Where else can you enjoy 2+ acres, mature trees, peaceful surroundings and a true country-living feel while being approximately 15 minutes from the University of Florida, UF Health Shands, VA and HCA Florida North Florida Hospital? Welcome to the highly desirable Meadows of Kanapaha—a unique “farmette”-style community in SW Gainesville offering the space and tranquility of country living with the conveniences of the city right at your fingertips. Situated on a large cul-de-sac homesite surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty, this property offers privacy, minimal traffic and plenty of room to breathe. With more than 2 acres, there’s space to garden, create your own hobby farm, accommodate horses, or explore the possibility of adding an accessory dwelling unit or guest house. Step inside and one of the first things you’ll notice is the ABUNDANCE OF NATURAL LIGHT. Recently replaced windows and glass doors allow sunshine to pour into the home, creating a bright, airy and welcoming atmosphere throughout. The open-concept floor plan enhances that feeling even more, while glass doors connect the living space to the brand-new back deck—perfect for relaxing, entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The thoughtfully designed layout features two guest bedrooms and a shared bathroom downstairs, while the upstairs primary suite provides a private retreat of its own. The home has also been well maintained and thoughtfully updated, including a NEW ROOF (2022), HVAC (2023), water heater (2022), beautifully renovated bathrooms (2022 & 2025), exterior paint (2018), and a NEW BACK DECK (2026). The versatile garage offers even more possibilities. It features an insulated garage door, screen enclosure and its own mini-split HVAC for a climate controlled space. Use it as a traditional garage, home gym, playroom, hobby space or additional flex area. And another bonus—NO GRU! Enjoy the benefit of Clay Electric.
