Property Description

Tucked along a peaceful country road where deer and wild turkeys often wander, this charming 2 Bed/2 Bath farmhouse sits atop a gentle hill surrounded by 5 Acres of open pastures and endless skies. From sunrise to sunset, the panoramic views are nothing short of breathtaking — the perfect setting for anyone craving tranquility and wide-open space. It’s not uncommon to spot cattle and sheep grazing in the nearby fields, adding to the peaceful escape. Recently refreshed with brand-new exterior paint, this home blends rustic character with thoughtful modern upgrades. The kitchen features a new microwave, updated plumbing, a stylish pendant light over the sink, and convenient pull-out cabinet drawers for easy organization. Enjoy the comfort of an on-demand water heater and the efficiency of Clay Electric utilities, well, and septic — keeping monthly costs low while maintaining modern convenience. Inside, the spacious living area is anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cool Florida evenings. The primary suite offers a large walk-in closet and a beautifully updated bath, while the rest of the home features easy-care flooring throughout —No Carpet! Step outside to a screened-in back porch that overlooks rolling landscapes, ideal for morning coffee, golden-hour sunsets, or simply soaking in the tranquil surroundings. The property is as functional as it is beautiful, with two carports (one with a concrete floor and attached workshop), a fire pit area, and a private electric and solar-powered entry gate shared with one neighbor. For those who love to garden or grow their own food, the property includes a mini orchard with Persian lime, Key lime, tangerine, Bearss lemon, and calamondin trees, as well as banana trees and blueberry bushes — your own backyard harvest ready to enjoy. Practical updates include a New AC installed in 2022 and New Metal Roof- 2013, giving peace of mind for years to come. Nestled between Gainesville and Alachua, this hilltop retreat offers the best of both worlds: the quiet of country living with the convenience of town just minutes away.
