Description

Step into History and Comfort: The Grand Oak - Your Unique St Augustine Downtown Retreat

Discover the enchanting allure of St. Augustine's rich history while indulging in modern comforts at The Grand Oak, a captivating 3-story Queen Anne vacation rental located at 28 Saragossa St just a quarter mile stroll to St George St, the heart of the Historic District. Originally built in 1891 by the Birds Eye View Artist Henry J Ritchie with 50 windows and 25 rooms, this architectural gem has undergone many transformations over the years and a meticulous 1.5-year renovation, resulting in a delightful fusion of old-world charm and contemporary luxury. If you seek an exceptional experience beyond the conventional hotel space, the Grand Oak offers the perfect blend of uniqueness and the conveniences of home. Plus quick access to 2 beaches and additional rentals close by for friends and family. Be sure and check out the links below.

The Grand Oak, aptly named after the majestic oak tree gracing the front, beckons you with its warm ambiance. Originally part of the outdoor porch, the bedroom and bath have been lovingly transformed to offer you a cozy retreat. The Greatroom, formerly the dining room, now provides a spacious and inviting living area that opens to the eat-in Kitchen and vintage paneled office providing workspace for the new “Work from Home” lifestyle. There is even a popup desk in the Bedroom so each can have their own private space. Unlike standard cookie-cutter remodels, our vacation rental is a masterpiece of handmade touches and thoughtful design. From the Shiplap headboard to the Sewing Machine table & desk, to the innovative bicycle TV console, every corner tells a story of creativity and distinction.

The kitchen boasts marble countertops and shaker cabinets with glass doors, adding a touch of elegance while preserving the period's authenticity. The marble bath with an arched alcove tub and surface-mount shower takes you back in time, allowing you to indulge in the luxuries of a bygone era.

We understand the need for modern amenities, and that's why we've equipped The Grand Oak with brand new AC, plumbing, electric, hot water, and appliances. Stay connected and entertained with Smart TVs in both the Greatroom and Bedroom and enjoy seamless Wifi throughout the house.

But it's not just the interiors that make The Grand Oak a unique choice. Our location is a true gem, allowing you to experience the "Best of Both Worlds." Downtown everyone walks and you are within a mere quarter-mile stroll to the heart of Historic Downtown where you'll be amidst the vibrant tourist attractions and an array of delightful dining options.

If you crave the coastal breeze and sandy shores, fret not! We are conveniently located just a few miles away from two distinct Beach communities - Vilano Beach just 3 miles to the north and St. Augustine Beach 5 miles to the south. Both with ample parking and amazing restaurants (I’ll provide you with a curated list). To make your beach outings even more enjoyable, we provide beach chairs, towels, and boogie boards, ensuring you have everything you need for a fun-filled day by the sea.

Forget about the limitations of a traditional hotel space. Come share my home. While we reside in two of the apartments, we warmly invite you to immerse yourself in the history and comfort of The Grand Oak or any of our other meticulously renovated historic homes, showcased in the link below. Your experience in St. Augustine should be nothing short of extraordinary, and we're here to make sure of it.
