Located in the heart of Gainesville and surrounded by mature trees, this beautifully restored home was designed by preeminent mid-century modern architect Harry Merritt. The striking contrast of dark redwood and light Ocala block highlights this home's natural beauty and is a classic example of Merritt's influential architectural vision. With Merritt's guidance, the home was meticulously restored from 2013 to 2015. The process involved upgrading many integral features, including new roof, heating and cooling system, and energy-efficient Anderson windows and doors throughout. The kitchen was remodeled with new appliances, countertops, rectified porcelain tile flooring, and Louis Poulson fixtures. The living space has new tongue-and-groove cypress floors and a custom travertine fireplace and hearth. The bathrooms were also completely remodeled and upgraded. In total, the home has 2,578 sq. ft. of living space, a large master suite on the main level, 2 guest bedrooms and a living room on the lower level, and 3 full baths. A large outdoor deck was also added during the renovation offering beautiful views of the nearly one-acre property that overlooks Possum Creek Preserve and features fruit trees and an agave garden.
