About this home
2842 SW 14TH DRIVE UNIT 103
Calling all Gator fans! This one is for you! Need a place to call home during football season? Baseball season? Any season? This beautifully remodeled one-bedroom condo in Bivens Estates South is ready to go! Tucked away just off US 441 south of the UF campus and UF Health Shands, you can enjoy a quiet, wooded setting while still being just minutes from everything that makes Gainesville such a great place to live. Inside, nearly every inch has been updated over the last few years, including a 2024 Trane HVAC system, all-new plumbing throughout in 2024, new front windows in 2024, a newer water heater, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, fresh interior paint, and an updated kitchen and bathroom. The washer and dryer were replaced in 2023, too. The spacious bedroom includes a huge walk-in closet, and the enclosed porch adds flexible living space that would make a great home office, reading room or spot to relax and enjoy the lush surroundings. The community offers a pool and sits along beautiful Bivens Arm Lake, giving you a little slice of Old Florida right in the middle of town. And the location really is hard to beat! The University of Florida and UF Health Shands Hospital are just up the road, while downtown Gainesville, Depot Park and the restaurants, shopping and entertainment at Butler Plaza are all just a short drive away. When you want to get outside, you're close to some of Gainesville's best natural areas and recreation, including Paynes Prairie and the 16-mile paved Gainesville-Hawthorne State Trail for biking, walking and running. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a Gainesville getaway for Gator weekends, or simply an easy-to-maintain place close to UF and Shands, this one checks a lot of boxes. Just bring your orange and blue!

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
