Description

This beautiful River Front condominium is mesmerizing in its water views, elegant finishes and minimalist styling. The great room stretches out over 24' over white tile, chair rail and double crown molding to the plantation shuttered windows and French doors opening to the back porch, overlooking the ever-changing scenery of the San Sebastian River. From the changing tides and the fascinating wildlife that varies from mullet jumping, Great Blue Herons nesting and feeding along the river front, to the dolphin chasing little schools of fish, to the family of otters and the Roseate Spoonbills, this is as though you have a state park in your back yard! Lift up thine eyes to see the Great Cross, the largest cross in the world, built of copper, it shines all day and then lights up at night further inspiring all who visit here. This first floor consists of a fabulous kitchen with tip top appliances from Samsung and Bosch in shining stainless against the white Carrera marble countertops and backsplash. Lots of sparkling white cabinets built in and accented by classic dark metal handles, knobs and sconces. Plantation shutters throughout the home provide the light and privacy you crave. The laundry and guest bath are handy to the kitchen as is the utility closet with lots of room for storage, as well as the 2024 water heater and the electric panel. The elegant stairwell wraps around a bench that doubles for storage. French doors open wide to the river front porch with another storage closet - or, it could be your patio bar! The options are endless. Upstairs find the exquisite engineered hardwood stretching through this generous bedroom area including two guest rooms generously sized with plantation shutters. Then a guest bath with tub/shower and a linen closet. The AC closet houses the 2017 Trane HVAC with a new iWave air purifier installed in 2024. The Master bedroom has a gorgeous view of the river through impact resistant windows and also two walk-in closets with pocket doors and super-smart shelving that eliminates the need for bureaus or chests in the bedroom itself. The master bathroom suite is lovely with the twin sinks, separate loo and a walk-in shower - tiled from floor to ceiling on three sides and clear glass shower door. The tasteful white cabinetry is accented by the classic dark metal scones, mirrors and drawer pulls. Vista Cove is beautifully laid out across 67 acres and 1/2 mile of river front. There is a clubhouse just redone and perfect for parties, a big community pool, a small hot spa, cabana restrooms and covered and open patios. There's a card room for music, art, card games, meetings, a beautiful atrium entry, surrounded by the library and management office. Over on the west side of the community, the gym is very complete, plus has a heated pool and a comfy cabana. Just south of this is the RV and Boat lot, free to the residents of Vista Cove - a wonderful amenity! There are numerous ponds, lakes and marshes throughout the campus - wildlife galore. Nature paths and boardwalks, plus a really beautiful pier on the San Sebastian River for fishing and viewing The Great Cross, the St. Augustine skyline. What a view! Also, just a stone's throw to the north, there's Tom Pomar Park with a dog park, and lots of sports fields.
