Timeless Colonial Estate in Kirkwood 1.32 Acres of Private Luxury in the Heart of Gainesville An extraordinary Colonial estate nestled on 1.32 acres of pristine, professionally landscaped grounds in the coveted Kirkwood neighborhood. One of Gainesville’s most prestigious and rarely available enclaves. This remarkable property offers a rare blend of architectural elegance, refined indoor-outdoor living, and a location that places you moments from everything yet feels worlds away. A circular paver driveway and stately façade set the stage. Step through the grand entry into a slate-tiled foyer, where a sweeping spiral staircase and sun-drenched interiors immediately reflect the timeless sophistication of this distinguished home. Designed for both comfort and grandeur, the layout includes 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 versatile flex rooms, and expansive living areas with abundant natural light and seamless flow. The centerpiece of the home is a fully renovated chef’s kitchen, appointed with custom cabinetry, rich granite countertops, and premium finishes, opening effortlessly into the family room, ideal for intimate evenings or large-scale entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling retractable glass doors and new French doors showcase serene views of the resort-style pool, spa, and waterslide, inviting a lifestyle of ease and luxury. Step outside to an outdoor oasis featuring a fully outfitted summer kitchen with a natural gas grilling station, slate countertops, a full-size sink, and a kegerator, perfect for entertaining year-round. A recently renovated laundry and pool bath delivers both style and function with inset cabinetry and quartz surfaces, elevating everyday living. Additional features include a detached 2-car garage (in addition to the attached 2-car garage), lush landscaping, and plenty of green space for recreation or peaceful reflection. Located just 1.3 miles to the University of Florida, under 2 miles to UF Health/Shands, and minutes from downtown Gainesville, Depot Park, University of Florida's PK Yonge Laboratory School, Butler Plaza, and Celebration Pointe, this is more than a home—it’s an extraordinary opportunity to own a legacy property in one of Gainesville’s most exclusive neighborhoods. Timeless in design. Unrivaled in location. Exceptional in every way.
