1938 NW 7th Ln, Gainesville, FL 32603

Beautiful historic Cape Cod Colonial located just 7 blocks from the University of Florida. The first owner was the President of the UF student body in 1929. The second (current) owner was Mayor of Gainesville and a City Commissioner for a total of 12 years, through 2010. HVAC new in 2005; hot water heater new in 2009; architectural shingle roof replaced in April 2015, flat roof replaced in 2011. Some replumbing has been done. Very energy efficient home, ceiling insulated in April 2015. Nice mature landscaping, with an in-ground irrigation system. Re-sodding completed in 2011. By accurately measuring each room (not going by old public records) we've determined that the house is 2,201 sq ft heated and cooled, with a 229 sq ft garage and a 146 sq ft screened side porch. We moved in mid 2014 and this home has not yet been listed. Feel free to call if that timeframe works or you are extremely interested. We are only 7 blocks from UF's football stadium and less than a block from one of the best elementary schools in town. This is an ideal home for a family with young kids and job(s) at UF -- a five minute bike ride! Neighborhood Description This is a very positive, open, and diverse neighborhood. Very UF-oriented, with many faculty, staff, and students in the area. JJ Finley Elementary is less than a block away and is one of the best schools in town, and hosts the international program, so kids from all over the world will enhance your child's educational experience.
