About this home
RENOVATED HISTORIC HOUSE COMES WITH A COTTAGE THAT BRINGS IN $1100 A MONTH. This classic Florida “Chert” stone home sits on a fenced, private half acre corner lot less than 2 miles from UF. Built in 1937 and renovated in 2016-18, this property includes a main house that's nearly 2000 sq. ft. in size and a 324 sq. ft. cottage. Together they provide 4 bedrooms and 3 baths in approximately 2299 sq. ft of heated/cooled living space. The main house has 3 beds and 2 exquisite baths, a study with built-in bookshelves, a living room with a fireplace, and a spectacularly renovated kitchen/dining room designed for entertaining and large gatherings. Its very modern kitchen has a gas stove made for a chef, a wine refrigerator, beautiful cabinetry, granite countertops, glass backsplashes, all stainless appliances, and ample room for large dining room furniture. French doors and glass window walls in the kitchen/dining area open to a lushly wooded yard with fruit trees, a handsome deck and a hot tub. Original hardwood floors, windows with wood frames, deep wooden baseboards, and modern ceiling fans/lights are throughout the home. The detached cottage (included in the sq. footage) adds another bed and bath to this property. It has a high ceiling with stunning wood beams, a kitchenette, a full bathroom, a spacious living/bedroom area, and a mini-split cooling system. The cottage is perfect for generational living, a mother-in-law suite, a guest house, a home office, an art studio, or a rental unit. And there are no HOA fees. If you covet your privacy, love Florida history, and prefer living in town, near the university or near K-12 schools, this house is made for you. It’s full of character and unique features that you will never find in a newer home. It’s also located on Gainesville’s Bicycle Blvd., a path that goes to UF and downtown. This unique historic home won’t last long. Make an appointment to see it right away. Realtors, see private remarks....
