Some Gainesville homes have a backyard. This one offers nearly three-quarters of an acre surrounded by nature. Mature trees, a meandering creek and abundant wildlife create a private setting around this beautifully remodeled, solid concrete-block home featuring four bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms and no HOA-all just minutes from UF, shopping and everyday conveniences. Inside, the spacious remodeled kitchen features new countertops and an oversized island overlooking the family room, complete with a new electric fireplace. Generously sized bedrooms, new flooring, and fresh interior and exterior paint make the home truly move-in ready. A large circular driveway and two-car garage provide abundant parking. Outside is where this property truly distinguishes itself. The expansive lot extends into a peaceful natural landscape, with a creek near the rear of the property, a fire pit overlooking the surroundings, mature trees and frequent visits from birds and local wildlife. There is plenty of space for recreation, entertaining, gardening or simply relaxing in the privacy of your own outdoor retreat. The location delivers an exceptional combination of privacy and convenience. NW 39th Avenue and NW 43rd Street are less than one-quarter mile away, Publix and The Fresh Market are within one mile, the University of Florida is approximately 3.5 miles away, and Gainesville Regional Airport is about a 15-minute drive. For those seeking proximity to UF, the property also presents an appealing alternative to years of student housing-a comfortable home with room for guests and the flexibility to remain a valuable Gainesville property well beyond graduation.
