157 MARINE ST #208 St Augustine, FL 32084

Living is easy at the Views at Bay Pointe. With a front row seat on the Intracoastal Waterway, tucked away on the south end of downtown, this intimate gated complex of 59 condos enjoys the best of both worlds in an idyllic setting. #208 lives on the 2nd floor of the 3-story waterfront building and you can take the stairs or the elevator to your front door. Swing open the door and the view draws you in holding your gaze. Tiled floors stretch out in front of you as you first approach the kitchen. A nook under the window has a built-in desk for a micro office along with additional cabinets and pantry cupboards. Galley-style, there is abundant storage and counter space for whomever is responsible for the memorable meals you'll enjoy on the porch. A melange of earth tones define the granite counters and the stepped up bar keeps your dishes out of sight of the living and dining room. Oversized sliders fill up the east wall providing an unbroken vista of the sparkling water with our lighthouse presiding from across the river. Gathering room is generous with a couple of seating choices leaving room for a dining table should the weather be inclement. The covered porch will be a favorite spot most of the year so bring binoculars for water bird watching! En-suite, the large primary bedroom overlooks the ICW and has a cozy alcove with 3 windows for lovely natural light. Updated bathroom has big shower, double vanities plus two healthy closets outfitted with custom storage systems - no sharing! 2nd bedroom is off the foyer and is adjacent to hall bath and laundry closet. A Murphy bed with cabinets and matching bookshelves were designed for the space so you can use it for your own needs when guests are not in residence. It's a quick stroll to the community pool where you get your laps in along with a bit of Vitamin D as you air dry. Get your walking shoes and head north along historic Marine St to the bay front and into the heart of town - all of 6 delightful blocks. Welcome...
