This is the kind of North Florida living people fall in love with. ~~~
Arriving here feels like an event. Set on 13 acres of rolling lawns and centuries-old oaks, the estate opens with a private gated entrance and a winding, tree-shaded drive. At its end, a timeless French manor comes into view, embodying European sophistication, architectural authenticity, and refined luxury. The soft white stucco façade and steep gabled roof lend a storybook charm, with clean lines and classic proportions that are graceful in every light. The iron-gated front courtyard is pure French elegance, the perfect spot to pause and take in the park-like grounds before stepping through the arched front door, where the craftsmanship continues inside. ~ ~ ~ ~
Warmth and modern finish sit easily together throughout the home. Light pours into the open living area, where a gorgeous fireplace serves as a focal point the moment you enter. From there, the space flows easily into the dining room and on to the kitchen and study. The study is a quiet, beautifully appointed space for working from home, reading, or simply stepping away for a moment, close enough to feel connected yet set apart for focus. The chef’s kitchen is truly a showpiece. Fully updated, it pairs premium stainless appliances and stone counters with custom cabinetry and a generous center island that naturally draws everyone together. A large walk-in pantry keeps everything organized and out of sight, making this kitchen as practical for everyday cooking as it is spectacular for entertaining. Just beyond, a renovated laundry and mudroom with ample counter space and built-in storage keeps daily life running smoothly. ~ ~ ~ ~
The first-floor primary suite is a serene retreat, with its own fireplace, quiet views, and French doors that lead to the grounds. The en suite bath includes dual vanities, a soaking tub, a Roman walk-in spa shower, and a well-designed walk-in closet. The secondary bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged for both privacy and connection. Two bedrooms share a bath and a cozy reading nook, while a separate guest wing is ideal for multi-generational living, long-term guests, or as a private studio. The guest wing features another bedroom, a stylishly remodeled bath, a kitchenette, a generous living area, and an oversized bonus/flex room, ideal for a 5th bedroom, home gym, media room, or creative space. ~~~
Step outside, and the estate reveals its quieter luxuries.The screened patio extends the living space outdoors, with room to dine, relax, and gather in every season. Its centerpiece is a striking outdoor fireplace that commands attention, perfect for cool North Florida evenings, holiday gatherings, or a quiet glass of wine at sunset. Beyond the screened lanai, the grounds unfold in sweeping greenery and dappled shade, with live oaks standing sentinel over the landscape. Take a morning walk around the aerated pond and fountain, picnic beneath the oaks, or simply enjoy the tranquility that only this much land can offer. An outbuilding supports storage and farming, or could be adapted for future equestrian use, and new fencing encloses the full perimeter. The home has been meticulously updated and maintained, with a new roof, new HVAC systems and water heaters, and an epoxy-floored three-car garage that includes a separate workspace. ~ ~ ~ ~
Private and peaceful, yet an easy drive to Newberry, Gainesville, the University of Florida, and the area's museums and restaurants and recreation!
