Welcome to Raintree, one of Gainesville's most established and centrally located neighborhoods--just minutes from shopping, dining, the University of Florida, and top-rated schools. Situated on a generous 0.43-acre lot, this 2,611-square-foot pool home offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a spacious screened lanai, all surrounded by a beautifully fenced backyard with mature landscaping. As you enter through the double solid wood front doors, you're welcomed by a gracious foyer that opens to a formal living and dining area to the right. Straight ahead, a striking natural stone gas fireplace anchors the expansive family room, which flows seamlessly into the eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances, vaulted ceilings, and skylights that fill the space with natural light. Designed for both comfort and accessibility, the home features no carpet throughout and was originally built with handicap-accessible elements, including a garage ramp for easy entry. Four sets of sliding glass doors create a strong indoor-outdoor connection, bringing in abundant light and offering direct access to the pool and lanai. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with vaulted ceilings, private pool access, a large walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom featuring dual sinks, generous cabinetry, and a spacious walk-in shower with grab bars and a built-in bench. The two additional bedrooms are well-appointed, each with access to their own bathroom--one with a tub/shower combination and the other with a walk-in shower. Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof (2022) and a resurfaced (re-marcited) pool (2023)bined with its functional layout, accessibility features, and prime location, this home offers a rare opportunity in the heart of Gainesville.
