A rare offering in the heart of Duckpond, this early 1900s home blends classical architecture with intentional moments of whimsy, creating a home that feels both grounded in history and playfully alive. Hot water heater replaced in 2023, Roof replaced in 2018, Re-piped in 2016, HVAC 2012, updated electrical systems, and termite bond in place! Framed by a bespoke wooden archway and surrounded by intentional landscaping, 521 NE 6th Street is as much an experience as it is a home. With roots tracing back to the early 1900s, and possibly earlier, this property carries a story few homes can offer. Once associated with prominent Gainesville families, including Abraham Pepper, it has long been a place of gathering, conversation, and community. From its early days on what was once N. Franklin Street to today, its legacy continues in both its presence and preservation. Step through the front door, and you’re immediately drawn into a warm, inviting living space anchored by the original limestone and marble fireplace. From here, your eye travels effortlessly through the dining room, into the kitchen, and out to the back patio beyond, a layout that feels both open and intentional.

Upstairs, three bedrooms and a bath sit beneath softly angled ceilings, where dormer windows bring in light at unexpected angles. Built-in bookcases add both detail and function, while one room offers attic access, extending the home’s sense of possibility. Throughout, the finishes feel quiet but deliberate, like skim-coated walls, fresh interior paint, and refinished floors (2023), paired with a curated selection of lighting from Gubi, HAY, Raw Color, and Dioscuri, along with trimless recessed fixtures that allow the architecture to remain the focus. Microcement in the bathroom and sunroom adds a soft, tactile contrast to the home’s historic bones. Step outside, and the home continues to reveal itself in layers. The yard unfolds as a series of spaces to gather, to garden, to linger. Arborvitae and birds of paradise will grow into a lush, natural enclosure over time, offering both privacy and presence. At the rear, a garage/workshop with an additional enclosed space invites possibility for a studio, workspace, or future ADU. Homes like this are rarely available.

PRICE IMPROVEMENT — NOW $324,900! For the first time since it was custom built in 1967, 1410 NW 28th Street is being offered for sale. Owned and cared for by the same family for nearly 60 years, this solid brick home offers something increasingly difficult to find in Gainesville: nearly 2,000 square feet of living space, approximately one-third of an acre, NO HOA, and an incredibly convenient location near the University of Florida. With approximately 1,920 heated and cooled square feet and roughly 2,500 total square feet, the home has a spacious, flexible floor plan with multiple living areas, a separate breakfast room, generous garage, and plenty of room for entertaining, working from home, hobbies, or simply spreading out. Inside, the home has been freshly updated with new upgraded carpet in the bedrooms, professionally installed luxury vinyl plank flooring in the front living and dining rooms, and fresh interior paint throughout. Thoughtful material selections give the home a clean, polished feel while preserving the character that makes it unique. Even better, several major expenses have already been addressed, including a BRAND-NEW 2026 ROOF with transferable warranty, BRAND-NEW gas water heater, and a recent four-point inspection available for buyer review. And then there’s the location. With NO HOA, proximity to UF, and short-term rental eligibility, this property offers tremendous flexibility as a primary residence, second home, game-day retreat, or investment-minded purchase. On fall Saturdays, you can even hear the energy of Florida Field from home. The well-kept kitchen and bathrooms retain their original retro character—perfect for someone who appreciates vintage style or an opportunity for a new owner to update and personalize over time. The property also has a notably steep driveway, something buyers should experience in person. At $324,900, the price reflects both the home's existing character and the opportunity it presents. What you're getting is a solidly built, well-maintained, move-in-ready brick home with major improvements already completed, generous living space, a substantial lot, no HOA, and a location that is becoming increasingly difficult to replicate. This isn't another cookie-cutter house. It's a one-owner Gainesville home with nearly 60 years of history, real substance, and plenty of potential for its next chapter.
