About this home

PRICE IMPROVEMENT — NOW $324,900! For the first time since it was custom built in 1967, 1410 NW 28th Street is being offered for sale. Owned and cared for by the same family for nearly 60 years, this solid brick home offers something increasingly difficult to find in Gainesville: nearly 2,000 square feet of living space, approximately one-third of an acre, NO HOA, and an incredibly convenient location near the University of Florida. With approximately 1,920 heated and cooled square feet and roughly 2,500 total square feet, the home has a spacious, flexible floor plan with multiple living areas, a separate breakfast room, generous garage, and plenty of room for entertaining, working from home, hobbies, or simply spreading out. Inside, the home has been freshly updated with new upgraded carpet in the bedrooms, professionally installed luxury vinyl plank flooring in the front living and dining rooms, and fresh interior paint throughout. Thoughtful material selections give the home a clean, polished feel while preserving the character that makes it unique. Even better, several major expenses have already been addressed, including a BRAND-NEW 2026 ROOF with transferable warranty, BRAND-NEW gas water heater, and a recent four-point inspection available for buyer review. And then there’s the location. With NO HOA, proximity to UF, and short-term rental eligibility, this property offers tremendous flexibility as a primary residence, second home, game-day retreat, or investment-minded purchase. On fall Saturdays, you can even hear the energy of Florida Field from home. The well-kept kitchen and bathrooms retain their original retro character—perfect for someone who appreciates vintage style or an opportunity for a new owner to update and personalize over time. The property also has a notably steep driveway, something buyers should experience in person. At $324,900, the price reflects both the home's existing character and the opportunity it presents. What you're getting is a solidly built, well-maintained, move-in-ready brick home with major improvements already completed, generous living space, a substantial lot, no HOA, and a location that is becoming increasingly difficult to replicate. This isn't another cookie-cutter house. It's a one-owner Gainesville home with nearly 60 years of history, real substance, and plenty of potential for its next chapter.
