Property Description
Distinctive 1928 chert estate home in the heart of the historic Duckpond neighborhood on a corner lot. Unique to Gainesville, there were just over 140 homes in the area built of chert, limestone acquired as a building material from local quarries in the early 1900s. Nestled on a quiet and tree lined street, this rare home has loads of curb appeal with three exterior patios, mature landscaping and a wrought iron balcony. The covered front entry features detailed woodwork and opens into a spacious foyer with a stunning spiral staircase housing a decorative arched window. Flanked by a living room with a wood burning fireplace and a light and bright sunroom on one side, and a dining room, breakfast nook and updated kitchen on the other. The kitchen features updated cabinets and appliances. Small ground floor bedroom and bath just off the foyer with a private entrance. The second floor includes 4 bedrooms, 2 baths and access to the fully-floored attic via stairs. The house includes a two-car garage, utility basement, and a bonus space with entrance at the back of the garage. Plenty of closet space, vintage tile, oak floors on the ground floor, and maple on the second floor. This stunning home has only had three owners. Special house.
