Remarks: WALK OR BIKE TO UF!!! Opportunities like this don't come along often — a newer construction home with five bedrooms and four full baths, genuinely walkable and bikeable to the University of Florida and the Law School. Inside, the layout is open and airy, anchored by a generous living and dining area with quartz countertops, stainless appliances, and crown molding. Oversized windows flood the space with natural light, and dual lanai porches give you two separate spots to step outside. Low-E double-pane windows keep things energy efficient throughout. The main level features two bedrooms (one with an ensuite bath), upgraded wood-look flooring, and easy flow between living spaces. Head upstairs to find three additional bedrooms, two full baths (one ensuite), and a built-in study nook with under-cabinet lighting — a perfect setup for students or work-from-home use. Almost all of the furniture can be included to make this home turnkey! The outdoor space is equally impressive: a large lot enclosed by a 7-foot privacy fence, Trex covered deck, fire pit, and a storage shed. The oversized two-car carport comes with plenty of additional parking. A double washer/dryer setup in the laundry room is a practical bonus. Every bathroom features quartz counters, walk-in showers, and heavy glass doors — finishes that feel more boutique hotel than rental house. Whether you're looking for a primary residence or an income-producing investment, this home has a track record of consistent rental returns and the flexibility to lease one unit, several rooms, or the whole property.
