About 720 Ne Boulevard

Just listed for sale- the 1924 Haynie House is the quintessential Florida Craftsman Bungalow. This beautiful home has 3 bedrooms plus an office and 2 full bathrooms in the main house, a detached 1 bedroom/1 bathroom apartment, a 1 car garage/workshop and sits on one of the largest properties in the Duckpond. Located on the main Boulevard on the duck pond, you will love the gorgeous views of the city-maintained, park-like setting with a meandering creek as it flows into the pond. The Duckpond is an area of 900 homes in the NE Gainesville Residential District. It is walking distance to downtown Gainesville, 2.5 miles to the University of Florida, UF Health/Shands and just 10 minutes to the Gainesville airport. One of the most walkable neighborhoods in Gainesville, it is just blocks to area shops and restaurants as well as Tom Petty and Roper Parks and the Thomas Center and gardens. This beautiful home emphasizes horizontal lines, local fieldstone and building materials and maintains a strong connection to the natural Florida landscape. From the front covered entry you enter the foyer with beautiful red oak wood floors. To the left is the large Great Room with a wood-burning fireplace and French Doors to the backyard.
