Welcome to the Benwood House at Millhopper—where timeless character meets modern comfort in the heart of Gainesville’s beloved Benwood Estates. This beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence sits on a generous quarter-acre lot and offers approximately 1,800 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space, making it ideal for families, professionals, or investors seeking versatility, location, and historical charm. Originally built in 1984 and upgraded throughout, this home features a brand-new roof, HVAC system, modern appliances, and preserved hardwood flooring. The spacious layout includes a bonus fourth bedroom with its own private exterior entrance, offering flexibility for a guest suite, home office, or income-producing rental. Smart-home enthusiasts will appreciate the installed Lorex 6-camera security system, while outdoor lovers will enjoy the fully fenced yard, complete sprinkler system, and large storage shed—ready for weekend projects or extra storage. Benwood Estates is a well-established neighborhood steeped in quiet charm and a sense of legacy. Tucked just south of Millhopper Road, this community reflects Gainesville’s rich history, with this particular home tied to an original Civil War–era land deed—an extraordinary connection to Florida’s past. Mature trees, wide streets, and no HOA make the Benwood Estates one of NW Gainesville’s most desirable non-cookie-cutter enclaves. Centrally located, the property is just 10 minutes from the University of Florida, top-rated schools including Buchholz High, and everyday conveniences like Thornebrook Village, Fresh Market, and Millhopper Library. Whether you're settling in or expanding your real estate portfolio, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, history, and opportunity.
