About 7020 SW 78th St

Charming 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath Ranch Home in a Serene Cul-de-Sac Setting. Discover your dream home in this delightful 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch-style residence, nestled at the start of a peaceful cul-de-sac. Step inside and be greeted by the inviting ceramic tile flooring that flows throughout the home, creating a cohesive and easy-to-maintain living space. The heart of the home, the kitchen, was beautifully remodeled in 2017 by Carsons Cabinetry, featuring soft-close doors and drawers for a touch of luxury. Appliances, including the stove, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher, are included for your convenience. The main bathroom was also updated in 2017, while the master bath received a fresh makeover in 2022. Enjoy energy efficiency and major cost savings with the solar panel system installed in 2018 by Power Production Management, a local Gainesville company. The system comes with a transferable warranty valid for another 2.5 to 3 years and is fully paid off. The home also boasts a Trane variable speed 3 Ton Heat Pump, installed in 2017, along with a beautiful fireplace, ensuring your comfort year-round. The property features a new roof installed by Retex Roofing in July, 2024, with a transferable warranty for added peace of mind. An underground sprinkler system, recently serviced and in good working condition, keeps the landscaping lush and vibrant. The home is protected by a termite bond from Fla Pest Control, last renewed in April 2024. In 2021, the house was pinned by Solid Foundations due to settling from tree removal. A follow-up site visit by Fielden Engineering confirmed that the settling has stopped, and the home is sitting properly on its piers, and that these same piers would be perfect for use if an addition to the home is ever wanted, ensuring decades of stability into the future. The spacious backyard is a nature lover's paradise, with a mature bird and butterfly garden featuring native plants. Newer and also native plantings around the front of the home provide added privacy and another sanctuary for birds and butterflies. As a bonus, the property includes a large 8x8 chicken coop with a 30' run that is run by its own solar panel, perfect for those who enjoy fresh eggs or simply appreciate the charm of backyard chickens, while making it easy to care for them. This home is served by public water, a septic system (last emptied 10/2023 by Wind River Environmental), and Clay Electric. With no HOA fees, you'll have the freedom to enjoy your home without additional costs. Don't miss this opportunity to make this lovely ranch home your own. Schedule a viewing today and experience the comfort, efficiency, and serenity that awaits you.
