Sunny Side Cottage walkable to downtown w/ garden

Morning light filters through the palm fronds as you step onto the porch, the hum of St. Augustine’s historic streets just beyond the garden gate. You pause with a cup of coffee in hand, the soft air scented with salt and greenery, before wandering through the quiet backyard shaded by swaying palms. Every space invites you to slow down and settle into the easy rhythm of coastal life.

Living spaces
Built in 1888, Sunny Side Cottage blends vintage character with everyday comfort. Inside, hardwood floors and a crystal chandelier add warmth to a living area with a leather sectional, reading nook, and TV with Hulu (guests are expected to provide their own credentials). A dedicated workspace and Wi-Fi make it easy to stay connected, while air conditioning, ceiling fans, and heating keep the home comfortable year-round.

Kitchen & dining
The fully equipped kitchen has everything needed for home-style meals, including a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, and hot water kettle. Gather around the dining table for breakfast before exploring the city or linger over dinner after a day spent wandering cobblestone streets.

Sleeping arrangements
With 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, the cottage sleeps 6 guests comfortably. Each bedroom includes soft linens, extra pillows, and storage space. Bathrooms offer a bathtub, hot water, and bathroom essentials for a relaxed stay.

Outdoor living
Step into the private backyard garden, a grassy open space perfect for unwinding beneath the palms. The covered front porch with rocking chairs offers a peaceful spot to enjoy the breeze or an evening drink, while a patio or balcony provides another quiet corner for downtime.

Comfort & convenience
Guests can enjoy self check-in with a keypad, free parking for two cars, and the ease of a washer, dryer, and iron. Safety features include a smoke alarm, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit. Sunny Side Cottage is pet-friendly, welcoming dogs and assistance animals.

Neighborhood
Set just blocks from downtown St. Augustine, the cottage places you within walking distance of restaurants, galleries, and historic landmarks. Whether visiting for a family getaway, extended stay, or quiet retreat, this charming home offers a serene base to experience the city’s timeless appeal.

Great cottage in a great location

We decided to see Nights of Lights the week before Christmas and booked this in July. We have never stayed at a VRBO before, but this was a great experience. St Augustine is fun to walk,so we had a safe neighborhood to walk to and from and leave our car parked. Lovely neighborhood, quiet and the old cottage was just the right size.The back porch and yard,which is fenced,is private with plants and trees. Will go back for sure, even in beach weather because its shady at the house too! There were 3 of us and we did not bring groceries or cook, but if you decide to do that,everything is there! We brought coffee,creamer and sugar for the mornings. Very comfy rooms/beds. Water good and pressure great! Just make sure you like to walk,bring good comfortable footwear! Its was a great 4 day Christmas Season getaway!

Lovely House

We had a wonderful stay at Sunny Side Cottage; it was perfect for four adults and a child. I was initially worried about parking, but we had plenty of room with two mid-sized SUVs. The location is easily accessible, and walking to the historic portion of town was easy.

A Charmer

We absolutely loved our time in Saint Augustine and this pleasant cottage. Our favorite spot was the rockers on the screened in back porch. We sat there at some point every day. This house has great gathering areas, a spacious front room and a big table in the kitchen. It’s an old house so there are necessarily some quirks but the overall charm definitely wins out. Another plus was the proximity to the downtown area. We were able to walk to 80% of our activities. The cleanliness left a little to be desired, but not a dealbreaker. It was surface clean and we took care of the rest. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend you do.

The house was a older home and inside was clean and had all we needed. The outside had a huge oak tree so the leaves were abundant, nothing a good blower couldn’t handle. We had our own parking space in the back alley which was great access to front and back of home was clear, and well lit. Was in walking distance to downtown st. Augustine. We had a great time we donated 3 stemless Wine Glasses since they only had 1, but ample martini and flute glass. Kitchen well equipped.

The property is in need of some minor maintenance and yard work. Overall it was very nice and comfortable. Easy walking distance to the old district which was awesome.

St Augustine Stay

Great older style house with all amenities you need. Close to shopping district, and much larger inside than it looks. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for making our weekend so great.

Great Trip

The house was as expected. It was clean and well stocked! The yard/garden is pretty over grown compared to the picture. We were given a code but not told we would have to enter through the back door. This is not a problem but would be nice if put in the check in instructions. There was alley parking but I have a large SUV and it was difficult to even get a compact car next to it just so you know! It was overall a very nice property!

St Augustine visit

We enjoyed the space and location of property. The house was clean with lots of amenities. Of concern, the yard was not maintained adequately and the air vents were dirty with a brown film that looked like mold. Also, the back door was difficult to close due to the large lock box. Just a few days of maintenance would transform this property making it comparable to the cost. Truly, Leslie
