To the best of our knowledge "20 Atlantic" is the largest piece of undivided residential property remaining within the "Ancient City" of Saint Augustine on Florida's idyllic Atlantic Coast. Just a few hundred yards from where Ponce de leon first landed in 1513 and within site of historic Fort Mose, the first free black settlement in America. Property like this is why Henry Flagler fell in love with Florida.

The perfect location for the private estate of your dreams, this is a rare slice of "Old Florida" dotted with majestic live oaks and emperor palms, looking out over a private pond toward wetlands full of wildlife, including manatees and dolphins, all tucked away in a quiet corner of a friendly town that enjoys a mild climate.

Enter via a secluded neighborhood and be transported to a place of natural beauty, peace and quiet, frequented by osprey, heron, stork, ducks and all manner of marsh birds.

Enjoy living in the relaxed, art-rich ambience of Saint Augustine, the historic heart of which is less than two miles away. Slip your kayak in the creek at the end of the road. Put your boat in the water at the nearby boat ramp with direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. Or head to the surf and sugar sand beaches of Vilano, less than two miles away.

Seeking youth and vitality with which to enjoy your domain? Drink from the natural spring located on this land, less than 1,500 paces North of Ponce de Leon's fabled "Fountain of Youth."

Need to commute? Land your jet or seaplane at the municipal airport (SGJ) just a few miles up the road from your estate (SGJ can even handle your 747). Featuring daily non-stop jet service to Boston, Mass. and Columbus, Ohio. Or commute to anywhere from Jacksonville International (JAX) less than an hour away. By road, this property is just 10 minutes from Interstate 95, but if you're heading to Amelia Island, Fernandina, or Daytona (all under 60 miles) consider cruising historic A1A, in your convertible, or on your Harley or Ducati.

Endless Possibilities

Buy the land and the house at a big savings and enjoy the flexibility to make the entire property your domain, living in the existing 5 bedroom home (with pool) or building the brand new luxury home of your dreams, with grounds to match. Alternatively, plat the land to create a small private neighborhood (with significant profit potential).

How about five one-acre luxury mansion sites? Or create a dozen generous lots that fit comfortably into this unique space while leaving plenty of room to breathe the cool sea breezes.

Yet another alternative: Create a village-style micro-development with two dozen high-end, eco-friendly cottage homes. Despite upheavals in the national market, there remains a strong demand for high quality housing relative to supply across all markets in St. Augustine. Why? Because supply is constrained by the limited amount of available land. As the saying goes, "They're not making any more of St. Augustine." And when this parcel is gone, it's gone.

Ideal for 1031 exchange. Or buy it to bank it. Also a good candidate for biodiversity offsets, conservation actions designed to compensate for the unavoidable impact on biodiversity caused by infrastructure projects, to ensure “no net loss,” and, preferably, a net gain of biodiversity.
