About this home
Tucked into the highly sought-after Golfview neighborhood, just steps from the University of Florida Golf Course and within easy walking distance to campus, this cherished home offers a rare blend of character, history, and opportunity. Lovingly held in the same family for over 60 years, it tells a story you can feel the moment you walk through the door.
Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, complemented by original wood floors that run throughout the home, adding warmth and timeless appeal. Tall ceilings enhance the sense of space, while the oversized sunroom invites natural light and creates the perfect setting for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
One of the home’s most distinctive features is its custom wallpaper in the kitchen and hallway—an extraordinary collection of vintage beer labels curated by the original owner, preserved beautifully over decades as a truly one-of-a-kind conversation piece.
The property itself is equally special. The current owner and neighboring property thoughtfully divided the adjoining land, resulting in an oversized lot that offers both privacy and flexibility. With city approval, there is potential to add an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), opening the door for rental income, a guest house, or multigenerational living.
Complete with a one-car garage and situated in a location that combines charm, convenience, and long-term value, this home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history while imagining its next chapter....
