Property info

Premier location, steps away from historic downtown and one of the oldest houses in Sanford! • 2 Queen Beds • Decorated with modern flair but set around the original 1894 fireplace • Our goal is to exceed your expectations, provide a comfortable, personal experience, and give you the feeling that you are at home. • Lounge on the newly constructed front porch, or take your furry friend to the Dog Park down the street (This unit is pet friendly but a non refundable pet deposit will apply. Ask for details.) History of the Home This home was built in 1894 and is one of the oldest houses in Sanford. In fact, Sanford is one of the oldest towns in Florida going back to the 1870’s. 212 West 4th is not only one of the oldest homes in Sanford but was also built and lived in by one of the most renowned and famous Sanford residents; W.J. Hill. In fact, he built it for his wife Alice and it stayed in the family until the mid 1920’s. Hill was one of the first merchants in Sanford and operated a Hardware store and lumber yard. The remnants of the lumber yard are directly behind this home (long metal yellow building) and what’s left of the hardware store is on the corner of Oak and 3rd and still bears the Hill Hardware original signage. If you’re interested to learn more about Sanford, the Hill Family or the lineage of who’s lived in this home, plan a visit with us and stay in this historic home!
