Troemel's Cottage

This charming circa 1888 Old Florida Style Cottage, once owned by a well known local artist Jean Troemel, sits on a corner lot between Saint George St. & Charlotte St. in the heart of Downtown St. Augustine with direct views of Lake Maria Sanchez and the Marsh.

The adjacent formal dining room, with a mural painted by the former artist, provides a great way to savor your meals. Your meals can be prepared in the kitchen which hosts the essentials you need to cook your meals.

The living room is centered within the home for you and your guests to relax while watching TV, or catching up on a good book by the fireplace mantle.

  This stay was about as close to perfect as it gets. The house was reasonably priced, perfectly located and large enough to accomodate two families (8 people). The house is older (very cool) but modern and up to date on the inside. Plenty of space in the kitchen and dining room to prepare and serve meals for the family. I really enjoyed being walking distance from the St.Aug historic district and waterfront. I also enjoyed being right next to a salt marsh that was teaming with wildlife at low tide! Was able to walk right out the back door and score some great wildlife footage. This may not be the most modern home with all the top of the line amenities. But is has history, character, and space galore! And location, location, location! Oh and I must mention, it has a legendary HVAC system. I like to be cold when I sleep at night and this little cottage delivers. Like I said, nearly a perfect stay for us. I couldn't ask for more!

  This is a lovely cottage with sun-filled rooms and a great screened porch. Very inviting. You can watch all the birds on the and see the horse-drawn carriges in the afternoon. Walk to town. It's great.
