An extraordinary natural oasis in the center of Gainesville! This cedar-sided, three-story, 1979-build, single-family home is nestled within a nearly half-acre wooded lot on a hill above Wilshire Trails Park. It's located within walking distance of Gainesville High School, Centennial Arts Academy (elementary school), Lake Lanier, Longwood Park and its public tennis courts, Brenau University, and Gainesville's Downtown Square.
The home's interior is newly renovated (2026) and features faux hardwood and luxury vinyl flooring throughout 10 rooms, including three bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. That includes 1,280 square feet on the first and second floors and 640 square feet in the south-facing, finished half-basement, the walls of which are uniquely cedar-sided like the external siding on the house. The large rear deck, which spans the full length of the house, looks out on a wooded back yard that is surrounded by a fence.
The first floor features a living area with a gas-log fireplace, a dining area, a half-bathroom, and a kitchen with an electric range, a microwave, a French-door refrigerator/freezer, and a dishwasher.
On the second floor, the master bedroom has an attached bathroom with a walk-in shower and the guest or child's bedroom is adjacent to its own bathroom containing a tub-shower combo. The washer and dryer are conveniently located off the hallway between the master and guest bedrooms.
The Navien gas-powered water heater is tankless (on-demand), providing less expensive and endless hot water for the entire family. The newly-installed (May 2026), top-of-the-line Carrier Infinity HVAC system also helps to keep your fuel and energy expenses in check while allowing you to adjust the room temperature through a wall panel and/or phone app.
Other people drive tens of miles just to visit the relaxing wooded parks and other recreational attractions that are located right outside your new home--a true gem of nature located in the heart of the city of Gainesville.
