Standing on a large lot within the quiet neighborhood of Twin Pines, this picture-perfect Mid-Century Modern style home offers a highly convenient location and lots of curb appeal. Designed and built for the 1964 Gainesville Parade of Homes, the home itself features concrete block split-level construction that has been lovingly updated and maintained throughout the years. Offering a total of 4-bedrooms and 2.5-baths, the interiors of the home features an open floor plan with 18x36" porcelain tile flooring, vaulted ceilings, and lots of natural light throughout. The open kitchen is well-equipped for cooking and hosting alike, with custom European-style sapele cabinets, quartz countertops, glass-tile backsplash, stainless Kitchen Aid appliances, and large breakfast bar that overlooks the family room. An eye-catching floor-to-ceiling wood burning fireplace serves as the focal point in the family room and is flanked by two large windows overlooking the outside greenery. All bedrooms provide plenty of space, but the master suite is especially notable with a walk-in closet, large windows, a set of sliding glass doors out to a private patio, and a private en-suite complete with a sunken tub / shower combo. For those who enjoy taking in the Central Florida sunshine, this property provides ample opportunity to do so with its screen-enclosed atrium and lanai that overlooks a spacious concrete patio and the surrounding landscaping. A totally private outdoor shower is also present on the side of the home and is accessible via the guest bath, allowing you the unique opportunity to enjoy sunshine and birdsong as you shower. A variety of upgrades have been made throughout the home, including a metal roof and gas water heater in 2014, new HVAC as of 2016, insulated windows, fiberglass exterior doors, and glass sliders as of 2018. A transfer switch is installed and a generator is included, and the home provides plenty of space for vehicles with a 2-car attached side-entry garage. Royal Park Creek borders the side of the property, and the lot itself backs up to acres of neighboring woods for added privacy (and the occasional visit by local deer!). Those looking to be near the University of Florida, shopping, dining, hospitals, and I-75 will be perfectly at home in this stunning property, which offers a central NW Gainesville location!
