Located just outside the Gainesville city limits, this beautifully crafted solid cedar wood home, built in 1984, offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Set on 4.42 acres in a community of custom-built homes on oversized lots, the property also includes access to scenic neighborhood trails, ideal for quiet walks and enjoying the outdoors. All of this just 15 minutes from UF, Shands, the VA, and close to shopping and dining. The home offers 2,840 square feet of living space, with 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, including a Jack-and-Jill bath. A spacious upstairs loft with a full bath and walk-in closet provides flexible use for a home office, playroom, or guest area. The main living room is filled with natural light and features dramatic vaulted ceilings, while the kitchen and primary bathroom are appointed with granite countertops. Hardwood floors in the living area and primary bedroom add warmth and charm, and a set of French doors serves as a welcoming entrance into the home’s inviting interior. The outdoor living experience is equally impressive. A large screened-in porch with a hot tub offers space for relaxing or entertaining, and a private pool just beyond is surrounded by open sky and mature landscaping. The property also features an artificial pond with a custom-designed rock waterfall, creating a peaceful backdrop that attracts a local family of deer. A detached shed offers practical storage for tools and yard equipment. This well-maintained and thoughtfully designed home presents a rare opportunity to enjoy space, serenity, and timeless craftsmanship—all within easy reach of everything Gainesville has.
