Built in 1935, historic charm abounds with beautiful windows that allow light to flow into every room, high ceilings and refinished oak floors. The first story includes a living room with an updated fireplace, a renovated kitchen and attached dining area, a bonus room for an office and a half bath. The kitchen includes updated cabinetry, granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances. The fenced backyard has a covered porch and plenty of room for gardening or a pool! The second story has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The primary bedroom includes two good-sized closets and an updated bathroom from 2023 with custom cabinetry, a double vanity, tiled shower and solid surface countertops. The hall bathroom was updated in 2019 with a tile surround and vanity. The exterior was completely repainted in 2022 with meticulous attention to details like the restoration of every screen with a three-color palate. The large, double lot is stunning with a variety of native plantings, palms, fruit trees, a rose and herb garden, flowering camellias, azaleas and an irrigation system. Only steps away from the Thomas Center, you have access to the well-loved public gardens that host yoga and meditation workshops under gracious live oak trees. The south-facing entry is screened and includes a porch swing. The east side of the home includes an owners' entry through a private courtyard and a spacious two-car garage with plenty of space for two vehicles, storage and a workspace for projects. Walking distance to art galleries, farmers' markets, restaurants and all that downtown Gainesville has to offer and only a short bike ride to the University of Florida. Rare opportunity to purchase a completely restored and move-in ready historic home!
