Experience the allure of Henry Flagler's Gilded Age. Upon arrival you will be enamored with the home’s distinctive architecture and historic significance. Enter the Horace Walker House and encounter old world architecture and décor that are in perfect harmony with the luxurious and ultra-modern amenities. The Walker House along with the Casa Monica Hotel and Villa Zorayda, were built by notable architect Franklin Smith and are among the few Moorish Revival buildings in St. Augustine.

Built in 1888, this luxurious home features all high-end amenities and exudes character and charm. Beautiful architectural details and wooden heart pine floors remain original to the home, as well as wonderful large windows that allow an abundance of natural light throughout.
Sit back and relax in the fabulous grand living room which features, antique furnishings, large windows and doors framed in the original wide wooden molding with rounded corner pieces. For your entertainment and relaxation, a baby grand piano and smart TV grace the living room. The living room leads to a spacious dining room furnished with an eighteenth-century reproduction dining room set, consisting of a table, eight chairs and a cupboard. This is where the 19th century morphs into the 21st century. The dining room connects to a brand-new stunning chefs' kitchen with a wall of sliding glass doors spanning the entire length of the kitchen and dining room, which looks out onto an incredible entertainment space in the back yard.
Inspire your inner chef by whipping up a culinary delight in this brand-new fully equipped gourmet kitchen, with a large center island, featuring German cabinetry, quartz counters and backsplash, Miele gas range and convection oven, Miele microwave/convection and Liebherr refrigerator.
Offering a restful night’s sleep, all three luxe bedrooms feature king beds with premium linens, two nightstands, 3-way touch lamps with USB ports as well as smart tv’s and room darkening drapes. All bedrooms have large windows allowing plenty of natural light. Luxury abounds in the upstairs spacious primary suite with a large adjoining dressing room and an incredible brand new hi-end ensuite bathroom with a double sink vanity, an LED mirror, separate lavatory closet, 3 spray body shower, separate claw tub, and a lovely large private balcony with a chaise lounge for two. The second upstairs bedroom suite has a remodeled hi-end ensuite bathroom as well. The third bedroom is conveniently located downstairs on the main level with an adjacent modern bathroom with shower.
End your busy day of sightseeing by relaxing and chilling in your private fenced backyard oasis. Enjoy al fresco dining on the fabulous patio featuring a motorized louvred roof, an expansive summer kitchen with barbeque, sink and frig, a dining table that seats six and a separate cozy sitting area to gather and enjoy a drink. If you’re in the mood for golf, there is a three-hole putting green. For the ultimate relaxation, sit by the Solo smokeless gas fire pit and immerse yourself in its warm glow.
The home was purchased in 2022 and underwent an extensive construction project in which an entire wing was added to the back of the house.

We enjoyed our stay at Walker House. The house was clean and charming. The beds were comfortable. It was exceptional warm weather for Christmas, so we throughly enjoyed the outdoor kitchen and garden. It was a nice experience.
Everything was wonderful! Comfortable stay: very clean house, soft sheets, towels & toilet paper, great location, great HVAC, dishes, pots, pans, coffee maker & coffee provided, washing machine even had preloaded laundry detergent & fabric softener, showers & water pressure are amazing. Great communication when we needed something. I will definitely stay here again.
The property was amazing. The house was so clean. It was close to the historic district. The back yard was private. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
The kitchen was fully equipped. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the bathrooms. The outdoor kitchen and garden with the putting green were the areas we mostly stayed. The home is close to everything you want to visit or places you wish to dine.
This place is amazing. Has historical feel and updated conviences It has everything you need plus more. We stayed a week and didn’t get to use the grill or outdoor imminities So clean and I just can’t say enough good things about this place. We will be back.
This house is beautiful. The property has everything you need for a great retreat. Exceptionally clean, comfortable beds, great bathrooms and the kitchen - WOW! The master bathroom shower is to die for! The backyard was wonderful for relaxing after a long day or just to enjoy a cocktail. The attention to detail for comfort was not overlooked. If you are looking for a property in St. Augustine within minutes of downtown or the beaches, this is a must see.
My group and I spent three nights at the Walker House and could not have been more happy with our stay. The house is within walking distance of many of St. Augustine’s best attractions and restaurants. The house and its amenities were impeccable. The backyard was a particular highlight. The house itself was immaculate and fully stocked to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The check in/out process couldn’t have been easier and the property manager was quick to respond to all questions and requests. I would recommend this property to anyone and cannot wait until my next stay there.
Great stay! The property has very intentional renovations that make staying at a historical property comfortable.
It's very clear it's a renovated historical property with the wood floors and antiques, but the renovations provide the niceties of current technology and comfort.
A special added touch is the bathrooms. They are VERY clean, current, and beautiful... complete with the old- school claw tub in the master to hint at history. Great backyard landscaping with a fountain, putt-putt golf and firepit that I regret we did not get to experience.
We would definitely return!
Amaizing Historic Home with Luxurious Modern Amenities!
We absolutely loved everything about the Walker House. The home's historic significance and charm paired with incredible modern hi-end amenities made for a truly unique experience. The house was beautiful, well appointed, spacious, and so comfortable. Everything was brand new from the gourmet kitchen with Miele appliances to the spa like bathrooms. The home was spotless and had everything that we could possibly want. The backyard was outstanding, and we enjoyed every inch of it, from the outdoor kitchen with grill island to the putting green. It was pure heaven!
140 year-old, beautiful historic house, with great patio and modern kitchen. Super clean, AC works well, and the property includes so many kitchen items, and toiletries. The guys used the putting green in the backyard and the girls hung out on the patio out of the sun. Downtown historic St. Augustine is less than a mile away and we walked each day to interesting 4 and 5 star restaurants. The bathrooms and showers were so clean and high end. The beds were comfortable and large. Just a great vacation for us and our friends!!
We were a bachelorette group of 5 and the theme was “this witch is getting hitched.” The house matched the vibe completely! We wanted to live there afterwards, which I can’t say I’ve felt that way after many rentals! It was clean, easy to navigate, and super cool to be inside! We would definitely rent here again that’s for sure. We were able to get in earlier on the first day which was incredibly helpful. The owners are very responsive and we appreciated that a lot. Perfect!
This property has the best of both worlds, it has historic charm as well as modern luxuries. It is obvious that the property owner strives very hard to make your stay at this house the absolute best experience. The bathrooms and kitchen are all appointed with high-quality fixtures as well as luxuries, such as a heated towel rack, rain shower, body sprays and hand-held spray in the master bathroom. Each bathroom had it's own plentiful supply of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The kitchen had plenty of supplies including dish soap, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, and napkins. The washer and dryer even came preloaded with detergent and fabric softener. The beds were all very comfortable with nice linens and quilts. The backyard is a true oasis with the putt-putt golf course and outdoor kitchen. We couldn't have asked for anything more in a vacation rental and truly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house.
