Periwinkle Perch Historic Cottage Near Downtown

Summary:

Experience Old Florida charm with a stay at this beautifully renovated historic home, built in 1900 and nestled in the heart of St. Augustine’s Lincolnville neighborhood. Just a short walk from downtown’s most iconic attractions like Maria Sanchez Lake and within 15–20 minutes of Castillo de San Marcos, Flagler College, the Bridge of Lions, and an array of restaurants, galleries, and boutiques— this location is perfect for travelers seeking both culture and walkability in America’s oldest city.



The Space:

Inside, Periwinkle Perch blends timeless charm with modern comforts. Step into the formal living room, where a cozy couch, inviting accent chair, and smart TV surround a decorative fireplace that pays tribute to the home’s past. The kitchen is a unique blend of old and new, featuring antique dining chairs reupholstered in fresh fabric, stainless steel appliances, and a thoughtfully curated coffee bar with a Nespresso, Keurig, and drip coffee maker to suit every caffeine craving. Share meals at the dining table for six, or start your day with coffee on the front porch, enjoying the quiet energy of the neighborhood.



Head upstairs to discover a quiet reading nook, ideal for unwinding with a good book, or step out onto the upper deck for evening breezes and a seat under the stars. Out back, the patio is ready for relaxing or grilling, with plenty of space to gather and enjoy the warm Florida weather. Whether you're here for the rich history, vibrant arts scene, or simply to slow down and soak in the coastal charm, this lovingly restored home is your perfect home base in St. Augustine. Cornerstone Cafe is a couple of minutes walk.



This home comfortably sleeps 4 guests between 2 private bedrooms.



Bedroom #1 includes a king size bed.



Bedroom #2 includes 2 twin size beds.



This home also includes a full bathroom with a walk-in shower.



THINGS TO NOTE:

• Washer and dryer on the back deck.

• Driveway parking for 2 vehicles available.

• Also available for long-term stays.



There are many things that make St. Augustine a desirable destination, from its pristine beaches, attractions such as the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum, Alligator Farm Zoological Park, and Anastasia State Park (a prime destination for birdwatching), and a rich history paired with Spanish colonial architecture make it a perfect getaway in any season. Pair that with year-round celebrations and festivals to ideal temperatures, and you’ll wonder why you’ll ever want to stay anywhere else!

    The house has great charm and is beautifully decorated down to even the smallest details (door jams are painted to match house). The bathroom would benefit from a fan but I wonder if that’s not possible due to the age of the house. The kitchen and bathroom have all the items you could need. It is excellent walking distance to town and nice to not have to pay to park in town. The neighborhood felt safe even walking back from town at night. We would stay here again.

    This house has been renovated with fun creative touches and quirky furnishings.The only issue was that I rented it for 2 days, but the entry code was only good for 1 day. A call remedied that.

    The house was very nice. Just what we needed. The weather (out of anyones control) didn't help much but an overall good trip to St. Augustine. The exterior and the yard could use some attention. Some exterior lights didn't work , the seat pads need cleaning. The only other glitch was the microwave. It took some time and trial-and-error to get it to work properly. The decor and style inside the house were unique and nicely done. Proximity to Downtown was a big plus. Overall, it was a good choice for our visit and I would stay there again.

    We ran into issues with check in due to flooding issues in the city. However, the property manager took the time before we even left for the trip to let us know this may be an issue and they had a backup place for us if needed. Communication was amazing. The house was decorated nicely and had everything we needed. The location was superb for walking down town with our two 9 year olds. We would stay here again. If you have mobility issues, then it may not be a great choice due to the only bathroom being on the first floor.
