About This Property
Virtually Staged. NEW ROOF to be installed prior to closing. Still time to pick the shingle color! Welcome to this well-maintained Paul McArthur-built 3-bedroom, 3-bath home in desirable Haile Market Square, offering an exceptional combination of space, privacy, and pedestrian friendly access to the community shopping center. Perfectly situated on the outside curve of two lightly traveled streets, this property features an oversized backyard and a uniquely private rear setting. The home backs to a 50-foot common area buffer, with estate-sized properties of approximately 3 to 5 acres beyond, providing additional separation and privacy rarely found in the neighborhood. The HOA also maintains the front yard, adding to the home's low-maintenance appeal. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors, high ceilings with tray details, and generous living spaces create an inviting atmosphere. The thoughtful three-way split bedroom plan provides privacy for everyone. One guest bedroom includes its own en suite bathroom, making it ideal for guests, family members, or a private home office. The spacious primary suite features a large walk-in closet, while the primary bathroom offers an oversized garden tub and separate large walk-in shower. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the kitchen includes double ovens, a glass cooktop, center island, and a large secondary pantry offering exceptional storage for small appliances, cookware, serving pieces, and other kitchen essentials. Enjoy the convenience of being within walking distance of Publix, Uppercrust, UF Health Family Medicine, and numerous additional shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. The home is also just a short distance from the Gary Player-designed Hawkstone Country Club and charming Haile Village Center, known for its shopping, dining, and popular Saturday morning farmers market. Butler Plaza, the University of Florida, UF Health Shands Hospital, and the Malcolm Randall VA Medical Center are all just a short drive away. With flexible living spaces, an oversized backyard, a 21 foot deep 2 car garage, a private buffered rear setting, and exceptional access to neighborhood amenities and Gainesville's major employment and medical centers, this Haile Market Square home offers a rare combination of features in one of Gainesville's most desirable communities.
