About this property

The Contemporary

Premier location, steps away from historic downtown and one of the oldest houses in Sanford!
• 2 Queen Beds, upstairs (you’ll need to walk up one flight of stairs)
• We’ve tried to create the most modern design we could imagine while incorporating the original fireplace and taking advantage of the dramatically vaulted ceilings and original beams which date back to 1894
• Our goal is to exceed your expectations, provide a comfortable feeling like you are at home

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!

Peaceful
This was an amazing place for my husband and I to stay in the historic town of Sanford. We loved how close the historic town but also how close the downtown area was. The hospitality was amazing and the hosts were very responsive when I had questions or requests. I will stay again and would highly recommend!
