About This Home

As of December 2025

Welcome home to the perfect blend of relaxation, comfort, and lakefront living. Tucked away on a private lot with no HOA, no covenants, and no rental restrictions, this beautifully updated home offers all the peace and freedom you've been looking for. From the moment you walk in, you'll be drawn to the incredible lake views visible through the home's expansive windows. Natural light fills every corner, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. The open great room is the heart of the home, featuring a large stone wood-burning fireplace that's perfect for cozy evenings after a day on the water. The space flows easily into the dining area and sunroom, where floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in. The sunroom can serve as a flexible space for an office, reading nook, or even extra sleeping space for guests. The renovated kitchen is designed for everyday living and entertaining, with stainless steel appliances, modern finishes, and plenty of storage. The main-level laundry room adds even more convenience and space to stay organized. The primary suite feels like a private retreat, complete with a sitting area that can double as an office, exercise space, or quiet reading corner. The newly renovated primary bath has a spa-like feel, featuring double vanities, an oversized shower, a soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. Guests will feel right at home with a comfortable main-level bedroom and a full bath just steps away. Outdoor living is what truly makes this home special. The wrap-around decks offer endless ways to enjoy the lake-morning coffee with a view, dinner with friends under the stars, or a relaxing soak in the hot tub. Down by the water, you'll love the new dock with a party deck-ideal for swimming, boating, or simply watching the sunset. The shoreline has been upgraded with new riprap for added beauty and erosion protection, and there's even an unfinished space below the home with tons of room for storage or future expansion. With over $150,000 in thoughtful upgrades, this lakefront home is move-in ready and waiting for its next chapter. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a weekend getaway, this is a place where memories are made and lake days never end. Close proximity to everything that Gainesville has to offer.... 15 Minutes to the downtown square, Under 10 minutes to Pelican Pete's, 15 Minutes to 400, 15 minutes to the hospital, 10 Minutes to Publix. Dog friendly neighborhood with daycare and boarding options in the immediate area.
