Welcome to the sweetest house you've seen in a while! This 1948 home in a quiet yet convenient location in NW Gainesville was purchased and lovingly restored in 2021 making it a rare turn-key opportunity for a fully furnished vintage home. With beautiful original wood floors, wood cabinetry, and classic kitchen and bathroom tiles, the goal of this home restoration was to bring it up to date while preserving the charm that is often erased with a flip. As you walk up to the front door, you will admire the original tile porch and screen door which is perfect on a cooler day. Upon entering the home, the first room currently functions as a reading room or office and is flooded with natural light from the surrounding windows. The main room has an adorable built-in storage/display case with a set of windows overlooking the large front yard and mature trees. A new floor was installed in the kitchen with a super fun design that ties the room together with the time period. The kitchen has a new microwave, refrigerator, and oven, with a dining area overlooking the backyard. There are two bedrooms, each with original wood floors, new paint, new ceiling fans, and new drapes. The bathroom has classic tile, a shower/tub combo, a new toilet, and a new sink. There is a detached one-car garage with a washer and dryer, and an automatic garage door that opens to the rear alley. The backyard is fully fenced with a white picket fence. In 2021 the following improvements were made to the home: new roof, exterior wood repair and paint, re-pipe of the water supply lines, new toilet and bathroom sink, electrical upgrades, compete new duct work for HVAC, white rock driveway installed, crawlspace professionally enclosed, interior of home repainted, new kitchen appliances, Nest and smart lock installed, new washing machine, landscaping, new screen door; the gas hot water heater was replaced in 2019. There is an option to purchase the home fully furnished. This is a true charmer, and we hope to find a new owner who will protect the character of this home while finding joy in its beauty and simplicity.
