Fantastic Mid-Century Atomic Ranch home in NW Gainesville's Florida Park. Built in 1955 and designed by Dorothy Haythorne for her parents, no expense was spared or detail overlooked in this well maintained 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom brick home. Located on an oversized, corner lot with .48 acres. This location can't be beat, less than a mile to the University of Florida. Florida Park is a charming neighborhood of hills, tree lined streets, sidewalks, meandering creeks and yet central to downtown, campus, area shops and restaurants and nearby Alfred A. Ring Park. From the covered front porch, you enter the foyer with vintage planter and gorgeous wood floors. The designer was ahead of her times with a bright and open floor plan, generously sized rooms and large picture windows. Updated window coverings throughout. The Great Room is open to the dining area and affords great views of the beautiful canopy of oaks. A pair of sliding pocket doors separate the dining area and Florida Room. This room has cracked tile floors, wood paneling and tongue and groove wood ceiling. There are built-ins and access to the carport or backyard. To the left of the dining area is the kitchen with breakfast nook, wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances and new stainless steel double sink. There is also a reverse osmosis water filtration system and separate dispenser at the sink. There are beautiful views of the large rear fenced yard and brick patio. Down the main hall to the left of the foyer are two guest bedrooms. They have corner windows, updated ceiling fans and large cedar-lined closets and beautifully restored wood floors. The guest bathroom has pink vintage tile, built-in storage and is in excellent condition. The hall has a cedar lined storage closet too. The Primary Bedroom has double cedar-lined closets and a private bathroom with vintage tile, shower, updated fixtures and period lighting. The HVAC and gas furnace are 2000. The gas water heater is 2020. Roof is 2018. Home includes a 1 year Home Warranty. Off the Florida Room is the attached 2 car, side entry carport. There is a half bathroom and large storage closet. The rear yard has a brick patio and is low maintenance with flowering shrubs, iris and those stunning oak trees. Plenty of room for a pool or in-law suite. HOA is voluntary. Zoned for Beatrice Parker Elementary, Westwood Middle and Gainesville High Schools.
