14713 MAIN STREET,
Alachua, FL 32615

Own a part of Historic Downtown Alachua. This one of a kind Queen Anne architectural style exquisitely built and well-maintained home sits on almost half an acre of beautifully landscaped and improved property. Arguably THE most beautiful home in Alachua county. This home is zoned Commercial Central Business District (CCBD) which means you can live or work or do both in the home at the same time; live upstairs while having your office or retail shop downstairs. Heart pine construction, including the flooring, throughout the home. Outside, 22 solid wood columns on the wraparound porch. Oversized doors (36" x 84") with transoms, crown molding, picture molding, chair rails, wainscoting and many other original features are preserved throughout the house. Decorative door knobs and hinges, light switches, chandeliers, metal corners on the stairway and six fireplaces with original mantels add to the beauty of the home. All rooms are large, airy and with lots of natural light and have 12 foot ceilings. The kitchen is equipped with a professional style gas range, free standing baker's oven, a new double door refrigerator, new Bosch dish washer, an oversized sink and a 17 foot heart pine drainboard/countertop. Main Street is well maintained and seasonably decorated by the City of Alachua, including the landscaped parking strip and weekly leaf blowing. Electrical lines are underground, out of sight and out of danger from falling trees. The outbuilding features a one car garage, a large workshop, a covered patio and an upstairs mother-in-law studio apartment currently being used as one of the two airbnb's. It is also suitable for a self contained monthly rental unit. In the main home, there is a newer (2017) package unit HVAC (16 seer ac and gas furnace) for the central air downstairs and there's a heat pump and air handler in the attic for the upstairs. The meandering brick pathway leads through the property to a custom built Gazebo. Neighborhood amenities such as restaurants, pizza parlors, a grocery store, post office and other shopping opportunities are in walking distance of the home.
