Under contract-accepting backup offers. Priced well below comps, this 2517SF home is the ideal candidate for a renovation loan to customize the remaining cosmetic finishes to your exact style. This former Robinshore builder model built in 2001 in the highly sought-after Katelyn Lane neighborhood of Haile Plantation offers a rare opportunity to combine structural peace of mind with personalized design. Significant improvements include a full re-plumb in 2025, a roof replaced in 2019, Plantation shutters throughout, a GEO security system, and a transferable home warranty through December 2027. The oversized laundry room is already equipped with a wine fridge and newer washer and dryer (2021), allowing buyers to focus their renovation budget on aesthetic updates rather than major systems. At this price point, this home is perfectly positioned for a renovation loan with Byron Zonin at CrossCountry Mortgage, giving buyers the flexibility to create a customized home in one of Gainesville's most desirable communities. This thoughtfully designed 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom residence features a well-planned two-way split floor plan with 10-foot ceilings and spacious living areas throughout. An elegant foyer welcomes you into a formal living room with a cozy fireplace, while the adjacent formal dining room showcases crown molding and rich golden oak wood floors, creating a warm and timeless foundation. The kitchen has already been upgraded with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom wood cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry, flowing into a breakfast nook and expansive family room designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The primary suite offers a private retreat with two walk-in closets, a large en-suite bath featuring dual vanities, a jetted tub, walk-in shower, and direct access to the screened porch. Two additional bedrooms are positioned on the opposite side of the home and share a full bathroom, while the front bedroom with adjacent bath and classic brick flooring provides flexibility as an office, guest suite, or flex space. Outdoor living is equally appealing with a large screened porch overlooking a private backyard with no direct rear neighbors. The extended patio with fire pit creates an inviting setting for gatherings, while enhanced front landscaping adds to the home's curb appeal. Located just 60 yards from Lawton Chiles Elementary School and minutes to Haile Village Center, the weekly farmers market, Publix at Haile Market Square, and miles of walking and biking trails, this home offers both convenience and lifestyle. Optional memberships to the Haile Plantation golf course, pool, tennis courts, and clubhouse further enhance the community experience. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a well-maintained home with major upgrades already completed and the ability to tailor the finishes to your vision in one of Gainesville's premier neighborhoods.
