About owner
Oviedo House is not the typical 'Vacation Rental'. This is the house that a large family grew up in and we want to keep it in the family. The picture was taken a couple of years ago and has all 7 children with our mother. We have moved all over the country (Seattle, California, Kansas, and Florida - but not St. Augustine) and still come home to St. Augustine to spend time. Now our kids, who have kids of their own, also come and enjoy all the things to do in St. Augustine. Mostly we just love to come home. The house is filled with so many memories.

Additional Property Information
Why Kitty Pursley chose Downtown Historic District:
Oviedo House is our family home and not the typical 'vacation rental' bought as an investment. As we moved on with our lives we wanted to keep the house in the family and left the house with most of the items we grew up with. It has a real 'home' feeling when you walk in. Our picture wall in the hall way has many generations and you can get a sense of the closeness our family has for each other and Oviedo House.
What makes this House unique:
We strive to make our guests stay as comfortable as we can. If there are any specifics that you would like, we try and make it happen...Special things for birthdays, weddings, etc. With the addition of the 'Dakota Suite' & 'West Wing', the house is big enough to have 18 people comfortably enjoy the house or can be split up for from 4 in each Suite and up to 10 in the main house. Even though Oviedo House is a large home, it is even very comfortable for just 2 people. We have everything you need to keep working or in touch with everyone. The house has an up-to-date computer, fax, copier, printer, and is equipped for wireless with high speed cable. It is close to the historic district and one can walk most anywhere they want and it is a very safe neighborhood.
Come enjoy our house.

Wonderful location near downtown. Well furnished with everything one could need.
Was in town for a wedding and this house is perfect for a large family or reunion type gathering.

The house was fantastic!! Very nicely decorated and great home vibe.
The house was just like the pictures. We asked to have access to the kids bikes and child tandem. My grandchildren really enjoyed riding around the neighborhood. The new look to the back yard was great, not only the grass, but the water flowing from the vases was very relaxing.
We had a great time and so enjoyed the accessibility of downtown from the house. We did walk there several times. I would recommend this home to anyone with a large family, as it allows for many age groups and is fully stocked with linens, kitchen area, and access to many great things to do in the area.
Thanks for a wonderful vacation.

Fantastic spring break with friends
We had a fantastic time with 3 other families in the Oviedo house over spring break! With 8 adults and 8 children we always felt comfortable in this spacious home. The home was by far the most well stocked vacation home we've ever stayed in. The owners have thought out every detail in order to make sure your stay is comfortable.
The Oviedo home is conveniently located near the historic downtown. Our children enjoyed being able to hop on the bikes and cruise the streets. We rode to the Castillo de San Marcos, Flagler College, the San Sebastian Winery, the distillery, and the historic downtown. The areas were also close enough to walk to.
The Oviedo house offered multiple sitting areas in and out of the house. I really enjoyed being able to sit out front in the rocking chairs sipping coffee in the morning or wine in the evening, as the kids rode bikes out front.
St. Augustine is a perfect blend of history and fun at the beach. We had a great time making memories with friends at the Oviedo house.
Thank you!

House was more than expected by far.
This house was more than I or any of my other 7 golfers could have expected. Besides the multitude of sleeping options, the house was fully equipped with anything that you would need including coffee for the coffee maker, spices, plenty of cups & dishes, pots & pans, laundry detergent, bath towels, extra pillows etc. There are 2 porches with chairs suitable for just sitting, sipping drinks and watching students going and coming back from classes at the nearby college. Walk 2 blocks from the house and you find yourself in the bustling town square just filled with tourists & residents alike enjoying the many shops, restaurants and historical sites of St. Augustine. Enjoy being part of a tour of the area or ride in a horse drawn carriage for a leisurely ride in this area. Or just listen to the music being played by independent musicians looking for tips. If it wasn't for a blizzard up north tonight that forced us to leave town early we would still be down enjoying this oldest city in America. Certainly the house added greatly to the charm of this area and is even on a cobblestone street. And the house owner is a very accommodating owner who responded to a specific need of ours without any concern of the added cost to her. She only wanted to please us as much as she could. Hoping to get back her one day to finish what that dumb storm forced us to cut short.

The house is conveniently located a few blocks from downtown St. Augustine.; yet, Its located in a quiet and serene neighborhood. The house was the best stocked home i have evvveerr rented! the kitchen was equipped with every utensil and pot needed for us to prepare our Thanksgiving meal. The home is clean and spacious. The large porches are well appointed with large comfortable chairs and rockers which are comfortable and relaxing! There is something for everyone: books, games, bikes....this home is AMAZING and is definitely on our repeat rental list!!

Great stay post-hurricane!
We had a truly incredible stay with Kitty during the week of our wedding. They suffered some damage from the hurricane but by the time we arrived, you wouldn't have known it. They worked tirelessly and there was no sign of the hurricane in sight. We also had a lovely rehearsal dinner in the backyard which was perfect. Kitty and Angela were always accessible if we had questions. Would definitely recommend to anyone with a large group!

Our stay at the ' Oviedo House ' exceeded our expectations. A lovely place for our family of eight to gather. The home is convenient to Historic St. Augustine, Anastasia State Park, the Lighthouse, shopping, and dinning. We began our days with breakfast in a well equipped kitchen, followed by touring the area and returning to a relaxing and comfortable home. I would highly recommend ' Oviedo House ' for a vacation rental.

Wonderful!
We had a wonderful stay at the Oveido House for a family member's wedding. We had 3 families who used the main house, Dakota Suite, and the carriage house. It was the perfect setup for our families. My family stayed in the carriage house. It was the best stocked VRBO that I have ever stayed in. Angela was so attentive to all of our needs. I would highly recommend this place to a large group!

Wonderful family reunion!!
We had 19 family members from Tampa, Indiana, Colorado, California and Hawaii gather for a family reunion at the Oviedo House. The family was absolutely thrilled with the house and the accommodations!!! We ranged in age from six months to 70 and it was a perfect for all. We rented the main house, the West Wing and Dakota Suites and the Carriage apartment. Every space was comfortable and the best equipped rental we have ever experienced. Our location was perfect and in spite of the heat, the family availed themselves of much of what beautiful St Augustine has to offer. The only time we used cars was to see sunrise at the beach and grocery. We would love to return!!

5th Wine Makers Trip
We travel with several other couples each year to different areas. One in our group is in a motorized wheelchair and it is difficult for us to find a house that is accessible. This house worked great. They even had a ramp for us to use and grab bars in the master bathroom. This is the best equipped rental we have ever done, including a crock pot. Also in a quiet neighborhood but not too far from the historic area. Even close enough for motorized scooters/wheelchairs to get to St. George street. Enjoyed the San Sebastian winery with live music on the top floor over the weekend, also within walking distance.
