Northeast Neighbors isn’t a cookie-cutter community
The Northeast Neighbors community has a mix of older and newer homes close to parks and retail. The area borders downtown and other established communities, like the historic Duckpond. "Northeast Neighbors isn’t your cookie-cutter type of neighborhood," says Barbara Miller, the broker and owner of Miller Real Estate, who has over 20 years of selling experience. “The northeast [part of Gainesville] is where many of the city's historic homes are located,” Miller says. Most residences were constructed between 1900 to 1960. The housing market has a handful of residences from the 21st century, some from the last five years. “Originally, the area had a lot of UF [University of Florida] professors wanting to be close to the university,” Miller says. “Now it’s a unique part of town that covers a wide demographic.”
Northeast Neighbors is less than a mile from Downtown Gainesville.
