Description

CHARM, UPDATES & A GREAT GAINESVILLE LOCATION! This beautifully updated 1944 Craftsman offers the character of a vintage home with many of the big-ticket improvements already completed. ROOF & HVAC 2023, plus a gas water heater (2014), updated kitchen (with a gas stove) and bathroom, newer fence, and fresh interior and exterior paint.

Inside, original refinished hardwood floors, crystal doorknobs and classic wood trim preserve the charm that makes this home so special. The spacious living room offers flexibility for a home office or additional sitting area, while multiple closets provide surprising storage for a home of this era. Outside, the generous yard with beautiful flower beds offers plenty of possibilities—garden, fire pit, shed, entertaining space or even a future pool.

The location is another standout! Just off 13th Street and approximately 2 miles from the University of Florida, with shopping, grocery stores, coffee shops and restaurants nearby. A great opportunity to own a move-in-ready home with vintage Gainesville character, modern updates and convenient access to everything!
