About This Home
CHARMING, UPDATED & MOVE-IN READY IN SPRINGTREE! From the moment you step through the wrought-iron gate into the front courtyard, this lovingly maintained 2-bed/2-bath home in northwest Gainesville feels like something special. Nearly 1,200 square feet of smart, comfortable living space — with vaulted ceilings that make every room feel larger than it is. The split floor plan gives each bedroom its own private bath and walk-in closet, making it ideal for roommates, graduate students, a home office setup, or anyone who values privacy and flexibility. The kitchen shines with stylish fixtures, a stainless steel range hood over the gas stove, and a dishwasher — ready for everything from quick weeknight meals to weekend cooking. The current owners have poured love into this home: fresh interior and exterior paint, a brand-new roof and gutters, and a backyard that has been truly transformed. The screened-in back porch overlooks a fenced yard now featuring a stunning fire pit gathering area, a decorative ginger garden, and a budding fruit tree orchard — avocado, papaya, peach, orange, mulberry, and Japanese plum. This is outdoor living at its Florida finest. Additional highlights: vinyl plank flooring throughout, gorgeous updated primary bathrooms, architectural shingle roof (new 2025), 2-car garage, and paver front courtyard. Springtree is a sought-after northwest Gainesville community just off 39th Ave. 15 minutes from UF, 15 minutes from Santa Fe College, less than a mile from Publix, just 10 minutes to Fresh Market, Uppercrust Bakery and Thornebrook shopping centers. Sellers willing to pay up to $750.00 towards buyer's home warranty. Come see this treasure today!
