About This Home

Feel at home in The Camellia Rose Mansion, a stunning Queen Anne Victorian home in historic downtown Gainesville. This 7-bedroom, 7.5-bath estate blends southern historic charm with modern luxury, making it perfect for any group stay, family stay, corporate travel, your next reunion, celebration, or Gator game weekend. Inside, you’ll find expansive spaces to gather, including a grand parlor with elegant seating and a cozy fireplace, a formal dining room for 14 under antique chandeliers, and a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, double ovens, and all the cookware your chef could need. Original woodwork and high ceilings imbue every room with turn-of-the-century elegance, while fast Wi-Fi, central air conditioning, and smart TVs provide the comforts of today. Four of the suites even boast their own fireplaces, offering a warm ambiance on cooler nights. A washer and dryer are available for your use. The kitchen is stocked with coffee, tea, and basic condiments to get you started. Parking is plentiful with space for up to 6 cars in the driveway. Walk just 5 minutes to downtown Gainesville’s best restaurants, cafes, and shops. The University of Florida and Ben Hill Griffin Stadium are only about a 5-minute drive (about 1.5 miles), making it super convenient for UF graduations and game days. Despite being so close to the action, the mansion is tucked in a quiet, leafy neighborhood, offering you the best of both worlds. The large fenced backyard is ideal for small events. There are 4 separate outdoor covered porches, and a 1200 sq ft wrap-around porch invites you to sip morning coffee or evening wine while overlooking the rose garden and fountain. As twilight falls, gather on the porch rockers or around the fire pit in the yard (seasonal) and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere. [SI]
