5042 Atlantic

At 5042 Atlantic View, the ocean isn't just something you see in the distance. You hear it, smell it, and feel it throughout the day. Mornings start with sunrise over the Atlantic, afternoons come with a cool ocean breeze, and one of the quietest parts of the beach is just steps away. With more than 4,500 square feet of living space, the home has the size and layout to comfortably accommodate a large family, multiple generations under one roof, or guests coming and going throughout the year. The ground level includes three guest bedrooms, two full baths, a secondary kitchen, and a massive 22' x 20' hobby room lined with cabinetry. Upstairs, the ocean takes center stage. A large living area faces the Atlantic, while the main kitchen, anchored by an oversized island, creates a natural place for everyone to gather. Having full kitchens on both levels makes the floor plan especially well suited for multigenerational living, extended family stays, or a luxury vacation rental where separate living spaces can make a meaningful difference. The primary suite is positioned to take full advantage of the setting, with direct ocean views, a large walk-in closet, and a spacious bath. An oversized office offers additional room for working remotely, watching movies, or simply creating another private space away from the main living areas. Multiple covered porches and decks run throughout the home, each offering a slightly different perspective of the property. Some look across the dunes toward the ocean, while others connect back toward the pool and courtyard. At the front of the property is a private courtyard pool surrounded by mature palms. It gives you two distinct outdoor experiences: mornings and evenings overlooking the Atlantic, and afternoons around a sheltered pool that feels surprisingly private for an oceanfront property. The home has several recent improvements, including a standing-seam metal roof installed in 2025 and recently replaced HVAC systems. What sets 5042 Atlantic View apart is how much it offers under one roof. More than 4,500 square feet, five bedrooms, multiple kitchens, separate living areas, a private pool, and direct oceanfront surroundings give the home tremendous versatility. It can comfortably accommodate multiple families, provide room for guests to have their own space, or offer the type of layout and amenities that translate well to a high-end vacation rental. And while restaurants, shopping, historic downtown St. Augustine, and the rest of Anastasia Island are only minutes away, the beach here feels noticeably removed from the busier sections farther north and south. Locals have long appreciated this part of the coastline for exactly that reason. Come experience it for yourself.
