Listing description
About this home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Tucked into the highly sought-after Golfview neighborhood, just steps from the University of Florida Golf Course and within easy walking distance to campus, this cherished home offers a rare blend of character, history, and opportunity. Lovingly held in the same family for over 60 years, it tells a story you can feel the moment you walk through the door.
Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, complemented by original wood floors that run throughout the home, adding warmth and timeless appeal. Tall ceilings enhance the sense of space, while the oversized sunroom invites natural light and creates the perfect setting for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. One of the home’s most distinctive features is its custom wallpaper in the kitchen and hallway—an extraordinary collection of vintage beer labels curated by the original owner, preserved beautifully over decades as a truly one-of-a-kind conversation piece.
The property itself is equally special. The current owner and neighboring property thoughtfully divided the adjoining land, resulting in an oversized lot that offers both privacy and flexibility. With city approval, there is potential to add an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), opening the door for rental income, a guest house, or multigenerational living.
Complete with a one-car garage and situated in a location that combines charm, convenience, and long-term value, this home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history while imagining its next chapter.

Estimate: asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × Alachua County rate (16.56 mills, adopted 2025 millage). Not a bill.
⚠️
Property taxes in Florida are reassessed after a sale, so a buyer’s first full-year bill can be higher than the seller’s. Budget from this estimate, not the current bill, before you make an offer.
Current owner’s estimated bill $6,725/yr ($560/mo) — taxable value $406,030 × 16.56 mills
$2,300 more each year
(+34%)
Most of this comes from Florida’s Save Our Homes assessment cap resetting when the home sells — the current owner’s protected assessment does not transfer to a new buyer.

What it really costs to own 2721 Sw 3Rd Place
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
Property tax
The current owner's bill is about $6,725/yr (certified county roll, taxable value × millage). Buy at the asking price of $595,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $9,025/yr (the parcel is matched to the certified roll; asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × 16.56 mills); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr.
HOA dues
The listing states there is no HOA.
Home and flood insurance
The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Alachua County is $1,020/yr (714 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $2,500–$5,500/yr; neither is a quote.
Roof and age
Built in 1944. An original roof would be about 82 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date.
Estimated carrying cost at the asking price, before the mortgage: about $837/month (tax $752, insurance $85). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote; the monthly-cost calculator on this page adds the loan.
Estimated ownership costs

Insurance (illustrative range)

The Messtimate
Our automated estimate of the likely sale-price range for this home — modeled from recent closed sales nearby adjusted to today's market, a local size-and-age model, and the county tax roll. It is an estimate, not an appraisal, not market value, and not an offer. A licensed agent's CMA sees the condition, the lot, and the live market that a model can't.
$382,200the mess$527,800
Directional estimate — built from 20 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles (same property type, closed within the last 18 months, each adjusted to today's market).
Track record: across 2,976 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 57% of the time; median miss 9.3% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-10-24.
Actual list price: $595,000 ($253/sq ft) — the seller's asking price is not an input to this range; compare the two.
A 38% spread on the same house — here is what a model can't see:
Condition & updates — a 1944 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; the model can't see either.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one.
Carrying costs & concessions — insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.

Sep 2026 · Infrastructure
Alachua County budgets $106 million for roads and expands pothole repair
County Manager Michele Lieberman said the 2026-27 budget includes $106 million for roads across a 700-mile network. The county now runs four pothole crews six days a week, added milling and resurfacing to its Watson Construction contract, and is adding a $500,000 amendment for more repairs.
Why it matters: Added road funding and resurfacing should improve driving conditions on county roads and affect commute reliability. The site is about 9 miles east of Golfview Estates Gainesville.
Gainesville board approves 248-unit apartment project in northwest Gainesville
The Gainesville Development Review Board approved a 248-unit multifamily project in northwest Gainesville, planned as four four-story buildings with a clubhouse and amenities, with construction expected to run about 22 months.
Why it matters: A new apartment community of this size adds rental housing to northwest Gainesville, a factor that can influence demand and pricing for nearby communities. The site is about 6 miles northeast of Golfview Estates Gainesville.
Newberry Ridge development of up to 1,250 homes advances east of Champions Park
Newberry Ridge, a roughly 225 acre project planned for up to 1,250 homes east of Champions Park in Newberry, cleared a land use amendment step and moved toward further Planning and Zoning, City Commission, and state review.
Why it matters: A large planned community of this scale adds significant future housing on the west side of Alachua County, a factor that can influence demand and pricing for nearby communities. The site is about 6 miles west of Golfview Estates Gainesville.
Sandia West development of about 500 homes advances near Champions Park in Newberry
Sandia West, a roughly 160 acre residential development planned for about 500 homes near Champions Park on the northeast side of Newberry, won Planning and Zoning Board approval and moved toward City Commission and state review.
Why it matters: A large new residential development in Newberry adds future housing supply on the west side of Alachua County, the kind of growth that can shape demand for nearby communities. The site is about 7 miles west of Golfview Estates Gainesville.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 2721 Sw 3Rd Place and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 2721 Sw 3Rd Place was built in 1944 and has 2,348 sq ft of living area, 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 2721 Sw 3Rd Place in?
2721 Sw 3Rd Place is in Golfview Estates in Gainesville, Alachua County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 2721 Sw 3Rd Place have an HOA?
The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.
Why might property taxes on 2721 Sw 3Rd Place differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $9,025 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $2,300 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+34%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 2721 Sw 3Rd Place in a flood zone?
A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
