About this house rental
Get the best of both sides of Gainesville: walk to the University of Florida and Gator athletics, then come home to a peaceful, private backyard surrounded by trees.
This bright and spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath Gainesville home combines an outstanding UF location with something that`s surprisingly hard to find this close to campus: beautiful outdoor spaces where you`ll actually want to spend time.
Whether you`re coming for a Gator football weekend, UF graduation, a campus visit, parents` weekend, an athletic event or simply a Gainesville getaway, this home gives you an easy home base close to the action—with plenty of room to relax when the day is over.
A Fantastic Location for Gator Weekends
One of the biggest advantages of this home is simple: you can walk to UF and the stadium.
Forget spending game day sitting in traffic or trying to figure out where to park near campus. From this neighborhood, you can head out on foot and join the energy surrounding the University of Florida and Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.
The home`s location near UF also makes it a great choice for graduation, campus tours, sporting events, alumni weekends, visiting family and university-related stays.
Bright, Spacious & Comfortable
Inside, the home feels bright, comfortable and welcoming.
Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, while the spacious living room gives everyone room to gather. Settle into the large sectional after a day exploring Gainesville, watch the game on the big-screen TV or simply relax together.
The fireplace adds character to the main living area, while the home`s classic details give it a sense of personality you won`t find in a generic new-build rental.
With 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, guests have the space and privacy that make traveling together much more comfortable.
Fully Equipped Kitchen
The bright kitchen is equipped for everything from a quick breakfast before heading to campus to a relaxed dinner at home.
You`ll find full-size appliances, generous cabinetry, ample counter space and a breakfast bar—plus the everyday essentials needed to prepare meals during your stay.
For football weekends, there`s plenty of room to put together your game-day spread before walking toward the stadium.
A Backyard That Sets This Home Apart
The backyard is one of the true highlights of this property.
Rather than simply having a patch of grass behind the house, you`ll have multiple outdoor spaces designed for gathering, dining and relaxing.
Step outside onto the spacious raised deck, where you`ll find room for outdoor dining and casual seating surrounded by Gainesville`s lush greenery.
Head down to the dedicated firepit area, tucked into the landscape and surrounded by Adirondack-style chairs. It`s a wonderful place to wind down in the evening, catch up with friends or spend time together after a Gator game.
Covered Outdoor Living & Grill
There`s even more outdoor space under the large covered patio.
Ceiling fans help keep the space comfortable, while additional seating creates another place to relax outside regardless of whether you want sun or shade.
A gas grill makes outdoor meals and game-day cooking easy, and the combination of the covered patio, open deck and firepit gives your group several completely different places to enjoy the property.
Morning coffee on the deck. An afternoon cookout. Drinks after the game. An evening around the firepit.
This backyard was made for enjoying Gainesville`s outdoor lifestyle.
Perfect for UF Visits & Football Weekends
The location makes this home especially appealing for:
Gator football weekends
UF graduation
Parents` weekends
Campus tours and Preview
UF sporting events
Alumni weekends
Visiting UF students
Family gatherings
University-related business
Gainesville getaways
Ben Hill Griffin Stadium is one of UF`s signature athletic destinations, and game days transform the surrounding campus into one of Gainesville`s biggest events.
The Best of Both Worlds
What makes this home special is the combination.
You don`t have to choose between being close to UF and having a home where you`ll actually enjoy spending your downtime.
Here, you can walk toward campus and the stadium when you want to be part of the action, then return to a bright, comfortable home surrounded by mature trees and outdoor spaces.
Gather in the spacious living room. Cook together in the full kitchen. Enjoy dinner outside. Fire up the grill. Relax on the deck. Finish the evening around the firepit.
For guests who want a walkable UF location with the space, comfort and outdoor amenities of a true Gainesville home, this one delivers.
