A slice of Saint Augustine's culture

The city of Saint Augustine has a lot to offer, and its downtown housing is priced with that in mind. For people looking to experience the city’s museums, shops and restaurants, but at a lower price point, the West Augustine is an alternative. Located across the San Sebastian River, the neighborhood is a short drive — or walk — from the heart of downtown. The city’s culture even spills into West Augustine’s eastern half, where lively bars and restaurants line the waterfront. “If you are looking for that Saint Augustine feeling, that flavor of art and different architecture, it is that kind of neighborhood,” says Greg McCarthy, a broker associate with Endless Summer Realty. “It’s a great way to get in on the ground floor.”

Cottages and Colonial homes near West King Street

The houses around West King Street are the community’s most desirable, McCarthy says. The area carries hints of Saint Augustine’s historic architecture, giving it an old-time feeling. As a result, most of the neighborhood’s restaurants and shops are also found near West King Street, and sidewalks keep the area walkable. That area’s Craftsman cottages and Colonial homes range from $250,000 to $700,000. In the northern part of the neighborhood, which is less commercial, Mediterranean ranch-style homes and traditional homes can range from $220,000 to $600,000. Condos can range from $170,000 to $400,000.
