Tucked away on a serene, wooded lot just off the western stretch of Millhopper Road, this thoughtfully designed single-story custom home was built by its original builder as his own, a distinction that speaks volumes about the quality and care put into every detail. Spanning 3,252 square feet on a private 1.25-acre setting, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom pool home makes a striking first impression from the moment you arrive. Step through the front door and your eye is immediately drawn through the home to the pool beyond. The showpiece of the formal wing is the library, a living room wrapped in floor-to-ceiling built-ins, anchored by a window seat with pool views. To the left of the entry, the owner's suite offers a retreat complete with an ensuite bath featuring a walk-in shower, separate vanities and a private water closet. Just off the foyer, a large office with a closet, can transition into a fifth bedroom when needed. The informal living areas: kitchen, family room and an oversized bonus room, flow together and can be privately enclosed via a pocket door and sliding barn door, offering flexibility for entertaining or everyday living. The bonus room opens directly to the pool patio. Throughout the home, all the windows provide natural light while framing views of the pool and backyard. Two guest bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while a fourth bedroom near the rear of the home has access to the pool bath. Outside, a screened, solar-heated in-ground pool, re-marcited in 2020, is framed by a paver patio, a flagstone fire pit sitting area in the backyard sets the stage for relaxed evenings. A practical drop zone near the garage adds everyday ease and a separate laundry room with sink and storage closet rounds out the functionality. Roof replaced 2021. Ideally situated with easy access to UF, Shands, HCA North Florida, Progress Park/Alachua, San Felasco Hammock Preserve, Devil's Millhopper Geological State Park, the DB Racquet Club, and a variety of shops and dining options.
