Come stay in this cozy 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom townhouse, designed to make you feel at home while visiting Gainesville.

One block to Depot Park, a few blocks to the downtown Gainesville scene, Shands, and UF, this renovated home boasts comfy memory foam beds, a full kitchen & more.

Full kitchen

The home is in Porter's Community, please read more about it below!

All rooms have a comfy queen memory foam mattress.

You can access the entire house, front porch and backyard area. Note that it's half of a townhouse/duplex, so parts of backyard are shared.

The entire place is yours, including the interior house as well as the half of the yard on your side of the duplex.

Washer /dryer may be available upon request.

This home is on the edge of Porter's Community, an "up & coming," multi-cultural / diverse neighborhood. The neighborhood is made up of mostly locals / residents, so please be respectful of the neighbors. It's super close to downtown, UF, and Shands.

Uber, bike or even walk!

It shares a wall/roof with another unit, so the backyard is shared; however, it has a separate driveway for 2-3 cars and separate entrance so it's completely separate. The other half is also used for short term rentals.
