Welcome home to this beautifully appointed 2025 Lennar Celeste model in Tara Forest East, offering nearly new construction, a desirable corner lot, and the privacy of no rear neighbors in growing Alachua, Florida. With 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 1,815 sq. ft. of living space, and a 2-car garage, this move-in-ready home combines a thoughtful layout with the ease and efficiency of newer construction.
At the heart of the home, an open-concept kitchen, dining, and family room creates an inviting space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features an oversized center island with seating, abundant cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, and plenty of workspace, while ceramic tile flows throughout the main living areas for easy Florida living.
The split-bedroom floor plan provides comfortable separation and privacy. The spacious primary suite is tucked away from the secondary bedrooms and features a walk-in closet and private en-suite bath. Three additional bedrooms provides flexibility for family, overnight guests, a home office, fitness space, or hobbies.
Step outside to the covered rear patio and enjoy the added privacy of having no home directly behind you. Situated on approximately 0.23 acres, the corner homesite provides additional outdoor space, while the HardiePlank-style exterior and newer construction make this an appealing low-maintenance option.
Living in Tara Forest East in Alachua means having neighborhood amenities close to home, including a community pool, clubhouse, dog park, playground, tennis courts, and sidewalks. Convenient access to I-75 and US-441 also makes commuting to Gainesville, the University of Florida, UF Health, shopping, dining, and surrounding North Central Florida communities easy.
If you have been searching for a 4-bedroom home in Alachua, FL with newer construction, community amenities, a corner lot, and added backyard privacy, this one deserves a closer look. Schedule your private showing and come experience the home and community for yourself.
