Tucked away behind mature woods and bordered by a spring-fed creek, this 14-acre Gainesville estate offers the rare combination of private farm living with close-to-town convenience—just 10 minutes from downtown Gainesville. The setting feels like a secluded countryside retreat, complete with wooded trails and peaceful natural surroundings, yet remains easily… Read More accessible to everyday amenities.
Designed with equestrian living in mind, the property features two fenced paddocks with room to expand, plus a Morton-built 8-stall barn (2006) equipped with electric, hot and cold water, and a dedicated feed and tack room. With ample space for a future arena and direct access to wooded riding trails across the creek, this property is well-positioned for both recreational and serious equestrian use.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a screen-enclosed in-ground pool and a light-filled sunroom—perfect as a classic Florida room, plant space, or additional entertaining area. A 12x12 wood deck, electric gated entry, and a new 80,000 lb-capacity bridge add both function and curb appeal. A 624 sq ft detached two-car garage provides additional storage and flexibility.
The 4,215 sq ft home has been thoughtfully updated and offers a flexible layout with 6 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, ideal for multi-generational living or hosting guests. Inside, you’ll find hardwood flooring, stained glass accents, and a wood-burning fireplace that add warmth and character. The kitchen is functional and well laid out with a new dishwasher, hood vent, stove, and dual basin sink, ready for customization to your personal style.
A standout feature is the two primary suites on the main level. The main owner’s suite includes a walk-in closet, garden tub, walk-in shower, and dual vanities, while the second suite—complete with its own en suite bath and private deck access—offers versatility as a guest retreat, in-law suite, or additional living space.
Upstairs, four additional bedrooms with hardwood flooring are connected by Jack-and-Jill bathrooms, and a second-floor laundry area adds everyday convenience. Ceiling fans are installed throughout all bedrooms.
