About this home
Back on the market after a previous buyer’s financing fell through. Home passed 4-point, home inspections, and septic - creating a smooth path forward for the next buyer. Experience the rare combination of privacy, acreage, and in-town convenience with this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath home set on over two acres in the heart of West Gainesville, just one mile west of I-75. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac with no neighbors on one side, this home offers a peaceful, tucked-away setting in the desirable Sunningdale neighborhood—with no HOA to limit how you live or use your property. All while being less than one mile from Publix and minutes from shopping, dining, and services. Inside, the home features a spacious and flexible floor plan with both a large living room and a separate family room with fireplace - ideal for a game room, media space, or additional entertaining area. Significant updates completed in 2021 include fully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms with granite counters, new roof, new garage door, and new water heater. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, a large pantry, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast nook, and updated lighting. Flooring includes tile in the main living areas and luxury vinyl plank flooring in three bedrooms. The fully renovated hall bathroom features a 60-inch vanity, tub/shower combination, and updated flooring. Large windows throughout fill the home with natural light, enhancing its open and inviting feel. Zoned for Terwilliger Elementary, Kanapaha Middle, and Buchholz High School, this property delivers space, updates, and location—a rare opportunity in West Gainesville. Homes offering this much land, privacy, and proximity to town are increasingly hard to find.
