Cozy SMB Themed Apt in the Heart of Historic SPR!

Summary:

We recently refreshed this apt to harken back to your favorite plumber themed NES classic. If you're a Mario, Luigi, or Princess Toadstool (we don't enjoy hosting Bowsers) this is the perfect spot for you! Yoshis are welcome too. :)



You’ll be steps from restaurants, coffee shops, and an axe throwing venue!



This apt is next to a busy intersection so you will experience road noise. This is a wonderful yet developing urban neighborhood.



Also, large vehicles are not recommended for guests at this property. The parking lot is relatively small / crowded and large vehicles parking here make it difficult for other guests to get in and out of the parking lot.

There is nearby street parking available for larger vehicles but it will not be in the gated area.



The Space:

Guests have access to the entire 2 BR / 1 BA apartment with a brand new kitchen, bathroom, tankless hot water heater, and fresh paint, lights, ceiling fans, barn-door style closet doors, and new bedroom and living room furniture, including a new 65" TV and a 43" TV in the master bedroom.



The master bedroom features a brand new king-sized bed complete with memory foam mattress, a night stand, a chest of drawers, a desk for work, and a closet.



The 2nd bedroom features a queen-sized bed, nightstand, chest of drawers, and a closet.



The living room includes a sleeper sofa, an island with bar stools.



The generous kitchen is stocked with utensils, a microwave, coffee pot, toaster, refrigerator/freezer, oven/range, cooking utensils/cutlery and plates.



The freshly renovated bathroom has a sumptuous walk in shower with glass door supplied with towels, and shower items (body wash, shampoo, conditioner).



Guest Access:

Guests have access to in unit laundry and gated parking - limit 1 car per guest in the gated parking area due to its size



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.
