Introducing a new opportunity in the City of Gainesville: a charming cottage featuring an unparalleled backyard botanical sanctuary. This property is being offered for the first time ever, having been well-maintained by one family since its construction. This ranch style home exudes a mid-century feel with its large windows that flood the interior with natural light. It includes a spacious kitchen, both formal and casual dining rooms, a den/office with wood paneling, a living room featuring a brick gas-log fireplace, and enclosed sun porch, two bedrooms and one bathroom on the main floor. Additionally, it boasts a custom oversized wood deck, a partially finished basement with a second bathroom and ample storage. The owner is a Master Gardener and has transformed the yard into an outdoor living paradise, complete with ponds, tiers of hybrid trees and shrubs, walking trails, perennials and annuals and multiple venues for sitting to enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. This property is ideal for anyone seeking close proximity to downtown, substantial privacy, a well-maintained home and a picturesque garden.
