Located in the desirable Mill Pond – The Landing community, this meticulously updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo offers move-in-ready, low-maintenance living in a prime Gainesville location. A gated courtyard entry welcomes you into a private paver patio, creating a functional outdoor living space.  Inside, a marble foyer sets the tone and transitions seamlessly to wood flooring throughout the home. Thoughtful details such as 8-foot doors add to the sense of openness and quality. To the left, the kitchen features an eat-in area with windows overlooking the courtyard, a breakfast bar, new stainless steel Whirlpool appliances (within the last year) silestone counters and plenty of wood cabinetry for storage.  The kitchen flows into an oversized dining and living area with vaulted ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. The primary suite includes an upgraded, large walk-in closet with all the built ins and an updated en-suite bath with dual sinks, walk-in shower,  jetted tub and private water closet. Conveniently located near the foyer is the second bedroom with new (2025) luxury vinyl plank flooring and a walk in closet.  Adjacent  to the bedroom is the hall bath with walk-in shower.  Additional highlights include a laundry/utility room with access to the oversized, heated and cooled garage with a new insulated garage door (2024).  Plenty of storage throughout and a pull-down attic storage with flooring.  Relax on your screened back porch which spans the full length of the home and overlooks a nature preserve.  Roof 2024.
