Bright & spacious apt - very pet friendly!

Summary:

This large, bright, and airy 2-bedroom apartment is one of four rentals on the second floor of a mixed-use building in the heart of Springfield's vibrant renaissance. With a spacious layout, modern finishes, and plenty of natural light, this apartment offers a comfortable and inviting space for short-term renters. You'll be surrounded by the area's best spots, including 1848 Bakehouse or Social Grounds below, where you can enjoy delicious coffee and pastries, Crispy's pizza just across the street, and a variety of local breweries. This apartment provides the perfect mix of urban convenience and historic charm, all within walking distance to the best dining, shopping, and entertainment Springfield has to offer.



It is a great spot for someone traveling to Jax for events at TIAA Bank Field / Dailey's Place, for business downtown, small groups, service members on TAD, or visiting family members. You’ll book for the central location but will quickly fall in love (just like I did in 2005) with this vibrant, diverse, up and coming historic district!



The Space:

Spread out in this large 2 bedroom apartment complete with a full kitchen, separate living room room with sleeper sofa, and 2 bedrooms each with queen and full-sized memory foam mattresses.



The kitchen and living room are part of an open floor plan so the apartment feels very spacious and inviting.



The unit also has an in unit washer/dryer that is perfect for longer term guests.



Guest Access:

Guests have access to the entire apartment. You do share an atrium on the 2nd floor of the building with a few other apartments home to longer term tenants.



The Neighborhood:

Springfield is amazing! It is a diverse, vibrant, up and coming neighborhood located just north of Jacksonville's downtown. You'll initially fall in love with the gorgeous late 19th/early 20th century houses but you'll want to stay for the amazing people. Join a First Friday party, check out the weekly Main Street cruise, downtown's Art Walk, Porchfest if you're in town in the fall, or one of the yearly home tours. This apartment is also literally within the St Patty’s Day block party area - so it’s a fantastic spot if you’re in town visiting during that event!



A few recommendations:



Restaurants



Crispy’s for great pub food and phenomenal pizza is across the street from you



Wafaa and Mike’s Cafe for delicious Mediterranean food is a few blocks away



Tommy’s for Springfield’s famous $3 breakfast in a cup is a few blocks away



Sweet Pete’s for amazing food and sinfully delicious sweets is about a mile walk from you downtown



Coffee



Social Grounds coffee shop for the best (not joking - seriously amazing) locally roasted coffee in Jax is right beneath you!



Drinks



Hyperion - craft brewery is less than a block away



6th and Main - craft brewery is 1 block away



Getting Around:

This part of Springfield is very walkable with multiple venues within a short stroll. Jacksonville's central bus station and the Skyway are both approximately one mile to the south.



I recommend renting a car if you're going to spend any time outside of the "Urban Core" portion of the city. It is approximately a 30 min drive to Jacksonville's beaches and a 45-60 min drive to St Augustine and Fernandina Beach.



It is only a 15-20 min drive to Jax Int'l Airport and is right off of I-95's 8th St exit so is perfect if you're flying into or out of JIA.



Interaction with Guests:

I am happy to show guests around Springfield if I am in town!
