Exactly What You Were Looking For: Best Location, Comfort, Full Kitchen, Parking
Summary:
Live in the heart of downtown Gainesville! Walkable to UF and an easy commute to Shands, just a mile away. With close proximity to restaurants, cafes, shops, and any other local hot spots, this modern two-bedroom home is the perfect lively retreat.
Please note that the photos pictured are for Townhome 2. This townhome will be prepared and designed to a similar standard.
The Space:
The open-concept space feels like a true home base: the comfortable living room with plush seating, a large 75-inch smart TV, and a Murphy bed flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area. With granite countertops and a fully stocked setup for home cooking, the space is designed to provide the comfort and functionality of your own home throughout your stay. The two-bedroom setup features a king and a queen bed, offering premium comfort and flexibility for roommates, families, or traveling professionals. Each bedroom also has its own smart TV (65- and 50-inch) and full bathroom, so everyone can unwind on their own schedule. And if you're working remotely or studying, you'll love the dedicated workspace with a spacious office desk and monitor. All of art pieces found throughout the house are by local Gainesville artists, and most were procured from the Artisan's Guild Gallery, immersing you immediately in Gator Country culture.
Guest Access:
You'll have full access to your townhouse unit, including a private, step-free, accessible entrance from the parking lot and the street. Inside, you'll have access to two private bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom and smart TV. Also included is a living room with a Murphy bed, a half bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a dining area perfect for connecting over a shared meal. Enjoy amenities like high-speed Wi-Fi, central air conditioning, an in-unit washer and dryer, and complimentary parking (for the first vehicle) conveniently located right outside your door.
The Neighborhood:
Located just off University Avenue in downtown Gainesville, this townhouse offers an unbeatable location adjacent to the UF campus and only about one mile from UF Health Shands. It is also within walking distance of cafes, restaurants, and nightlife. The area seamlessly blends residential side streets with an urban feel, creating a bike-friendly, walkable terrain. We’ve curated the space to ensure convenience and easy daily living for our guests, even during the busiest UF event weekends.
