184 KIRKSIDE Avenue, Saint Augustine, FL, 32095

There's nothing else like it in Markland and the moment you pull up, you'll know it. This Cornerstone custom built home is pure French Provincial: a steep, multi-pitched roofline, tall arched windows, board-and-batten shutters, & a standing-seam metal portico over the entry. It's the kind of elevation you slow down for. In a community of beautiful homes, this one stands in a class by itself. And it has the setting to match. The home is positioned to take in the entire unobstructed lake, not a sliver, not an angle, the full width of the water & it faces due west. It's the one thing a home can't add later: a true, full, west-facing lakefront that can't be built, bought next door, or ever taken away. Step through the double glass doors & the lake is already yours, framed dead-center through a wall of triple sliders, fitted with electric shades, that runs the width of the great room. The kitchen is built to be used & shown off in equal measure: a professional Wolf gas range, a Frigidaire Professional built-in refrigerator, a big quartz island with a farmhouse sink with seating for 5, & lighted glass-front cabinets. A dedicated beverage station adds a dual-zone wine fridge, a bar sink with its own reverse-osmosis filtration, & a walk-in pantry just beyond. A custom banquette with built-in storage tucks into the breakfast nook, facing the water, & a gas fireplace anchors the family room. The split floor plan is as smart as it is comfortable: the master's suite is privately set apart, oversized, & wakes up to the lake, with a beautifully finished bath with a frameless glass shower with a bench & dual rainfall heads & a long double vanity. On the other side, 2 oversized guest bedrooms share a full bath with dual sinks, while the 3rd oversized guest bedroom enjoys its own private en-suite that doubles as the future pool bath, ideal for guests, in-laws, or a teenager who wants their own space. Every bedroom has a walk-in closet. Up front, a handsome office with wainscoting, a storage window seat, & French doors gives you a real place to work. Out back, the screened lanai is the seat this whole house was built around. Beyond it, a 93-foot homesite runs unbroken to the water's edge, room to design the pool of your dreams, with a bath already in place to serve it. Inside, the finishes hold up to the view: quartz counters throughout, wide-plank luxury vinyl with no carpet anywhere, 8-foot doors with upgraded hardware, soft-close cabinetry, plantation shutters, crown molding, a water softener, a 3-car garage & a laundry room with upper cabinets & a sink. All of it sits behind the gates of Markland, one of Northeast Florida's most sought-after addresses, amenities include a resort-style pool, pickleball & basketball, a fitness center, a playground, & a dog park, all zoned for St. Johns County's top-rated schools. Plenty of homes in Markland look out on the water. Almost none stand apart the way this one does, a true French Provincial original, facing west over a lake that's yours from the moment the door opens.
