About this home

Welcome to this lovingly maintained, one-owner home in the highly sought-after Turkey Creek Forest, a gated 55+ community in Northwest Gainesville. Proudly owned and occupied by the original owner since it was built, this well-cared-for residence reflects years of attentive maintenance and pride of ownership. The home offers a peaceful setting with added privacy thanks to the adjacent 376-acre Turkey Creek Preserve. Protected by Alachua County, this natural conservation area ensures there will be no future development behind the property, preserving the serene views and abundant wildlife for years to come. Nearby walking and nature trails provide easy access to outdoor recreation right from the community. While the interior remains largely original, the home has been exceptionally maintained and several major components have already been updated, including a new roof in 2023 and a new water heater in 2026, providing valuable peace of mind for the next owner. Additional conveniences include a covered carport and an attached storage/utility room/laundry room, offering plenty of space for tools, and extra storage. Residents of Turkey Creek Forest enjoy an active lifestyle with exceptional amenities including a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts, shuffleboard courts, and a variety of social activities and events. The community also provides nightly security patrols, typically from 9 PM to 4 AM, for added peace of mind. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, healthcare facilities, and major roadways, this home offers the ideal combination of comfort and convenience. This rare one-owner home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
