About this home
408 W UNIVERSITY AVENUE UNIT 7B
JUST REDUCED!! Incredibly rare opportunity to own a luxury upper-floor condo in the historic, newly refurbished Seagle Building! This stunning 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit was fully renovated just a few years ago and offers modern comfort in one of the oldest and most iconic Gainesville buildings. Enjoy a large combined living and dining area on one of the building’s highest floors, featuring tile and simulated wood flooring throughout— NO CARPET. The remodeled kitchen, just off the main living space, showcases white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and an oversized island. The primary suite includes a generous walk-in closet and a beautifully updated bathroom with designer tile. The unit also features a new AC system, meaning that a major expense has already been taken care of for you. This unit is also one of the few that includes two reserved parking spaces in the integrated garage (a $20,000 upgrade). The building recently benefited from a significant capital improvement project and now looks better than ever, with a newer roof, fresh exterior paint, brand-new windows throughout, and extensive updates to the building HVAC system. Located in Downtown Gainesville, less than one mile from the University of Florida and steps from local favorites like Bo Diddley Plaza and top restaurants including Dragonfly, Harry’s, and Mark’s Prime. Easy access to UF, Shands Hospital/UF Health, and Innovation Square. The work has already been done… move right in. Units in this building are rarely for sale, so be sure to book your private tour ASAP.

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.
