Sugarfoot Home for Sale

Surrounded by nature, Gainesville's Sugarfoot neighborhood was developed in the 1950s. It includes subdivisions such as Englewood, Fletcher Heights, Anglewood, Gwynn Oaks and Holly Forest, which all feature ranch-style and split-level homes from the 1950s to the 1970s. Many have midcentury modern influences, attached garages and shaded front yards. Some homes are located within a floodplain, which can affect insurance rates. Students attend highly rated schools, including Littlewood Elementary School, Westwood Middle School and Gainesville High School. The neighborhood is near scenic outdoor areas, with John Mahon Nature Park to the north and the 79-acre Green Acres Park to the south, which offers trails, a community garden, and outdoor exercise equipment. Clear Lake Nature Park and the Sugarfoot Prairie Conservation Area provide additional hiking and biking opportunities. Nearby amenities include the Royal Park Plaza shopping center, Westgate Regency Shopping Center and popular dining spots like Mildred's Big City Food. Sugarfoot is conveniently located near major thoroughfares, with Newberry Road and University Avenue providing easy access to the rest of the city. Bus stops line Newberry Road, too. UF Health Shands and HCA North Florida Hospital are about 3 miles away.
