About this property

Pet Friendly | Forest Ridge Townhome | 5-7 Minute Walk to the Beach | Community Pool & Tennis Courts

This charming 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Forest Ridge townhome has everything you could desire in a seaside retreat for a little rest and relaxation. A serene color scheme, coastal embellishments, and comfortable furnishings adorn the entirety of this unique villa.

The main living area boasts an open floor plan where two comfy leather sofas immediately tempt guests to kick their feet up, flip on the TV, and relax after a day of fun in the sun.

Overlooking the great room is a fully stocked updated kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz counter tops, and a California bar top perfect for serving meals! An adjacent high-top dining table seats four and is also part of the great room.

Just off the main living area on the first floor you'll find a wonderful master suite with all handmade wooden furniture, a brand-new king-sized Nectar bed, a flat screen TV, and a private master bathroom with a walk-in shower. The laundry area is also conveniently located in this bathroom.

If staying inside on a beautiful day is not your cup of tea, grab a good read, head out the back sliding glass door, and enjoy the spacious back porch! This spacious private balcony hosts a table seating four with a sun shade umbrella as well as a teak wood 2 seater bench.

Through the quaint entry foyer and up the stairs you'll find two additional bedrooms as well as the second bathroom open to the hallway for use by both bedrooms and offering a shower/tub combo. The first bedroom is host to all handmade wooden furniture, two queen sized Nectar mattresses and a flat screen TV. The third bedroom features one queen sized Nectar mattress and a flat screen TV.

This marvelous vacation getaway is only a 5-7 minute walk from the pristine Amelia Island beach. Only a short walk from the villa is a community pool, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, a picnic and grilling area, and a playground. The scenic paved walk around the Forest Ridge community provides a safe recreational venue and a great place walking pets!

clean, cute, & well located. Loved the trees all around. It had everything we needed. the air struggled to keep the condo cool- especially upstairs. However, it was July & hot. The buildings on the outside need a refresh/update. So much potential.We would definitely stay in this unit again- once it is cooler.

Nice townhome

My husband and I stayed with our married son, his wife and 3 children. They stayed upstairs, and we had a king bed downstairs. It was nice separation and enough room considering they wanted to be at the beach most of the time. My husband and I enjoyed the big pool while they enjoyed the beach. No complaints.

This place was spot on. Very friendly neighborhood. Best place for family. Very clean. It is better to drive to the beach which was only 2 min drive. We did not want to leave. I guess my only coment would be, they are a little too uptight about some things, ive never been to a place that had specific check out instructions and rules, but they prolly have to be that way, which is understandable. These little things i can over look. We definitely will be back. We had a wonderful time. This place felt like home.
