Property Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Wake up to birds singing from your screened porch and enjoy one of Gainesville's most affordable active adult lifestyles with a pool, clubhouse, tennis, social events, and HOA dues under $50 per month.

Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled in a friendly 55+ community, surrounded by the peaceful beauty of a natural preserve. Start your mornings on the screened front porch, serenaded by birdsong, and unwind in the evenings on your private screened back porch.
Inside, you’ll find tile flooring throughout—no carpet here! The spacious living and dining areas offer a comfortable layout that proves downsizing doesn’t mean sacrificing space or style. At the heart of the home is a large, open kitchen featuring generous counter space and stainless steel appliances. Thoughtful touches like corner lazy Susans, pull-out cabinetry, and an externally vented microwave make everyday living both easy and efficient.
The primary suite is impressively sized, easily accommodating a king bed, and includes two walk-in closets, a linen closet, a dedicated vanity area, and a private full bathroom—plenty of storage and comfort all in one space. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of an indoor laundry room, along with high ceilings and abundant natural light that create a bright, airy feel throughout the home.
The second bedroom—perfect as a guest room, office, or craft space—features luxury vinyl plank flooring and its own private access to the screened back porch.
Outside, there’s ample covered parking with room for larger vehicles, plus an additional storage area for tools or hobbies.
Located in the desirable Turkey Creek Forest, this community offers the perfect blend of convenience, connection, and natural beauty. Just minutes from both Alachua and Gainesville, with nearby shopping at Publix and Walmart, plus scenic walking trails at the nearby Mill Creek Preserve.
Residents enjoy a welcoming atmosphere with amenities like a community library, craft room, clubhouse activities, and a full calendar of social events. Stay active with water aerobics in the pool, tennis, shuffleboard, or simply enjoy evening strolls under the stars while connecting with neighbors.
And the best part? HOA fees are incredibly low—under $43 per month!
Come experience the lifestyle you’ve been waiting for—where comfort, nature, and community come together beautifully.
