Description

This stunning Frank Lloyd Wright inspired home occupies a premium, end of cul-de-sac, 0.8 acre lot in the idyllical Haile Plantation neighborhood of Whitaker Oaks. At 4232 square feet, the home has 5 bedrooms plus a large study, dedicated homework room, and kid’s playroom (or second office/ 6 th bedroom). The master, with its huge custom walk-in closet occupies the ground floor. The other 4, one of which is an ensuite, can be found at the top of the bespoke staircase. One of the 5 full bathrooms is a cabana bath off the stone-paved lanai near the salt water pool. The custom, pool side summer kitchen features a grill, smoker, beverage fridge, ice maker and Naturekast weather proof cabinets. It’s the perfect home for large gatherings and entertaining. The updated kitchen is a chef’s dream. The Viking appliances, Sub-Zero 48” refrigerator and beverage fridge, gas cooktop and Cove dishwasher are top of the line. You’ll be impressed with the soaring ceilings and double-sided fireplace in the formal living room which opens to the formal dining room with pool views. A cozy family room, complete with a linear gas fireplace, flows openly from the kitchen and is the perfect place for relaxing and watching movies. Wired for Control 4 smart home system with outside security cameras and attached 3 car garage for ease of entry through the laundry to the kitchen. Entirely unique design elements make this a one-of-a-kind property in Gainesville, built using multiple materials: The skeleton is structural steel beams, the walls are brick, and the interior framing is wood. Pella windows and doors throughout. Based on the architectural ideas and designs of renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright this could not be further from a traditional “Florida home” in terms of design and build. This home is storm-ready: Hip roof, solid brick from the ground up, and even has an oversized commercial whole-house Olympian guardian generator. Come and view this home to see the huge number of added-value features compared to current ‘new builds’.
