Florida, Alachua County, Gainesville, USA

Asheville meets Gainesville! This storybook Southern charmer sits tucked beneath a canopy of trees, with a 40' front porch that feels like it was made for rocking chairs and long conversations. The large entry welcomes you into a home that balances classic style with everyday comfort. Inside, natural light filters through plantation shutters, highlighting warm wood accents and a thoughtful floor plan (see floor plan in photos) - including a large MUDROOM/drop-zone and walk-in pantry. The living spaces are open yet inviting, with room for gatherings both big and small. The kitchen flows easily into the heart of the home, offering a place to cook, connect, and create memories. Step outside to enjoy the peaceful setting — on your 38' screened lanai, surrounded by a FULL ACRE of greenery and the quiet of nature, yet close to all that Gainesville has to offer (3 minutes to PUBLIX, Santa Fe College or I-75, 9 minutes to North Florida Hospital, 13 minutes to UF's Levin College of Law, 15 minutes to "THE SWAMP"). Downstairs the Primary Suite opens to the covered and screened lanai that stretches across the back of the of the home, perfect for relaxing at the end of the day. Upstairs, the guest bedrooms and bathrooms feature dormer windows add charm and character. Brick steps, a winding walkway, and established landscaping complete the picture, making this home as welcoming outside as it is inside. The GATED community of "The Sanctuary" is just that - a place that feels both timeless and unique. Come experience it in person! Video:
