Property Description
Introducing a gem that encapsulates the essence of mid-century modern design, this home seamlessly blends the nostalgic charm of the past with contemporary elegance. This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home, with a newer roof, is nestled in the sought-after neighborhood of Forest Ridge. This residence offers a unique living experience for discerning individuals seeking timeless style.
As you approach the property, you will love the brick façade and driveway that leads to a private carport. Step inside and you will find a foyer that directs you into either the living room or the family room, which has sliding glass doors that open out to the back patio area and overlook the mature backyard. The windows throughout the home allow tons of natural light into the home which play nicely with the polished concrete. There are wood finishes that give mid-century character throughout. In the living room you will also find an Ocala brick fireplace and built ins, which are perfect to display your collection of art or books.
There is a dedicated dining space just off the kitchen. The galley style kitchen, with stainless steel appliances and a large pantry, makes it easy to cook. With some updating, the kitchen could become a great focal point of the home. Just through the mudroom area, there is a laundry and utility closet that can be accessed from the interior of the home or carport.
All bedrooms are situated on the East side of the home, which allows for the morning light to enter! The owner’s suite is spacious and has an ensuite bathroom that has a new shower head, light fixture, and fresh coat of paint. Just off the hallway outside the primary bedroom, you are also able to access the porch. This home has great closet space and a lot of storage space for a home built in the 1960s. Guest bedroom includes a murphy bed, so you can use this space for as an office or sewing room and easily convert it for guests. The guest bathroom has a fresh coat of paint and new fixtures in the shower.
Step outside onto the patio, where you'll discover a private porch area where you could easily eat dinner every night! The beautifully landscaped yard features native plants, mature trees, and a garden. The garden hosts tomato, cucumber, pepper, okra, kale, lettuce while you also have the following fruit trees - loquat, fig, native Florida plum, dwarf satsuma, and scarlet beauty. You’ll enjoy your mature yard with camellia, azalea, hibiscus, amaryllis, a shady live oak, and a pine tree. Keep all your gardening supplies in the shed!
This home has a 2021 roof, 2015 Trane HVAC that has regularly been serviced, and a 2015 water heater.
Located just off NW 16th Ave, this home is less than 2 miles to the University of Florida, less than 5 miles to Sante Fe College and North Florida hospital. You can enjoy everything the Thonebrook Village has to offer or easily get to Downtown Gainesville, as both are less than 3 miles away from this home. Now is your chance to own a lovely home in the Forest Ridge neighborhood!
