MID-CENTURY MODERN FIXER-UPPER

A favorite city street on Anastasia Island, Dolphin Drive runs along the Matanzas River which reliably provides an Intracoastal breeze most days. Visited by storms in 2016 and 2017, the neighborhood and residents carry on in their typical resilient fashion. Like others, 84 Dolphin Drive had water intrusion twice and has been professionally remediated and cleared out. Please note this is a complete restoration project and this mid-century modern pool home is offered for sale as is.

With 4 bedrooms (2 masters), 3 baths, living, dining and family rooms, in-ground pool and huge backyard, there is an abundance of comfortable and generous living space for everyone. Evolving with additions over the years as resident families grew, the intelligent floor plan splits the house in private quadrants so everyone has their own personal space with large central common rooms for gathering together. The interior shell is prepped and ready for construction and design decisions to be made.

Out back, the pavered patio surrounds the in-ground pool and spa – a welcome addition as summer rolls back around. The former 25′ x 10′ workshop could be converted to a pool cabana or restored back to a work area. The lot is large and there’s ample room for additional outbuildings and possibly a garage.

Dotted with a mix of architectural styles dating back from the mid-century modern era all the way to designs of today, this Davis Shores neighborhood has retained its casual vibe of laid-back living and the “Boulevard” has become an exciting destination full of local eateries, craft brewery, boutique grocer, clothing shop, bier garden, beer pub, stationary ice cream cart, yoga studios of all disciplines and our beloved Anastasia State Park with sugar sand beach plus the St Augustine Amphitheatre which warrants an internet search so you can see all the music, market and local venues offered.
