1717 Nw 23Rd Ave

Gaineswood is an established, low‑rise condominium complex first developed in 1972 and arranged across gardened grounds rather than a single tower. The community combines one‑level and multi‑floor buildings with a mix of one‑ and multi‑bedroom units; typical residences feature open floorplans, solid wood cabinetry, skylights, walk‑in closets and balconies or sliding doors to outdoor space. Interiors often include ceiling fans, foyer entries, combined living/dining areas, and practical finishes such as thermostats and window treatments. Shared facilities are extensive and characterful: a clubhouse with library and meeting room, exercise and sauna areas, an indoor whirlpool, billiards/game room, art and ceramics studios, workshop space, large swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, barbecue spots and courtyards with water features. The property is gated with elevators in taller buildings, private mailboxes, on‑site storage and irrigation/landscaped grounds. Located in a wooded setting near University of Florida, downtown Gainesville, shopping and bus lines, the development emphasizes community amenities, recreational programming and a park‑like campus atmosphere.
