Villa 1898 “Ghost” Luxe Home- Hidden Gem in the heart of the “Oldest City”

Villa 1898 also nicknamed "Ghost” is a gorgeous newly renovated home located in one of the very best locations within the historic downtown district of St. Augustine. Its location on "Saint Andrews Court" is a hidden gem/hideaway, still a well kept secret, in the heart of downtown within the historic oldest city gates… impeccably kept, private, yet in the heart and walking distance to all that the oldest city has to offer.

The 1898 Villa “Ghost” has the original architectural details, quality and classic workmanship from the period in which it was built. No expense was spared in renovating the interior which boasts a modern yet timeless fashion, even the art work and furnishings were selected with that early 1900s era in mind."

Villa 1898 “Ghost” is definitely catered to the discerning guest and is enhanced by owner’s attention to detail when equipping the home. You will notice subtleties such as noise makers and dimmable night lights throughout, high end furnishings, outdoor floor fans to make outdoor seating more enjoyable, natural essential oils have been used for mosquito repellant outdoors, umbrellas available for guests who love walking in the rain as much as the owner does, landscaping is meticulous… owner keeps the paint consistently retouched, and even a nite light exterior installation to add to the charm in the evenings… this home is a secret treasure for guests to enjoy!

The Owner has another property on the same street nicknamed “Pumpkin”… please reach out to the owner if you are interested in booking both homes which are essentially right next to each other.

We had an amazing stay at the Villa 1898. It was beautifully decorated clean and so accommodating. Not to mention conveniently located to everything. We backed my Yukon in their driveway without a problem! It was tight but definitely doable. We never drove until we checked out. We were able to walk everywhere and do everything on foot. I highly recommend this stay for anybody looking to explore St. Augustine. It’s right in the heart of all the fun things!
