Under contract-accepting backup offers. Nestled in the back of the highly desirable Turkey Creek community, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of privacy, nature, and convenience. Backing directly to San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park, you'll enjoy peaceful views, abundant wildlife, and frequent visits from deer right in your own backyard—all while being just minutes from shopping, dining, and an easy commute to Gainesville or Alachua. From the moment you arrive, the home's exceptional curb appeal and welcoming presence set the tone. Step inside to discover an open and airy floor plan featuring soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and custom built-in shelving that adds warmth and character to the spacious living area. The living room flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, accented by elegant tray ceilings and hardwood flooring that extends through the dining area and hallway. The well-appointed kitchen shines with beautiful cabinetry, granite countertops, a newer GE refrigerator (2025), and a breakfast bar overlooking the screened lanai and sparkling in-ground saltwater pool. Whether you're entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this space is designed for everyday comfort and enjoyment. The oversized primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a flexible sitting area perfect for a nursery, home office, or reading nook. French doors lead directly to the screened pool lanai, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The luxurious primary bath features a separate garden tub, walk-in shower, and ample space to unwind. Additional highlights include three sets of French doors—two opening to the lanai—an indoor laundry room, newer carpet (2023), custom built-in cabinetry, and a beautiful granite fireplace. The screened pool area provides the perfect setting for year-round Florida living, with a new Pentair VSF 1.5 pool pump installed in 2024 and a Jandy saltwater system added in 2023. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a roof replacement in 2020. Utilities are provided by the City of Alachua for electric, water, sewer, and garbage, with GRU gas service for the furnace and fireplace. Cox internet service is available, with fiber internet access in the area. If you've been searching for a move-in-ready home that offers natural beauty, thoughtful updates, and an unbeatable location, this Turkey Creek gem is one you won't want to miss.
