Welcome to one of the most iconic homes in Gainesville’s beloved Duckpond neighborhood. Built in 1937, this 5-bedroom, 3 full + 2 half bath Tudor-style home sits on a beautifully oversized .37-acre lot with a pool, a double-height screened porch, and a fully equipped in-law suite. Historic details like oak floors, wood-framed windows, crown molding, and built-ins are everywhere you look—and the vibe is timeless. Downstairs, the great room features a cozy fireplace and flows into a generous dining area and a full guest suite. The kitchen is spacious and updated with wood cabinetry, granite counters, stainless appliances, induction cooktop, and plenty of room to gather. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms—one with its own half bath—and a full hall bath, keeping the layout functional and flexible. Step out back and you’ll fall in love with the screened porch overlooking the private yard and pool—space that’s hard to find this close to downtown. Tucked just off the porch is a full in-law suite with its own entrance, kitchen, living space, bathroom, laundry, and upstairs sleeping loft. The HVAC is zoned across three systems. The yard is filled with mature oaks, citrus trees, flowering shrubs, and plenty of space to breathe. Bonus: This home is listed below the average price per square foot for Duckpond—offering instant equity in one of Gainesville’s most loved historic neighborhoods. Duckpond is charm-core Gainesville: think front porch culture, trick-or-treating, and neighbors who wave. You’re walking distance to Depot Park, downtown shops, restaurants, and theaters—just two miles from UF.
