Carriage Way; A Quaint Historic Victorian Vacation Getaway

Carriage Way is a traditional Victorian style building constructed between 1883 and 1885 by Edward and Rosalie Masters. The rooms are named for former owners and individuals who were significant to the history of the home. For many years, the home was very prominent in the city of St Augustine. Then, in the 1940s, the house was converted into apartments. In 1984, the structure was lovingly and extensively restored to its original grandeur, fulfilling a dream of creating Carriage Way.

Accommodations In the heart of the Old City St. Augustine

Just imagine walking down the quaint, narrow streets of the "Oldest City" in the United States. Then, imagine walking up to a beautiful 120 year old Victorian home in the heart of the Historic District. Your eyes capture the soft, warm colors of the home. Then, you see the two verandas. The white wicker chairs and a porch swing call out to you to sit, relax and reflect on your day! As you enter the front door, the friendly atmosphere is evident. You feel the warmth, as if it were to say "Welcome Home."
