Property Description
Known for its established charm and exceptional convenience, Mason Manor offers easy access to schools, employment centers, nature trails, everyday amenities, and the ability to walk to your favorite sporting events at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Natural light fills the spacious open-concept layout where the living, dining, and flex spaces flow seamlessly together for everyday living and entertaining. Oversized double-pane windows, plantation shutters, updated lighting, and warm finishes create a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout.
The kitchen blends style and functionality with quartz countertops, Whirlpool appliances, and timeless mid-century-inspired cabinetry. Interior features include real oak hardwood flooring, terrazzo accents, tile flooring, updated lighting, 2-inch faux wood blinds, and a spacious indoor laundry and utility room (not included in the sq ft) with additional storage and private side-entry access.
Approximately $30,000 in recent improvements have already been completed for the next owner, including fresh interior and exterior paint, professional pressure washing, deep-cleaned flooring and tile surfaces, updated lighting with added recessed can lights, a new Whirlpool glass cooktop, updated locks, additional smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, updated ceiling fans, new bifold closet doors, and a brand-new water heater in 2026. Additional major investments include a full HVAC replacement and electrical panel upgrade in 2023, while the durable metal roof was installed in 2009.
Both bathrooms have been tastefully renovated with quality tile work, updated cabinetry, and granite countertops. The flexible floor plan and spacious secondary bedrooms offer guest, office, or rental-income potential, making the property attractive to owner-occupants, parents of university alumni, and investors seeking long-term value.
Outside, the expansive .29-acre lot features a fully fenced backyard with extra-tall chain-link fencing, a large side gate designed for boat or trailer access, fresh landscaping, gutters, and a powered storage shed ideal for a workshop, home office, fitness space, or creative studio. A double carport and extended paved driveway provide abundant parking for vehicles, recreational equipment, and guests.
Nature lovers will appreciate being moments from Loblolly Woods Nature Park, a scenic 159-acre preserve with walking trails and boardwalks, while the home's central location places you near everything Gainesville has to present.
With approximately $30,000 in recent improvements, major mechanical updates already completed, a large fenced lot, and a premier location near UF and UF Health, this home delivers exceptional value in today's market.
