The space
This two-bedroom, 2-bath cozy retreat has been fully restored and meticulously designed to offer a perfect blend of contemporary elegance and rustic charm. The chert stone and red brick exterior has the curb appeal of a quaint cottage, but inside you’ll find all the comforts of modern living.

Gather around the captivating firepit, relish the crackling flames, and let lively conversations and roasting marshmallows create unforgettable moments with loved ones.
Inside, the open-concept living area boasts high vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, and large windows that flood the home with natural light. Unwind and enjoy your evenings relaxing in the comfortable arm chairs in front of a welcoming gas fireplace.
The kitchen is a chef's dream featuring top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances with gas stove, ample storage, pantry, and an expansive breakfast bar for casual dining.

Other things to note
Please be advised that this home is located in the heart of the UF community. Students walk in front of our house often and there’s even a sorority across the street. Use this as an opportunity to be immersed in campus life and get a feel for the student experience!
While we rent this home for Gator football games, this is our personal home. Please make yourself comfortable but we ask that you treat our space and belongings with respect.
Also note that the Historic Preservation Board requested that the antique windows be restored rather than replaced. As a result, you may hear more noise from outside than you would in a recently-built home. This is not much of an issue though since the bedrooms are at the rear of the house away from the street.
We can sometimes accommodate early check-in times or later check-out times. Please message via the messaging system to inquire further.
