Property Description
This darling mid-century modern home has all the right touches of “modern”. Originally built in 1948, this 3 bedroom, plus office space, 2 bath home is a mere 7 blocks from campus…a perfect location for an investor, your new AirBnB, or for a full time owner occupant. If you're looking a prime campus location, this home is due north, and under 1 mile, AND less than 4 minutes to The Swamp, Reitz Union, the Student Rec and Fitness Center, and for those studious sorts, also north of Library West. The home is situated on a .25 acre lot with over 95 ft of road frontage and a long paved driveway so parking is not a challenge. The charming front porch has the original wooden screen door for that midcentury appeal and its vintage metal mailbox hanging to the right. The front door opens onto the primary living space with its original parquet floors connecting most of the home. The once functioning fireplace is now completely used for decorative purposes. The former side screen porch was enclosed years ago, and makes for a perfect sun-drenched home office space. The kitchen and nook area were completely remodeled in 2012, and still looks fresh and new today! Updates include new cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and updated tile flooring. On far side of the kitchen is a single door which opens onto the former oversized 1 car garage which is now an enclosed storage room that is 26 ft deep and 11 ft wide. Store your Vespas, bikes, skateboards, and anything else and then some. At the very end of this storage room is the washer and dryer, and water heater. Adjacent to the kitchen is the nook with a wall of built ins for additional serving area and pantry storage. The flex space on the rear of the home has an updated “storefront” look with two sides of windows. The third wall has a door that opens directly into the washer/dryer area of the storage room. Wall off this door to make a secondary family room or additional flex room. The bedrooms are directly across the foyer through the primary family room. Two bedrooms have access to the full hallway bath. The guest bath has a tub/shower combination, an updated vanity, and a linen closet. The master bedroom has a small closet opposite the windows. Its brand new 2021 custom en suite bath has a step-in shower, dual sink vanity, floating shelves for storage, and has a huge walk in closet. For access to your private yard, the storefront door off the secondary family room/flex space opens onto the open air-patio. The yard is fully fenced, and faces south for maximum sun exposure. If you're looking to capture the vibes of mid-town and downtown Gainesville, this home is only 7 minutes and 2 miles from all that the downtown has to offer. The HVAC was replaced in 2015, and the roof in 2006. NOTE: Fogged window in living space to be replaced by early March. Glass is on order through Shea's Glass.
