The property is fully fenced with an electric gated entrance, boasts an all-brick exterior, and sits far back on the street for an impressive approach for all who visit. The home features 4 large bedrooms plus a study and 3.5 baths. The welcoming grand foyer and classic staircase creates your first impression. Every room has been updated with wood laminate flooring and modern vibes are evident from the light fixtures, paint colors, and newer kitchen and baths. To the right of the foyer is the formal living room with decorative fireplace and to the left is a banquet size formal dining with stunning light fixture and chair rail. Entering the large family room, you are immediately drawn to the impressive walk around bar area that features open display shelving and storage and wine racks around the back, and is plumbed for a sink. The family room has wall to wall windows and french doors to the lanai which allows for expansive views of the large yard and the former Gainesville Country Club golf course. Stepping from the family room into the kitchen you are immediately hit with the wow factor – recent complete renovation by Haile Kitchen and Bath. Floor to ceiling wood cabinets, quartz counters, large island, and all stainless appliances including a gas range, additional built-in wall oven, microwave, and french door refrigerator add to the magazine worthy quality of the kitchen. The highlight of the area is a glass door walk-in wine storage area that could also double as a pantry. At the far end located in front of a wide bay window is a spacious breakfast area which also enjoys views of the back. To the back of house behind the family room is a large office with closet. The owner’s suite on the main floor is large enough to encompass a sitting area, again with unobstructed back yard views. The owner’s bath, also totally renovated including new vanities with quartz tops, features a split design with two sides bridged by a glass enclosed shower. Two large closets, one being a huge walk-in, complete the owner’s suite. A convenient half bath for guests is also located downstairs. The second-floor features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, one being over-sized, the total depth of the house, with an updated en-suite bath, perfect for an in-law situation. The other two guest rooms share an updated hall bath. Off the back of the house is a picturesque screen lanai with slate like tile flooring overlooking a large brick courtyard. The entire back yard is encased by vinyl fencing and there are wide open views of the former golf course. A side entry two car garage plus a golf cart garage completes the offering. In addition to the cosmetic updating is a 2022 roof, 2022 and 2016 HVAC systems, and 2018 hot water heater. Minutes from I-75, UF and UF Health, the VA, Butler Plaza, and Celebration Point, you couldn’t ask for a better location.
