Experience Historic Downstown St. Augustine at The Gobert-Hamilton House
Welcome to The Gobert-Hamilton House, a rare jewel in the heart of downtown's Historic District. Built in 1796 and once owned by Alexander Hamilton II, this remarkable residence is a living chapter in the city's story, offering guests the opportunity not just to stay in Augustine but to truly become part of its history. Steeped in Spanish Colonial roots and recognized in the historical record as one of the first 37 houses built in St Augustine, the home's coquina foundation walls and later architectural additions tell a tale of evolution over more than two centuries. With covered porches, a Juliet balcony, and a private courtyard, every corner reflects timeless character and charm.
This historic home features two bedrooms and one and a half baths, comfortably sleeping up to six guests. A 30-day minimum stay ensures the property is enjoyed respectfully and treated with the care it deserves. Designed for those who value peace, history, and authenticity, not parties, this home provides a rare opportunity to live surrounded by heritage and culture. Inside, the main level offers spacious gathering areas, including a formal dining room, a large living room, and an eat-in kitchen that opens to the courtyard patio. Upstairs, the original family room with a fireplace has been thoughtfully converted into a bedroom with a queen bed, creating additional sleeping space while preserving the home's cozy charm. The primary bedroom connects to the full bath, which is also accessible from shared areas, while the second bedroom provides a private retreat across the hall.
Set back just enough from the street for privacy, yet close enough to feel the vibrant energy of the Old City, the home places you steps away from a waterfront, celebrated landmarks, boutique shops, and fine dining. Whether relaxing on the second-story front porch overlooking Matanzas Bay, gathering in the sheltered courtyard, or strolling to the Castillo de San Marcos, guests will discover a lifestyle rooted in history and enriched by timeless beauty. The Gobert-Hamilton House is not simply a place to stay; it is an experience to treasure.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.
