506 Bailey Street

Turnkey downtown living in the heart of historic St. Marys - one of Bailey Street's beloved 1950s brick mill houses, offered fully furnished and ready to enjoy from day one, right down to the tools in the shed. Lock it, leave it, and live the coastal Georgia lifestyle with none of the setup. A quick golf-cart ride to the St. Marys waterfront, with easy access to downtown shops, restaurants, the Cumberland Island ferry, and the submarine museum - the festivals, the riverfront, and the small-town charm that make this one of Georgia's oldest and most walkable towns. Jacksonville International Airport is just about 35 minutes away, making travel and guests effortless. Inside, the home blends authentic 1950s character with thoughtful modern updates. Original heart pine floors run throughout, complemented by a covered front porch and a side-entry carport with direct kitchen access. The kitchen brings a fresh, modern touch with white cabinetry and a striking zebra-wood solid-surface eat-in counter, while the primary bedroom features a custom-designed closet with built-in dresser drawers and shelving behind large sliding mirrored doors. Out back, a 1,028-square-foot screened lanai nearly doubles the home's living space - fully furnished and ready to relax, dine, and entertain year-round, bug-free. It features a hot tub, a private outdoor shower set behind a fenced partition, a second refrigerator, and a propane grill, all included. The large yard is designed for low-maintenance living, with sustainable low-water landscaping, minimal grass to mow, a fire pit, storage sheds, and room for an RV, boat, and trailer. Major systems are done: a new metal roof with matching carport (2021), a new HVAC system (2023), and fresh interior paint (2023) mean comfort and peace of mind from the start. A rare opportunity to own a classic downtown cottage - authentic charm, modern updates, and turnkey coastal living.
