The Hoyt House is an historic house located at 804 Atlantic Avenue, corner of 8th Street, in Fernandina Beach, Nassau County, Florida. It was built by John R. Mann in 1905 for local banker and merchant, Fred W. Hoyt, and is said to have been modeled after the Rockefeller Cottage on Jekyll Island, in Glynn County, Georgia. Hoyt and his family lived in it until his death in 1927. The Everett Mizell family lived there for the next half-century, followed by a local attorney, whose offices occupied the mansion until 1992.[1]
In 1989, the building was listed in A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture, published by the University of Florida Press.[1]
Today it is the Hoyt House Bed and Breakfast Inn.[2]
