Soft morning light drifts through the windows of this Ortega Farms front unit as the neighborhood settles into its quiet rhythm. Evenings draw you indoors around the 155-inch projector screen or the full-size pool table, while tree-lined streets and nearby riverfront parks wait just outside your door. This is the front unit of a duplex - not the full duplex - offering a private, comfortable home base for groups ready to explore Jacksonville at their own pace.
Sleeping arrangements Three bedrooms each hold a queen bed dressed with bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets, with room-darkening shades keeping mornings as restful as you need them. Clothing storage and hangers keep things organized throughout the stay. Beyond the bedrooms, a sleeper sofa and a queen murphy bed extend the sleeping arrangements to accommodate up to 9 guests comfortably.
Entertainment & living space The living area doubles as your private home theater - settle into the sectional and pull up a film on the 155-inch projector screen, or switch over to the HDTV with Chromecast, Fire TV, and Netflix. A sound system rounds out the setup, and the full-size pool table keeps the evenings lively. Central air conditioning and central heating maintain a comfortable indoor climate year-round.
Kitchen & dining The kitchen is stocked for real cooking - a Whirlpool refrigerator, freezer, electric stove, and oven anchor the space, supported by a microwave, Keurig coffee maker, hot water kettle, blender, rice maker, bread maker, toaster, and baking sheet. Cooking basics, dishes, silverware, wine glasses, and chopsticks are all on hand, and coffee is provided to start your mornings without a trip out.
Workspace & connectivity Fast Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace in a room with a door make it easy to handle focused work without disrupting the rest of the group.
Bathroom Bathroom essentials are fully stocked, including Ginger Lily Farms Zero Derm shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper - everything you need from the moment you arrive.
Parking & access The home is single level with no stairs inside, making movement between spaces easy for everyone. A private entrance, free parking on the premises, and additional free street parking ensure arrivals and departures stay simple. Exterior security cameras are positioned around the outside of the property, recording only when motion is detected - there are no cameras inside the Airbnb.
Extras Guests have access to free kayak rentals through Ortega Outdoors and discounted jet ski rentals from Evolution Jetsports - ideal ways to get out onto the waterways surrounding the neighborhood.
Neighborhood Ortega Farms sits close to Stockton Park and Stinson Park along the riverfront, with everyday conveniences on Timuquana Road nearby. Riverside, Avondale, downtown Jacksonville, NAS Jax, and the shops at Roosevelt Square are all straightforward drives from the property.
