Premier Properties Realty Group is the exclusive real estate agent for this project. Each of the sales associates who are staffing the sales center of Antigua of St. Augustine have been trained about the rich history of this unique paradise. “Our staff enjoyed learning about the colorful history of this most sought after property,” said Frank O’Rourke of Premier Properties Realty Group. “It’s a natural addition to the incredible ambiance of living on this most tranquil and beautiful island.” St. Augustine and Anastasia Island have been inhabited for over 6,000 years with the Timucuan Indians as the first settlers. Juan Ponce de Leon came aboard his ship, “Santiago”, in 1513 searching for the Fountain of Youth. He called the area ‘Pascua de Florida’ – feast of flowers. After repeated expeditions and the French threatening in Jacksonville, Spain’s King Phillip named Don Pedro Menendez de Aviles as governor of Florida. He arrived in 1556 aboard “La Perla” (the Pearl) and named the area St. Augustine. Jesse Fish was one of the earliest owners of the property that is now Antigua. An extremely successful merchant and British subject, Mr. Fish survived the Spanish, English and second Spanish occupations while becoming a real estate agent for the landowners during the various changes in colonial rule. He developed a plantation called “El Verge” (the garden) that was to become one of the first successful commercial orange groves in Florida. Carrying on this tradition, the Villas of Antigua at St. Augustine will have names that tie it to the unique history of the region. The waterfront Perla River Villas will have 3 bedroom/3.5 bathroom floor plans. Santiago Villas are town homes also with waterfront views. Las Brisas Villas will capture the gentle breezes from the nearby Matanzas River and the Lighthouse Villas will have views of the historic St. Augustine lighthouse. There will also be 34 waterfront home sites. “We have been very careful to create a community that is worthy of this special and unique island haven,” said Seth Frohlich of Hudson Capital. “We believe that residents of Antigua at St. Augustine will truly discover a whole new world of waterfront living.” Antigua of St. Augustine also includes a commercial corridor with its Executive Office Suites. Conveniently located on State Road 312 near the hub of St. Augustine’s business and medical community, these office condominiums will be the premier business address in the area. For a detailed view of Antigua of St. Augustine, visit the sales center that is open Monday through Saturday from 10AM to 6PM and Sunday from noon to 5PM. Stop by today, before this chance to discover a whole new world and the last waterfront villa community on Anastasia Island passes by. For information, log on to www.theantigua.com.
