About this property

Pet Friendly | Updated Forest Ridge Villa | Short Walk to the Beach | Community Pool & Tennis

This beautifully updated 2 bedroom 2 bathroom townhome is the perfect location for your next seaside getaway. Entering through the front door you will immediately notice the gorgeous coastal flooring throughout and neutral color palette complete with warm coastal accents. This Forest Ridge villa has a unique floor plan as it was once a 3 bedroom now converted to a 2 bedroom to allow for a more spacious and open great room!

The spacious great room is furnished with a large cozy sleeper sofa and two accent chairs all centered around an oversized flat screen smart television and electric fireplace. Just off the living area lies the private balcony with a serene wooded view and is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee. The private balcony features a table and two chairs for dining al fresco!

Walking into the fully equipped kitchen you will find updated white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. A dining table sits adjacent to the kitchen and offers seating for 4.

Just down the hall lies the master bedroom complete with a king size bed accented with beautiful blue and white décor, a claw foot dresser, a desk area, and a 32 inch flat screen TV. The en suite bath includes a shower tub combo as well as a stylish navy colored vanity with granite countertops and double sinks.

The neighboring second bedroom features a queen size bed, beachy décor, and a walk in closet. The guest bathroom offers a shower tub combo and is just down the hall.

This relaxing retreat is only a 3 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!

Wonderful Trip

This condo was a wonderful place to stay! It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing trip. The space was well-appointed, and we loved having a full kitchen and extra room to spread out. The location was perfect—close to everything but still quiet and peaceful.

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at this condo. It’s spacious and nice, in a nice condo community that’s the perfect distance to the beach.
