Welcome to this inviting pool home in one of Gainesville's most convenient and charming locations. Set on a spacious quarter acre lot, you are just minutes to Downtown, UF, Shands, restaurants, and shopping, plus you can easily walk to Tom Petty Park and the heart of the Duckpond area. Inside, you will love the warm hardwood floors, great natural light, and that classic Old Florida character that makes this home feel special. The layout is super versatile too, essentially functioning as a 2 bedroom 1 bath on one side, plus a separate 1 bedroom 1 bath apartment on the other with its own private entrance. Whether you need a guest suite, a mother in law setup, a home office with privacy, or you want the option for rental income, this home gives you flexibility to make it work for your lifestyle. You will also appreciate the fresh and functional updated main kitchen, making everyday living easy while still keeping the charm of the home intact. Step out back and you will find your own private retreat, fully fenced for privacy, with tropical landscaping framing the pool area. The large screened patio adds to the Florida style living. Big updates already done for you including updated electrical in 2022, new windows in 2022, a newer water heater, a 2025 metal roof, a new pool liner and pool pump, so you can move right in and enjoy. This is the kind of home that feels like a getaway while still being close to everything Gainesville has to offer.
