This beautiful, classic, well-maintained brick-and-concrete-block home is in the highly sought-after Henderson Heights area of Forest Ridge, one of Gainesville’s most desirable neighborhoods. An inviting covered front porch greets you at this charming residence, which features 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, and multiple gathering spaces. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a new roof installed in December 2024 with a transferable warranty for the new owner; repiping of the water supply lines in November 2024—including the service line from the city water meter to the home; and a new water heater. Inside, you'll find all-new, beautiful carpeting in the bedrooms, along with fresh interior paint throughout the home. The remodeled eat-in kitchen features quartz countertops, while the updated primary bathroom offers an easy-access roll-in shower. The home boasts spacious living areas, including a formal living room and separate dining room, accented by beautiful wood parquet flooring. A comfortable family room features wood floors, built-in bookcases, and a cozy brick fireplace with a hearth. Adjacent to the family room is a huge enclosed screened porch overlooking the expansive, nearly half-acre fenced backyard. Outdoor amenities include a 13' x 17' workshop/storage building and an additional 5' x 7' storage shed, providing ample space for hobbies, tools, and equipment. Nestled in a serene setting with no HOA, this property offers exceptional convenience and lifestyle appeal. Enjoy an easy bike ride to the University of Florida or take a short walk to Rockwood Park, which connects to Alfred Ring Park, known for its picturesque creek, scenic nature trails, and beautiful natural surroundings.
