Move-in ready and beautifully designed, this four-bedroom, three-bath home plus an office is located in Madera-Gainesville's premier green community, just 1.5 miles from the University of Florida. Exceptional curb appeal welcomes you to this two-story home accented by a charming balcony. Step into the foyer and you're greeted by a dramatic custom staircase featuring wood treads and a wrought-iron railing. To the right of the foyer is a versatile flex room that can serve as an office, a music room, or an additional sitting area. Continue down the hallway where you'll find an elegant dining room highlighted by a beautiful stained-glass chandelier. The kitchen is well-appointed with stainless steel appliances, including a Capital 48-inch Grand Chef gas range, granite countertops, solid wood cherry cabinetry, an instant hot water dispenser, and a walk-in pantry. There is generous counter space, a stainless steel double sink, and a convenient pass-through to the dining room. The kitchen opens to the family room featuring impressive 22-foot ceilings and vertical triple picture windows that fill the space with natural light. A striking double-sided ceiling fan--almost a work of art--adds a dramatic focal point while helping cool both the downstairs and upstairs living areas. Between the kitchen and family room, French doors lead to a screened porch that creates seamless Florida indoor-outdoor living and overlooks the private, fully fenced backyard. Also on the main floor is a guest bedroom and full bath-perfectly positioned for visitors-along with a well-sized laundry room. Upstairs you'll find the primary suite featuring an en-suite bathroom with granite countertops, dual sinks, a makeup vanity, jetted tub, separate walk-in shower, private water closet, and two custom-designed walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms share a large, well-appointed full bath. The home features an oversized two car garage with an epoxy-finished floor, providing ample room for vehicles as well as additional storage. The Madera neighborhood was designed with the idea that people and nature can coexist-offering a peaceful, sustainable lifestyle in the heart of Gainesville. Located less than a five minute drive from Expressions Learning Arts Academy, which is top ranked in Alachua County Public Schools.
