Gainesville Cotton Mill Village
20th-century duplexes at affordable prices in quiet former mill suburb
Most of the original mill village duplexes from the early 20th century were renovated into single-family houses. Many have been renovated and updated with more contemporary appliances and other features. A handful of manufactured and shotgun-style houses are also available in the neighborhood. Area homes typically feature a modest yard and covered front porch where residents can enjoy the fresh air. The average home price in the village is lower than the Gainesville and national average home prices. Village homes typically range from $75,000 to $150,000 for ranch-style and manufactured houses, and $100,000 to $280,000 for renovated duplexes.Residents are a short distance from Downtown Gainesville and major roadways
