Downtown Beautiful 5 Bedroom with Large Yard

Welcome to Grand Laurel Oak Estate, Gainesville’s premiere private retreat blending historic elegance with modern luxury. Perfect for groups, events, reunions, retreats, and more. Your event. Your way. This 5 bedroom / 5.5 bath home invites your group to live in comfort and style – whether you’re in town for a family reunion, UF graduation, or a corporate off-site. Outdoor Paradise: Start your morning on one of our two wraparound porches, sipping coffee on a cozy swing as the neighborhood wakes up. In the evening, step out back to the expansive patio draped in twinkling party lights – an enchanting setting for dinners or celebrations. With seating for everyone under the stars, you can grill out, share stories, and make memories. Spacious & Luxurious Interiors: the large living spaces means your group can spread out. There are two distinct living rooms – perfect for game nights, quiet reading, or catching up by the fireplace. A gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances awaits your chefs (or caterers!), and a grand dining room sets the stage for special meals together. All Ensuite Bedrooms: Each of our 5 bedrooms is a private suite featuring a king bed (4 kings and 1 queen), its own full bathroom, premium linens, and even a fireplace in five of the suites. No one has to compromise – every couple or individual gets a comfortable, private space to unwind. Historic Charm, Modern Comfort: Built in the 1800s and formerly a beloved B&B, Grand Laurel Oak Estate is a registered historic home updated with all the conveniences of today. Prime Location: Leave the cars in our free parking area and explore downtown Gainesville on foot – restaurants, cafes, and shops are just a few blocks away. The University of Florida and stadium are a 5-minute drive, making game days or campus visits a breeze. The home can also be rented as a 7 bedroom/ 7.5 bathroom home for additional guests. Despite being in the heart of town, the estate sits on a lush, fenced property, offering peace and privacy behind its oak-shaded gardens. We’ve hosted family reunions, small weddings, and corporate retreats – if you have a special event in mind, let’s talk! We love it when guests create magical moments here. Book your stay at Grand Laurel Oak Estate and discover why this home isn’t just a place to sleep, but an experience. We’re confident you’ll love the warmth, space, and character of our estate – and we can’t wait to host you!
