BATHROOM

The bathroom features an expansive four-foot skylight in the shower. Watch red-tailed hawks soar and cardinals flit by as you take a rinse. Enjoy the vanity area with a large mirror as you get ready for a night on the town at one of Gainesville`s many attractions.

Surrounded by towering oak trees, you will find the private deck tranquil and peaceful. This is a great spot to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening while viewing the magnificent Florida sunsets.
