Enjoy both ocean AND Intracoastal views, a 5-minute walk to the beach, and the added benefit of being located in Flood Zone ''X''. This well-maintained, single-level home offers 2, 118 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Outside, a beautifully landscaped paver patio with a fire pit provides the perfect place to relax after a day at the beach. The community's south gate is only 500 feet away, providing convenient beach access, while the community pool is just a short walk from the front door, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of a pool without the maintenance. Summer Island is a private, gated community offering a community pool, tennis courts, private dock, and boat launch, all within a 3-minute walk from your front door.

It is arguably the best-priced ocean view home currently available in St. Augustine! While the photos provide a glimpse, it's difficult to capture just how expansive the views are until you're standing there in person.
