The Space:

Welcome to your private residence at The Fourth House, an individually designed retreat created to feel collected, comfortable and distinctly different from the typical holiday rental.



Located on the ground floor, the residence pairs the character of Historic Springfield with a sophisticated interior designed for guests who appreciate beautiful spaces without sacrificing everyday comfort.



FULL KITCHEN



The residence includes a fully equipped private kitchen, giving you the flexibility to dine out or enjoy the comforts of cooking at home.



It's particularly convenient for extended stays, travelling professionals and guests who simply prefer having a real kitchen rather than relying on takeaway for every meal.



FIRST-FLOOR LOCATION



This residence is located on the Ground floor and requires approximately three steps to access the front porch and unit door. There is no lift but there is a handrail.



HISTORIC SPRINGFIELD AT YOUR DOORSTEP



One of the best features of The Fourth House is its location.



You'll be staying in the heart of Historic Springfield, a Jacksonville area known for its distinctive historic homes, architecture, local businesses and community character.



Area restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, bakeries and Main Street favourites are just streets away, giving you plenty to experience close to home.



The property also provides convenient access to City centre Jacksonville, UF Health Jacksonville, the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute, Baptist Medical Centre Jacksonville, Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Centre, Wolfson Children's Hospital, Florida State College at Jacksonville's City centre Campus, EverBank Stadium, VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena and Daily's Place.



This makes the residence especially well suited for travelling doctors and healthcare professionals, corporate travellers, visiting faculty, medical patients and their families, couples, relocating professionals and guests seeking quality accommodation for extended stays.



SHARED FENCED BACKYARD



Guests also have access to the property's shared fenced backyard, providing an additional outdoor space to enjoy during your stay.



The Fourth House consists of four private residences, so the backyard is shared respectfully among guests of the property.

Each residence has its own assigned unit number and a distinctive coloured entrance door, making your residence easy to identify. Your specific unit and door information will be included with your check-in instructions.

Street parking is available only. There is no designated private car park or driveway for guests.



DESIGNED FOR A DIFFERENT KIND OF STAY



The Fourth House is for travellers who want more than a place to sleep.



It's for the guest who appreciates thoughtful interiors, historic surroundings, privacy and the ability to experience Jacksonville from a residence that feels intentionally designed.



Enjoy your morning coffee at home, explore Springfield on foot, spend the day City centre, return to your own private space and settle into the area at your own pace.



Whether you're here for a few nights or an extended stay, The Fourth House was designed to feel like somewhere you'd want to stay a little longer.



Guest Access:

Finding the property: The Fourth House is the teal/blue historic home located behind the black gate divided into 4 different units.



Enter through the black gate and please close and securely latch the gate behind you each time you enter or exit the property. This helps keep the shared property secure and comfortable for everyone.



Each residence has its own assigned unit number and a different coloured entrance door, making it easier to identify your specific accommodation. Your unit number, door colour and detailed check-in instructions will be provided prior to arrival.
