Welcome home to the Duckpond! You'll love this Move-In-Ready, 2 story, concrete block home, restored to its 1950's charm. With a large side yard and backyard too, you will be pleased with the amount of space you have in the Duckpond. In fact, there is still even more space that can be cleared. (PS-- Also in the backyard, your hens will love their Taj Mahal of chicken coops, The Chick-Inn.)

The oversized, 800-square-foot garage is 'L' shaped and includes a separated workspace area, plus an area with utility sink, washer, dryer, second refrigerator, and shelves for more storage. The size of the garage is ready to become an entire in-law suite or long-term rental, air BnB, studio, office, workshop, etc. Opportunities are endless.

The original hardwood floors have been restored, covering the entire living room, dining area, and primary bedroom. This has been a very well-cared-for home. In the kitchen, the all-wood cabinets feature vintage hardware, plus an extremely well-built kitchen island, movable, with butcher's block countertop and large, woven metal baskets underneath. The big, bright kitchen window faces East, and pours in with beautiful morning light.

The appeal of the Duckpond is its unique construction and mid-century style, and that's what you'll find in the bathroom. The 1950's claw foot tub and the large linen-closet will delight you. The home has instant hot water thanks to the energy-efficient tankless water heater.

You will be pleased to find that the primary bedroom is spacious, with two closets, a stain-glass-light ceiling fan and an abundance of natural light. The secondary bedroom is equipped with an LG mini-split AC unit, so fancy that it reads in Celsius. The central air conditioning running throughout the entire home has been maintained twice a year with Liberty Air.

And don't forget about the Barn-Shed in the back! it has a loft, built-in shelving, a shingled roof, and is in good condition. There's even a covered porch for an entertainment area, or for additional covered parking. Close to downtown, UF & all that Gainesville has to offer, this home is begging you to bring your favorite realtor or contact me so you can see it ASAP.
