One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Located less than 3 miles to the University of Florida, this 3bd/2ba concrete block ranch sits on a large, corner lot of a dead-end street. No thru traffic means extra peace and tranquility, while remaining centrally located in the heart of Gainesville, less than one mile from the Millhopper Shopping Center. Interior features include an open floor plan, updated windows, and NO carpet. The kitchen has newer appliances, a breakfast bar and a skylight, making the space light and bright. Off the main living room, there are sliding glass doors that lead to a tiled sunroom (which is not included in the heated/cooled square footage), and French doors that lead you to the large backyard. The original carport has been enclosed creating a bonus room or den. Exterior features include double gates to the backyard, mature azaleas and camellias, as well as an enormous workshop. Metal roof in 2014 and a new gas water heater in 2025. Convenient to public transportation too! RTS Bus route 10 picks up on NW 16th BLVD and goes to UF.
