Cute as a button and tucked into the conveniently located community of Tower24, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,455 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with architectural details you don't often find at this size. Built in 2013, the home welcomes you with a classic covered front porch and an attractive streetscape where the garage and driveway are discreetly tucked behind the home with rear-alley access. Inside, high ceilings and an open-concept layout create a bright, spacious feel, while crown molding and a beautiful coffered ceiling over the dining area add character and dimension. The kitchen opens to the main living and dining spaces and features white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, breakfast bar seating and pendant lighting. Wood-look laminate and tile flooring run throughout the home with no carpet. The split-bedroom floor plan provides added privacy, with the spacious primary suite set apart from the secondary bedrooms. Just off the primary bedroom, glass French doors open to a sun-filled Florida room/sitting room surrounded by windows-a charming bonus space perfect for a reading nook, home office or quiet retreat. The primary bath features dual vanities, a large tiled walk-in shower with built-in bench and niche, and generous closet space. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath with a tiled tub/shower complete the interior. Outside, one of the home's most unique features is the private fenced courtyard nestled between the house and two-car garage. A covered breezeway connects the two, creating a sheltered transition while leaving plenty of grassy space to enjoy outdoors. There's even a doggy door already in place for four-legged family members! The rear-alley-access garage keeps vehicles and the driveway out of sight from the front of the home, preserving its charming cottage-style curb appeal. Situated on a low-maintenance 0.08-acre homesite, this Tower24 home combines character, functionality and a super-convenient Gainesville location in one adorable package.
