117 Hickory Hill Dr

Welcome to 117 Hickory Hill Dr, a stunning Mediterranean retreat tucked inside the gates of Palencia in St. Augustine. This home is anything but ordinary. With 23-foot ceilings in the great room, a dramatic 20-foot cast stone fireplace, and triple retractable sliders that open completely to the outdoors, every inch of this space is built to impress. The kitchen? Fully remodeled and ready for serious cooking—or serious entertaining. Gorgeous marble countertops, a massive island with prep sink, double ovens, a gas range with a custom hood, and a walk-in pantry. And yes, there’s even a built-in wine cellar. Outside you’ll find your own private paradise: a lush, landscaped backyard with a screened pool, spa, waterfall, double-sided fireplace, and a full Florida kitchen. It’s peaceful, it’s private, and it’s perfect. The first-floor primary suite is oversized and indulgent, with direct views of the pool, a cozy sitting area, built-in custom closets, a wet bar, and a spa bath with a huge Jacuzzi tub. There’s another bedroom suite and a private office downstairs with beautiful bamboo floors—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, you’ll find three more spacious bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, plus a wet bar, built-in cabinetry, and not one but two large verandas overlooking the outdoor retreat below. All of this is tucked into one of the most desirable areas in Northeast Florida... Palencia... just minutes from the intracoastal, top-rated schools, and historic downtown St. Augustine. Palencia feels like a resort, offering a private 18-hole Arthur Hills championship golf course with a 33,000-square-foot clubhouse, perfect for golf enthusiasts and social gatherings for Palencia club members. For Palencia residents, the CDD fees include 10 clay tennis courts, three swimming pools (including a lap pool, family splash pool, and a waterslide pool), a full fitness center, aerobics studios, athletic fields, playgrounds, and over 8 miles of nature trails with scenic boardwalks through the marshes. At the heart of it all is the Village Center, where you'll find shops, restaurants, essential services, and lively community events like Food Truck Fridays. 117 Hickory Hill isn’t just a home... it’s a lifestyle. A rare blend of privacy, luxury, and space in one of Florida’s most sought-after communities.
