About this property

TreeTops Spacious Architectural Retreat

Summary:
Escape to TreeTops, a stunning four-bedroom home in Gainesville, offering panoramic views of the surrounding trees and Hogtown Creek from its three outdoor decks. Enjoy the tranquility of nature while being just a mile from Gator Stadium and a short drive to Downtown Gainesville. Perfect for families and groups, this retreat features ample space and modern amenities for a memorable stay.

The Space:
Our well-appointed home is perfect for families or groups of friends visiting the area. Built by Frank Lloyd Wright protégé, Sam Evans, in 1964, Tree Tops is a cornerstone of Gainesville’s Modern Architectural history. It boasts a seamless integration of architecture and the natural landscape. Pictures and words do not describe the beauty of dwelling in this home.

As you step inside the reverse floorplan, you'll immediately notice the comfortable and inviting living space, which is ideal for relaxing after a long day of exploring all that Gainesville has to offer. The upper living room features cozy seating and a 65" flat-screen television with YouTube TV, making it the perfect spot for movie nights, Gator games, or catching up on your favorite shows. Guests may also sign into their Netflix and Hulu accounts.

The living space transitions into the dining area and has plenty of space for everyone to enjoy meals together. To the left of the dining space are large sliding glass doors that open up to the first of three outdoor decks with seating for two.

Continue on to the fully equipped kitchen, which includes a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, and All-Clad cookware. Attached to the kitchen is a bar and wine fridge to store your favorite vintages at the right temp. Abutting the kitchen and wine bar is an additional screened-in deck with cozy seating for six which is accessed by the large sliding glass doors.

Before heading downstairs, you'll find the entrance to the large primary bedroom which includes a king-size bed, cozy seating area, walk-in closet, large flatscreen TV, and en-suite bathroom.

Head downstairs to access a second living room, three additional guest quarters, a laundry room, and a large deck with an outdoor kitchen and a dining table with seating for eight.

Our location is truly unbeatable, with easy access to all the best attractions that Gainesville has to offer. From museums and galleries to shopping and dining, there's something for everyone in this vibrant city. We look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful property and making your stay in Gainesville unforgettable!

Perfect for Graduation weekend

Stayed w/family for graduation weekend. Very convenient to campus, beautiful quiet neighborhood. Even found a walking trail to the Preserve closeby. 3 of 4 bedrooms are downstairs & getting from driveway to the house was tricky for the 3 elderly ladies we traveled with but overall was a wonderful experience
Stayed 2 nights in May 2025
