTAGE + OVERSIZED HOMESITE JUST MINUTES FROM THE BEACH This is the kind of property that rarely comes available in this sought-after coastal location. Located just approximately 0.2 miles from the beach, this beautiful property offers the best of both worlds: a charming cottage you can enjoy now and an exceptional homesite with tremendous potential for the future. The existing cottage provides an easy opportunity to use the property as a vacation getaway, weekend retreat, investment property, or comfortable coastal home while you take your time deciding whether to build your dream primary residence. The oversized 103' x 125' lot offers plenty of possibilities for a future custom home. With the property’s gentle coastal breezes coming from the nearby Intracoastal Waterway, you can enjoy the setting today while envisioning what could be built tomorrow. Build up and you may be able to capture beautiful Intracoastal views, creating an even more spectacular coastal retreat. The property is connected to county water and has an existing septic system, adding valuable infrastructure for future plans. Surrounded by established homes and attractive new construction, this is an increasingly hard-to-find opportunity in one of St. Augustine’s most desirable coastal corridors. Builders, investors, and buyers looking for a unique coastal property should take notice. Keep the cottage and enjoy it while you plan your future build—or make this your long-term beachside home and create something truly special on this rare homesite. Almost the last lot in this location. Lots of this size and proximity to the beach are rarely available. Come see the possibilities at 184 Surfside Avenue and imagine what you could create here. Your piece of the St. Augustine coastal lifestyle is waiting.
