Set in the heart of Mentone, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has been thoughtfully updated while keeping the warmth and character that make it feel like home. Inside, vaulted ceilings and natural light open up the main living spaces, where warm toned flooring, a fireplace, and an easy flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas create a space that feels comfortable and connected. The remodeled kitchen takes center stage with an impressive 8-foot quartz island, white cabinetry, gold hardware, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of room to pull up a seat. The split-bedroom floor plan gives the primary suite its own side of the home, complete with high ceilings, a walk-in closet, and an updated en suite featuring a double vanity, jetted tub, and glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a guest bath are tucked away on the opposite side. Double French doors extend the living space outside to the wood deck and privacy-fenced backyard, while the covered front porch offers another spot to slow down and enjoy a Florida evening. Living in Mentone means having community amenities right outside your neighborhood, including a pool, playground, basketball and tennis courts, walking trail, and soccer field. The location also keeps you close to UF, Shands, Celebration Pointe, Butler Plaza, Santa Fe College, and everything SW Gainesville has to offer.
