Gainesville's Hidden Gem: Modern 3BR Gainesville Pool Home

Looking for a private, peaceful retreat in Gainesville that feels like a resort but still puts you minutes from downtown, UF, and nature? Whether you’re visiting for graduation, a medical stay, a family trip, or a romantic escape, this beautifully appointed 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom pool home is everything you didn’t know you needed — until now.

Tucked away in a quiet, residential neighborhood, this home offers all the comforts of a boutique hotel, with the space, privacy, and charm of a true Gainesville escape.

 

As you step through the front door, you're greeted by an open-concept living area designed for both relaxation and connection. The cozy living room features plush seating and a smart TV — perfect for streaming movies or catching the Gator game with friends and family.

The fully stocked kitchen is a chef’s dream, with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and everything you need to prepare anything from pancake breakfasts to celebratory dinners. With seating for six inside and outdoor dining space as well, you have plenty of options for gathering over a meal.

The home comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests, with:

• A king-size master suite and private en-suite bathroom

• Two additional bedrooms with queen beds

• A second full bathroom with modern fixtures and plenty of space

Each bedroom is tastefully decorated with a modern, Florida-coastal aesthetic — creating a relaxing atmosphere you’ll look forward to returning to after a day exploring Gainesville.

 

Let’s talk about the real showstopper: the sparkling private pool.

Surrounded by mature landscaping and a fully fenced yard, this backyard oasis feels like a personal resort. Spend your mornings poolside with a coffee in hand, afternoons cooling off in the water, and evenings under the stars with a cold drink and great company.

There’s even a covered patio for shaded lounging, complete with outdoor furniture and a fan to keep things breezy. Whether you’re on a working vacation or a weekend getaway, this outdoor space is the kind of place where memories are made.

 

Gainesville gets busy — especially during University of Florida graduation weekends in May and December. Hotels book out months in advance, and even then, you’re stuck in tight rooms with limited space for visiting family.

This home gives you the luxury of space and privacy, plus:

• A full kitchen to host your own celebration meals

• A pool for post-ceremony relaxation

• Plenty of space for extended family to stay under one roof

You're only a 10–15 minute drive from the UF campus, making it a stress-free choice for graduates and their families.

 

Gainesville is home to UF Health/Shands Hospital, one of the top medical institutions in Florida. Whether you're a traveling nurse, visiting professor, or staying in town to support a loved one receiving care, this home offers the comfort and serenity you need for longer stays.

With high-speed Wi-Fi, a dedicated workspace, and washer/dryer included, you’ll have everything you need to settle in for a week or a month — and feel at home from day one.

 

Bringing the kids along? This home is built with families in mind:

• A clean, quiet neighborhood for bike rides and walks

• Spacious common areas for games, reading, or relaxing together

And with a private pool, you’ve got the best family entertainment just steps outside the door — no need to drive to a community pool or waterpark.

 

Although it’s nestled in a tranquil neighborhood, this home is surprisingly close to Gainesville’s best attractions.
