About This Home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. **SELLER NOW OFFERING 5,000 TOWARDS BUYER'S CLOSING COSTS!!** Beautiful and Spacious, 2 bed / 2 bath Townhome in Rockwood Villas!
The bright living/dining space features tall ceilings, a designated dining area, a fully equipped kitchen that opens to the living area, and direct access to the rear screened patio via sliding glass doors. The kitchen has upgraded cabinets, upgraded countertops, and newer stainless steel appliances including an over-the-range microwave, stove, and dishwasher.
The second floor offers a private bedroom, separate from the common living space, with an ensuite bathroom and a spacious bonus room that can be used as an office, nursery, or walk-in closet. The rear screened patio is a versatile space that overlooks green common areas and includes a spacious outdoor laundry room.
With tile in the living areas and vinyl plank and laminate flooring in the bedrooms, this property offers easy maintenance and upkeep. Additional upgrades include a newer AC (2022) and a full re-plumb of the house (2025), providing peace of mind for years to come.
One of Gainesville's most popular communities, Rockwood Villas offers a tranquil lifestyle surrounded by mature landscaping and a lush tree canopy, while being close to many stores and amenities including The Oaks Mall, the University of Florida, and shopping centers like Butler Plaza and Celebration Pointe. It is also on a direct bus route to UF and a short commute to Santa Fe College.
Community amenities include two pools, tennis and volleyball courts, and a community clubhouse. Additionally, this townhome is a single-family attached property (PUD), not a condo—which means it may qualify for FHA, VA, and Conventional financing, and may not require condo and/or HOA approval by the lender.
This property has been lovingly cared for and is ready for its new owner to make it their own!
