Welcome to this beautifully updated 4BR/2BA home in Mentone, a sought-after amenity-rich community in SW Gainesville. Situated on an oversized quarter-acre corner lot shaded by mature oaks, this single-level home is bright, open, and truly move-in ready. The kitchen and primary bathroom have both been updated with brand-new quartz countertops in 2026, and the kitchen showcases a newer stainless appliance package including range, built-in microwave, and French-door refrigerator with ice and water, plus a breakfast bar and pass-through to the living area. Brand-new carpet has just been installed in all four bedrooms and new luxury vinyl plank flooring flows through every common area, complemented by fresh paint, updated lighting, and ceiling fans throughout. Major systems are already handled with a 2023 Bryant variable-speed system providing efficient central AC and heat. Soaring vaulted ceilings, custom built-in shelving in the great room, crown molding, and chair rail deliver character you won't find in newer construction. Living and dining flow together beneath a dramatic vaulted ceiling and a bay window that fills the space with natural light. The private primary suite is a true retreat with a tray ceiling, crown molding, walk-in closet, and a spa-like en-suite bath offering dual quartz vanities, a jetted garden tub, and a separate shower. Three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or a hobby room. A dedicated laundry room with washer and dryer included and an attached two-car garage add everyday convenience. Step through either of two sliding doors, one from the great room and one from the primary suite, onto the spacious screened lanai with ceiling fan, overlooking a fully privacy-fenced backyard backing to mature trees, with a large storage shed for tools, gear, and lawn equipment. Additional updates include a fully renovated guest bath (2018), new seamless gutters (2025), and updated electrical service. Residents enjoy an exceptional amenity package including a resort-style lap pool with separate wading pool, clubhouse, lighted tennis and basketball courts, sand volleyball, playground, covered picnic pavilion, open playing field, and a walking trail, all along tree-lined streets with sidewalks. Located minutes from UF Health Shands and the VA Medical Center, with no HOA minimum lease period, offering flexibility that appeals to residents, fellows, and traveling medical staff, or to investors seeking a turnkey rental. Also convenient to the University of Florida, Celebration Pointe, Butler Plaza, shopping, dining, and I-75. Foundation was professionally stabilized with engineering documentation available.
