    This is your opportunity to buy more than a home but a lifestyle! On the corner of Dixon Drive and Bradford Street, within walking distance of the Gainesville square, sits a Grande Dame you have to see to believe. Filled with history and endless stories of lives well-lived, this immaculately-kept home has character and extras that can’t be replicated. The 5-bedroom, 4 ½ bathroom home with over 5,000 square feet of living space features original hardwood floors, custom molding throughout, a wood-burning fireplace, the primary suite on the main level, and a studio kitchen in the finished basement, where there are also a bedroom and a half bathroom, and space to add an additional full bathroom. Large closets, a renovated kitchen, formal dining and living rooms, and a cozy den make for both comfortable and gracious living. Like the home, the 1.5 acre lot and amenities need to be experienced in person. The saltwater pool with diving board and slide, pool house with two full bathrooms, open-air seating area and fully functioning kitchen, and additional covered area for seating feels like your own private club. Beyond the pool is a beautifully landscaped garden with a winding path, mature trees and shrubs, and room to roam. The circular driveway and detached garage with an abundance of storage bring a sense of ease to welcoming guests and hosting gatherings of all sizes and types.
