Property Description

Nestled beneath majestic live oaks in the heart of historic Micanopy, this charming Old Florida cottage offers a rare combination of peaceful surroundings, thoughtful updates, and more than half an acre of beautifully established grounds. Whether you're looking for a cozy full-time residence, a weekend getaway, or a potential short-term rental investment, this unique property offers endless possibilities in one of North Central Florida's most beloved small towns. Step inside and discover a warm, inviting home where every square foot has been thoughtfully utilized. The comfortable living area flows into a delightful galley kitchen featuring butcher block countertops, updated cabinetry, a dishwasher, and open shelving that creates an airy, spacious feel. Two welcoming bedrooms share a beautifully appointed bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower, glass-block window, and sliding barn-style door. Throughout the home, improvements including updated windows, siding, flooring, a mini-split HVAC system, and added insulation provide modern comfort while preserving its cottage charm. Outside, the covered front and back porches invite you to slow down and enjoy the peaceful setting, while the expansive corner lot feels like a private garden retreat. Towering live oaks, mature privacy hedges, flowering plants, and an impressive variety of established fruit trees and tropical landscaping create a lush, secluded atmosphere. A dedicated herb garden with water and electricity adds even more character and functionality. An impressive 12' x 36' Lark steel workshop on a concrete slab offers exceptional versatility, having previously served as an art studio and woodworking shop. Perfect for creative pursuits, hobbies, or additional storage, it's a standout feature that makes this property even more unique. Just minutes from Micanopy's charming historic downtown, you'll enjoy easy access to antique shops, local eateries, and galleries, with Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park nearby and Gainesville approximately 12 miles north. With its timeless Old Florida charm, spacious grounds, versatile workshop, and convenient location, this special property offers an opportunity to embrace a quieter pace of life without sacrificing convenience.
