Property Description

This Mid-Century Modern masterpiece designed by renowned architect John Puckett situated on a legacy property is a rare offering—where architecture, landscape, and lifestyle converge in perfect harmony. Thoughtfully positioned to capture sweeping views rather than street presence, the home embraces its extraordinary setting on Haile Sink, a unique geological formation known for its remarkable depth and clarity, fed by the waters of Hogtown Creek. This serene, creek-fed lake —averaging approximately 140 feet deep—offers exceptional water quality and a diverse aquatic environment. This private lake is ideal for fishing and exploration, with bass, gar, catfish, and more! Beyond the water’s edge, over 1,000 acres of the protected Sugarfoot Prairie creates an unmatched backdrop of open vistas and natural beauty, ensuring enduring privacy and a connection to nature. Set on 5 acres, the home and the studio apartment are both constructed of solid concrete block and designed to seamlessly integrate with the surrounding prairie, forest, the creek and the lake. Expansive terraces and decks extend the living space outdoors, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame views from nearly every room. Inside, architectural details abound—Cyprus ceilings, built-in bookcases, brick walls, and striking fireplaces anchor the living spaces. The upper level features rich hardwood flooring, while the lower level offers a modern aesthetic with finished concrete floors. The home’s design balances warmth and sophistication with clean, contemporary lines. Equestrians: there is a barn a short distance from the house equipped with two stalls! Additional highlights include: NO HOA, New roof (2019), a whole-house water treatment system, a detached 1,013 sq ft studio apartment adjacent to the garage (new roof 2026) —ideal for guests, creative space, or for investors, income potential. This is a true retreat for those seeking architectural distinction, natural beauty, and complete privacy—yet still in the heart of Gainesville's amenities and conveniences!
