Under contract-accepting backup offers. One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Standing on a peaceful corner lot in southwest Gainesville and surrounded by manicured landscaping, this lovingly maintained one-owner home has so much to offer! Hand scraped engineered hardwood floors and high ceilings welcome you upon entering the foyer. To the right, you’ll find a light filled study with built in bookcases and French doors. A formal dining area on the left is open to a specious living room with a lighted tray ceiling and a gas fireplace. Continuing to the right, the sprawling primary suite is a retreat from the world you’ll look forward to daily. Cathedral ceilings, plantation shutters, lanai access, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious bathroom with a brand new (never used) large shower and jetted soaking tub make this a perfect space to recharge after a long day. The beautiful kitchen boasts 42†solid wood cabinetry and new stainless appliances, and the breakfast area is a wonderful place to start the day. The real highlight of this home, however, begins when you step out into the stunning oasis of a garden that begins with the covered lanai, pergola, and open terrace overlooking a carefully curated collection of mature Camellias, Azaleas, Japanese Magnolias, Hydrangeas, and Crepe Myrtles in varying shades of pink, white, red, and purple - all gently shaded by a massive century old Live Oak. Something is always blooming. The lanai also features built in speakers and a natural gas connection for a grill. The split floor plan also includes two comfortable secondary bedrooms, a generous shared bathroom with an oversized vanity, and a laundry room with cabinetry and a sink. In the two car garage, you’ll find drop down stair access to the attic with plywood floors for plenty of storage. Garison Way amenities include a community pool, a dog park, and landscaped common areas with a great location offering convenient access to shopping and dining options, North Florida Regional, VA, and Shands hospitals, I-75, Santa Fe College, and the University of Florida!
