Step into charm and comfort with this eco-friendly 3-bed, 2-bath bungalow in the historic walkable neighborhood of Pleasant Street in downtown Gainesville! Featuring fresh paint, wood-look laminate flooring, and solar panels that will be paid off at closing, this 1,265 sq ft home is pristine and move-in ready. Lush landscaping and a covered front porch welcome you to the property. As you make your way inside, you will find a cozy living room with an inviting space to gather with friends and family. An open concept layout has the living room flowing seamlessly into the well-appointed remodeled eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances including a new dishwasher, solid wood cabinets, and custom red oak countertops. Conveniently located off the kitchen is a laundry room complete with washer and dryer, and a door leading to the fabulous side porch that extends nearly the length of the house. Down the hall are two guest bedrooms with plenty of closet space, and a full guest bath with tub/shower comb. The spacious primary suite boasts a walk-in closet and ensuite bath with tub/shower combo. It also has a door opening to the long side porch, which is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sights, sounds, and fragrances of a gardener’s paradise that includes mature landscaping, raised garden beds, plants that attract butterflies and hummingbirds, and over 20 different fruit and spice trees including pawpaw, mulberry, purple passion fruit, starfruit, pineapple, guava, persimmon, moringa, and curry leaf. A chicken coop, storage shed, and privacy fence complete this private oasis. The home has energy efficient appliances, and the solar panels generate enough energy to offset the home’s electric use, and even create a surplus at times. Updates to the home include the roof (2019), HVAC (2019), and tankless hot water heater (2018). Pleasant Street is a short stroll from Grove Street and Duckpond. All of these neighborhoods are lively and rich in history. You can find farmers markets, live music, restaurants, and shopping just a few blocks away. University of Florida is only a mile away. Listings in this neighborhood are rare, so if you have been searching for property that offers a blend of charm, character, and privacy in a vibrant and unique part of downtown Gainesville, schedule a private tour and immerse yourself in the experience!
