Florida Farmhouse Sanford FL

The house was perfect for our extended family stay--very spacious, clean and the beds were comfortable. The owner thought of every detail to make our stay enjoyable. The house is walking distance to the historic Sanford district. We need to come back so that we can explore the town!

Super nice, clean and spacious. Convenient to many restaurants and services like grocery stores and so forth. Previous guests had left some provisions/non-perishables making our community cooking efforts very satisfying. Would enjoy the opportunity of staying in this property again.

60th birthday/Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful few days at Susan’s house in Sanford. My brother’s and my families stayed in the farmhouse as we have other siblings and our mom who live locally. It was perfect for our needs. Susan even dropped off some cooking equipment that she thought we might need. I will definitely stay here in the future if needed.

Perfect location and character

Locals wanting to host out of town family for a wedding just blocks away. Older family members truly benefited from the ramp leading to the bedrooms from outside the home . Also from the walk-in showers We had everything we needed. Beds were very comfy as were the sofa and chairs. Susan was an amazing host who communicated quickly to answer questions and a special request. Overall, very happy we choose to stay at this historic home

Better than advertised!

Really cute house built in 1901 with enough renovation to make it super comfortable but without losing the feel of a great house built in 1901. It had way more space and bed than we needed! The bed were all really comfortable. The living room couch also got an A+ for comfort. It is walking distance to Down town Sanford which seems to be having a really nice revival. We ate at the "The Old Jailhouse" which is a must but make a reservation. Great food and amazing setting. Overall, I would absolutely stay again and the owner was very friendly and open to any communication needed.
