Live in your own private country hideaway while being just minutes from town, St. Augustine Historic District, and the beaches! This updated 3-bed, 2-full-bath home with a split floor plan sits on 5+ acres. The driveway leads you past the wooded pond, which provides privacy from the road; the front yard has a quintessential moss-hung oak tree for shade and an Old Florida feel. Out back, the screened patio overlooks the long stretch of property, which includes a large shed and wetland vegetation at the back. Inside, the home features luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, upgraded lighting, granite countertops and a beautifully tiled wood-burning fireplace. The home was fully remodeled just a few years ago. Roof, Windows, HVAC, Hot Water Heater, cabinets, appliances, electrical and plumbing were all included in the renovation. The property is zoned "Open Rural" allowing horses, agricultural and many other uses, making this an increasingly rare lifestyle opportunity. This is a VA Short Sale subject to lienholder approval.
