$1,145,000

Waterfront on a protected Davis Shores boat basin, with a private floating dock and direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway. This saltwater pool home comes with a Dolphin Drive address, one of the most desirable streets in Davis Shores, and at $1,145,000 it is one of the most competitively priced waterfront homes with a dock on Anastasia Island. Tucked on a quiet, low-traffic circle, its deep, tree-lined 0.37-acre lot gives real privacy, yet you can walk or bike to the restaurants and shops of Anastasia Blvd, and across the Bridge of Lions to downtown St. Augustine and the historic district. The home also sits on a naturally elevated homesite, higher than much of the surrounding island, which is a meaningful advantage for waterfront property here. The single-story 3-bed, 2-bath split plan opens to a solar-heated pool in a screened enclosure, with a sun shelf and a large, covered patio made for easy indoor-outdoor living. Past the pool, the backyard keeps going....Mature trees give sun and shade, and there is a hidden garden with pergolas, an outdoor kitchen with alfresco dining, and a deck on the boat basin leading to the floating dock. Bring the boat: head out to the Intracoastal in the morning, then walk to dinner on the island at night. Inside, separate living areas and a bonus room give you room for guests, hobbies or a home office. There is a 2-car garage plus a storage shed, and no HOA or CDD fees. The home works as a primary residence, a second home, or a vacation home: City of St. Augustine RS-1 zoning allows registered short-term rentals with a one-stay-per-week limit, so it can earn income when you’re not using it. Homes with a dock in Davis Shores rarely come at this price. This one lets you buy the location and the boating lifestyle now, and make the house your own over time.
