About 221 SE 9th St

Discover a rare gem in the heart of Downtown Gainesville – two beautifully updated vintage homes on a single lot! This unique property offers an exceptional opportunity for savvy buyers. Both homes have undergone extensive renovations, featuring new roofs, AC units, plumbing, windows, and more, blending classic charm with modern comforts. The front home, a cozy 784 sq ft, 2-bedroom, 1-bath retreat, is currently leased through 7/31/2025. The back home, a slightly larger 896 sq ft, 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence, is leased for $1,295/month through 1/30/2026. Perfectly situated, you can stroll to Depot Park or the vibrant downtown area in minutes. This property is ideal for an owner-occupant seeking to live in one home while renting out the other for steady income. With a proven rental history, these two homes are a steal at this price – essentially two homes for the price of one. Located in a rapidly appreciating area, with new construction taking place all around, this is an unbeatable investment in a prime, up-and-coming neighborhood!
