Cobalt Cottage -- History at your doorstep

Fabulous Cobalt Cottage is located right in the heart of Historic St Augustine. While peacefully residential, you will be delighted to find shops and restaurants just a short stroll away. Downtown St Augustine is a vibrant area full of art galleries, many shops filled with locally made clothing and crafts, and a multitude of restaurants full of unique dishes whose tantalizing scents lure you inside. A pristine and charming home in a most perfect location. Come Visit!

Cobalt Cottage is tastefully remodeled inside and out. While everything is new, the charm of the historic district and the exquisite details in this home will make you believe that you have just stepped back into the 1800's. A most magnificent kitchen with large center island invites the most discerning of chefs and gives the family a fabulous place for friends to gather and enjoy. True hardwood floors. Italian leather recliners and sofa in the living room give a rich and comfortable presence and are wonderfully tempting to curl up and enjoy a lazy day. The Trolley passes in front of Cobalt Cottage and is enchanting to listen to the sounds of St Augustine as they pass by telling the history of our street and town. A stroll into commercial downtown exudes charm with the clip clop of the horses' hooves pulling a buggy. We invite you to discover our Nation's Oldest City in all its charm!

We hold nothing back and want for you to enjoy all of this home in all of its splendor. Welcome.

This home is in a charming neighborhood of historic makeovers, brand new modern homes and homes that have stayed exactly the same for years as they are passed down in the family. You are a very short walk to downtown and St George Street with all the shops and restaurants. Fabulous place to watch the Nights of Lights which is everyone's favorite time of year, mid November until end of January.

This home has 4 spaces for cars to park off street so you can bring a car, however it is totally walkable to everything downtown. Just over the bridge you will find Anastasia Island where you will enjoy our beautiful beaches. Downtown also has horse and buggy rides, red trolly and green trolly which take you to places downtown and also one of them will take you to the island.

While parking spaces downtown may be few and far between, at Cobalt Cottage you will find room to park 4 cars tandem on the side of the house. Also, the proximity to St George Street (please check it out), the marina and everything downtown is all within walking distance of this charming home.
You must be at least 25 years of age in order to make a reservation. The person who makes the reservation must occupy the residence for the duration of the reservation.

A cozy weekend getaway

I couldn’t have imagined a better house for my best friend’s bachelorette weekend! All of us couldn’t stop saying how perfect this house was! Also, the hosts were so hospitable and checked in to see how our stay was and if we needed anything. If anyone is looking for a house that is within walking distance to historic downtown st. augustine, look no further than the Cobalt Cottage!

St Augustine stay

My family was in St Augustine for a family wedding and we needed a house that was wheelchair accessible. The open floor plan, master bedroom downstairs, handicap accessible master shower, and entry ramp in back made this house perfect for our needs. Great location and lovely updated home. We were very comfortable.

Perfect House, Perfect Location

This house was adorable and spotless! The main area is way bigger than the pictures make it look. The bed in the master was a little creaky but the new upgrades more than made up for it. The location was super close to everything in downtown St. Augustine! A great spot for a larger group as it can accommodate quite a few guests and has ample parking.

Cobalt Cottage was wonderful

We stayed here for our annual sibling reunion and it was perfect. The interior has been beautifully remodeled and was squeaky clean when we arrived. It contains all the comforts of home and more. My husband is handicapped and was so pleased with all the grab bars in the bathrooms and the access ramp in back. The location was walking distance to almost everything we wanted to do. We would definitely rent there again.

Beautiful property in historic Lincolnville. Safe neighborhood within easy walking distance of tourist area. Master bedroom and bath on first floor is spacious as well as kitchen and living area.

Flagler College families: Cobalt Cottage is for YOU!

A well-appointed, beautifully decorated, large home three blocks from Flagler College campus hit all the high marks for our family of 10 celebrating our Flagler College senior for her volleyball senior night. Easy to walk to everything; large open spaces made it easy to chill with family between festivities--and THE KITCHEN is AMAZING for cooking large meals. It set the stage for a great family celebration!

Beautifully Appointed Home in a Great Location

We spent three nights at the Cobalt Cottage which provided a comfortable, bright, and beautiful home base for our St. Augustine vacation. The home was perfect - all seemed new and high quality. We loved the huge open kitchen and island, the cozy living room, and the large comfortable first floor bedroom and bath. Communication with the property manager was excellent. The home was super clean on our arrival. If our travels take us back to St. Augustine, we would hope to stay at the Cobalt Cottage again!

Great house, perfect location

We had a wonderful stay at Cobalt Cottage. The house is homey, spacious, very clean & in a quiet neighborhood that’s just a few minute walk to everything. You can tell the owners care about the guest experience & provide plenty of extra linens & supplies. The furniture is all very comfy & high quality (except the king bed in the master is oddly squeaky) and the kitchen has everything needed. The master bedroom is downstairs with French doors opening to the back porch. Then the other three bedrooms are upstairs with one bathroom to share. There’s also a half bath on the main level so there’s plenty of privacy for a large group. The management company was great- very responsive & made the stay easy. Thank you for a great stay!

Great sisters/dad vacay

We just spend 4 nights at Cobalt Cottage. It is absolutely lovely. Beautifully decorated, just as the photos show. Walking distance to downtown. Trolley tour is a must. Also, not sure if the listing says 1/2 bath off kitchen.....but, there is and it was great having 5 girls staying in the house. It was a surprise to me. Check in/out was easy. Communication with management co was easy and they always responded promptly. Would stay there again without question.
