Fall in love with this roomy condo with a beautiful view of the pond through this much-coveted extended patio. This large pond is alive with ducks, turtles, great birdwatching, sometimes a visit from the otters, and a fountain. The master bedroom looks across the patio to the pond - beautiful southern views from your bed for your morning coffee and the newspaper. The master ensuite bedroom is adjacent to the patio with a large closet and bath on the south side - a deep soaking tub and shower combo. Your delightful home stretches around you with a nice open plan and a large living - dining space. The kitchen is compact and efficient and has a view for the cook from the sink through the French doors out to the pond. Current and newer systems throughout, clear windows, fresh paint, nice LVP. So fresh and lovely, just waiting for you to move right in. The rooms are generous and oh, that patio on the pond! ! Currently set up as coffee or cocktail bar, the area can be converted to an outdoor dining area, or even glassed-in with sliding doors to make it a four-season room. There is a large walk-in utility closet to stow your gear or set up a butler s pantry. Vista Cove was designed and built to allow each family privacy on their back patio - there are no close-by buildings that allow a view into your windows, and walking behind the buildings is just not done . Let the love light shine all year. This split plan allows separation from the kids or guests by the family areas and the foyer. There is a handy laundry closet, and a utility closet near the front door. The guest 'wing' has two nice bedrooms and a full bath with tub/shower combo. These bedrooms face north, and the second bedroom is shaded by the entry aisle. The third bedroom looks across the tree-filled front gardens. Vista Cove is beautifully laid out across 67 acres and 1/2 mile of river front. There is a clubhouse just redone and perfect for parties, a big community pool, a small hot spa, cabana restrooms and covered and open patios. There s a card room for music, art, card games, meetings, a beautiful atrium entry, surrounded by the library and management office. Over on the west side of the community, the gym is very complete, plus has a heated pool and a comfy cabana. Just south of this is the RV and Boat lot, free to the residents of Vista Cove - a wonderful amenity! There are numerous ponds, lakes and marshes throughout the campus - wildlife galore. Nature paths and boardwalks, plus a really beautiful pier on the San Sebastian River for fishing and viewing The Great Cross, the St. Augustine skyline. What a view! Also, just a stone s throw to the north, there's Tom Pomar Park with a dog park, and lots of sports fields. Vista Cove is a haven beside our Nation s Oldest City, St. Augustine. Just 30 minutes from Jacksonville where our NE FL corridor is expanding and becoming becoming more wonderful all the time. Our coastline from the Matanzas Inlet near Marineland all the way up to Amelia Island and Fernandina is so beautiful - most of the beaches are protected by state, national, and county parks - providing you and your family with pristine Atlantic Ocean beaches bordered by natural dunes and palmetto forests. Our St Johns County claims 42 miles of beach - much of it is in parklands, some of it is drivable, and at the south end there is the Fort Matanzas National Park - the oldest fort in the nation - 42 miles of beach and the rest is history! We love that! Come over to our lovely Vista Cove, you ll be right in the middle of a wonderful area and your new lifestyle!
