Welcome to Sugarfoot, Gainesville's premier mid-century, canopied neighborhood! Originally built as a peaceful haven close to campus for UF professors, this desirable area is now home to a vibrant mix of artists, academics, families, and retirees. Enjoy the convenience of walking to nearby shopping and dining, with North Florida Regional Hospital and the Oaks Mall just a short drive west on Newberry Road. The home features 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths, complemented by a bright living room, a separate dining room, a window-lined Florida room, and an eat-in kitchen. Classic character shines throughout, including beautifully preserved original terrazzo floors, traditional bathroom tiles, and vintage fixtures. Step outside to your own private oasis: a huge sparkling pool with an adjacent full bath, set against a spacious yard surrounded by mature oak trees with plenty of room for gardening or relaxing. Adding incredible versatility, the property has a second primary suite complete with a full bath, private entrance, and spacious living and sleeping area. Perfect for an in-law suite, an Airbnb, or a private home office. It is possible to make this a stand alone living space with a shared laundry room. You get to choose what suits your living space needs the best. Contact your REALTOR today to schedule your private tour of this one-of-a-kind home!
Sugarfoot, located between University Avenue and NW 16th Avenue, is a historic and walkable Gainesville neighborhood with leafy streets and mid-century bungalows. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the NW 16th Avenue corridor near NW 6th Street, where low-slung storefronts and patios set a casual, local rhythm. Curia on the Drag anchors the scene with coffee, art, and a courtyard feel. The Bull and Satchel’s Pizza add a familiar lineup of pub fare and pies in converted, character-rich spaces. Sidewalks thread past mature oaks toward nearby campus edges and small parks, keeping daily errands and evenings on foot.

Hop on your bike and get to UF in minutes and quit worrying about where to park! Enjoy this lush neighborhood which even has a park you can walk to. Docksides, Ballyhoo, shops and a movie theatre are also just a short walk away. A huge pool for those Summer months and a big porch perfect for away game football parties add to the many features of this one. You will love that the roof and water heater were replaced in 2015, Trane heat and air system replaced in 2021, and it was freshly painted in 2021 also. Spend time in your family room surrounded by windows letting in tons of natural light and perfect for bird watching. A huge kitchen, formal dining room and living room give lots of spaces for entertaining or just having some "me time". An unfinished flex space is in the converted garage with its own bath and separate entrance. With just a little cosmetic work this could be another en-suite or a home office or even your own private gym!
