One or more photos were virtually staged (fire shown in fireplace). Welcome to this well-maintained 3-bed, 2-bath home, perfectly situated a few miles from the University of Florida, Condron Ballpark, College of Veterinary Medicine, I-75 (Williston or Archer Road), Downtown Gainesville, as well as UF Health (Shands Hospital), the VA Hospital, and Butler Plaza for shopping. This move-in-ready gem is located on a Florida-Friendly LandscapingTM low-maintenance lot with a fenced backyard. This home features a new gas hot-water heater (Feb 2025), vaulted living room ceiling, and a more recently painted whole-house interior as well as an attached one-car garage, and double-driveway. The pass-through kitchen has a dog-run entryway door to the backyard, as well as a pantry. The hallway has both a coat and linen closets. The spacious primary suite, over 16-feet by 12-feet has plenty of room for a desk or loveseat, and features a walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom with a lovely view of the backyard. The second bedroom has access to the backyard via a French door. There are screen doors on all three entry doors to enjoy the breeze during Florida’s cooler spring and fall seasons. The guest bathroom is located between the second and third bedrooms, making it ideal for a roommate situation, or for family members. Step outside to the naturally landscaped backyard, where you'll find a serene retreat with privacy fencing, ideal for outdoor relaxation or watching little ones play. Two paved sitting areas, joined by cement walkways, and lush greenery, make this space truly enchanting. Located in the Serenola Manor neighborhood, which has no HOA fees, this home offers quick and easy access to SW 34th St, Williston Road, and Archer Road. Nature lovers will also appreciate the close proximity to Sweetwater Wetlands Park and Kanapaha Botanical Gardens, both excellent spots for hiking as well as a 15-minute drive to historical Micanopy, the second-oldest city in Florida.
