About this home
Virtually Staged. Searching for an updated home near Gainesville with NO HOA, a fully fenced yard, and an affordable price point? This move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath concrete block home in Archer, Florida offers 1,066 heated and cooled square feet on a spacious .34-acre corner lot with a one-car carport, combining small-town living with convenient access to Gainesville, the University of Florida, UF Health, Williston, and Ocala. Built in 1985, the home has been refreshed inside and out with brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint, updated light fixtures, and newer kitchen appliances. The kitchen and bathrooms have both been remodeled within the last four years, giving the home an updated feel without the renovation projects that often come with homes in this price range. Important improvements include a brand-new 2026 water heater, HVAC installed in 2019, and a metal roof installed approximately 10 years ago, adding even more value to this well-priced Archer home. Outside, the fully fenced .34-acre corner lot provides plenty of usable outdoor space with a 6-foot wood privacy fence surrounding the yard. A covered wood deck creates a comfortable place for grilling, outdoor dining, or relaxing, with additional yard space for gardening, recreation, pets, or simply enjoying a little more room between you and your neighbors. Best of all, there is NO HOA, giving you greater flexibility without monthly or annual association fees. Located just off Main Street in the City of Archer, this home offers the quieter pace and extra breathing room many buyers want while keeping Gainesville within easy reach. Archer is approximately 15 miles southwest of Gainesville, with convenient access to the University of Florida, UF Health Shands Hospital, Butler Plaza, Celebration Pointe, shopping, dining, and employment centers.
