Discover the pinnacle of coastal sophistication at Safe Haven, a riverfront estate poised on the southern shores of Anastasia Island. A mediterranean style home masterfully designed for indoor-outdoor living, this gated sanctuary features luxe interiors and large outdoor spaces with breathtaking views over the Matanzas River. From state-of-the-art boat lifts to the meticulously curated interior suites, Safe Haven offers a peerless retreat where the river meets the Atlantic horizon.
The centerpiece of this retreat is an expansive, screened-in patio designed for effortless outdoor living, featuring a heated pool, full outdoor kitchen, and generous dining space perfect for al fresco meals. Beyond the screen, the beautifully landscaped yard offers an inviting fire pit area, ideal for relaxing under the stars. For fishing and boating enthusiasts, the private deep-water dock, equipped with dual lifts, will be the highlight of Safe Haven. Experience the thrill of night fishing from the comfort of your private pier, featuring specialized "fish attractor" underwater illumination to create a vibrant nocturnal habitat. Between catches, the dock serves as a spectacular vantage point for observing dolphins and other local marine life. Take a short walk across the street to a public access point to enjoy the sun or catch a wave on expansive Crescent beach. Drive-on access is just a few minutes away, as well as beautiful Matanzas Inlet and Fort Matanzas Park.
The grand scale of this Mediterranean-style residence is immediately apparent, with soaring, majestic ceilings and sophisticated interior design that exudes refined elegance throughout. Every corner of the home showcases elevated craftsmanship, from the intricate custom woodwork to the grand, sweeping staircase accented by artisan wrought iron. A gourmet kitchen and formal dining room provide a backdrop for high-end entertaining, while the spacious living room features comfortable seating, a gas fireplace, and is anchored by towering windows that capture breathtaking views of the river. The interior flows seamlessly into a dedicated billiard room with a custom bar and a sitting area overlooking the pool, all complemented by a curated collection of refined art that unites the luxurious aesthetic.
The grand staircase leads to three suite bedrooms, two with access to the river facing deck, the ideal place to take in the sunsets, and one with an ocean facing balcony, ideal for catching salty breezes with an evening glass of wine. For guests desiring an extra layer of seclusion, the Seabreeze suite is accessed from a separate staircase and offers two additional bedrooms, a second living room, dining for four, and a kitchenette, perfect for multi-generational families.
Venture out from your haven and take in a little history, as all of the sights and activities of historic St. Augustine are located within a 20-minute drive. Just a few minutes away, enjoy fishing or swimming in the beautiful Matanzas Inlet, take a free water taxi ride to the Matanzas Fort on the intracoastal, or spend a day exploring Marineland and Washington Oaks Gardens State Park, one of Florida's hidden treasures of history and nature!
