About this home

8127 SW 12TH PLACE

Welcome home to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence in the desirable SW neighborhood of Westwood. Situated on a fully fenced 0.22-acre lot just minutes from shopping, dining, and major roadways, this home offers the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and modern upgrades. Located approximately 6 miles from the University of Florida and about 8 miles from Santa Fe College, commuting across town is a breeze and Butler plaza and I 75 are only 3 miles away. Step inside and immediately notice the soaring vaulted ceilings in the living room, creating an open and inviting atmosphere centered around the fireplace. The home features luxury vinyl flooring throughout with no carpet anywhere, and the popcorn ceilings have been removed for a clean, modern look. Fresh white paint so you can make it your own. The fully remodeled kitchen is designed to impress with solid wood cabinetry, soft-close doors and drawers, granite countertops, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances. Just beyond the dining area, French doors lead to an oversized screened patio, complete with electrical already in place for a future hot tub, making it the perfect space for entertaining or relaxing year-round. The primary suite is truly a standout feature. Roughly the size of two traditional primary bedrooms combined, it offers exceptional flexibility for a sitting area, home office, or workout space. Storage is abundant with closets spanning two walls, plus an additional linen closet nearby. Both guest bedrooms are generously sized and filled with natural light, featuring large closets that provide plenty of storage. Additional storage throughout the home includes a coat closet and linen closet, helping keep everything organized. A spacious two-car garage completes the package, offering room for vehicles, tools, and hobbies. Currently zoned for Lawton M. Chiles Elementary, Kanapaha Middle School, and F.W. Buchholz High School. Buyers should verify school zoning with Alachua County Public Schools as boundaries can change. This move-in ready home combines modern updates, exceptional storage, and an unbeatable location near UF, Santa Fe College, and Oak Hall School. Don't miss your opportunity to make it yours!

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.
