Urban Meyer’s Gainesville House is on the Market For $1.7 Million
College Football February 21st. 2012, 12:09pm
Looking for property in Gainesville? You can buy Urban Meyer’s house. The six bedroom, five and a half bath, 6,700 square foot home can be yours for just $1.7 million. It’s possible he slept there a few times between 20-hour office benders and recruiting trips.
Highlights? Pool/solarium complex to keep out the palmetto bugs. Also, the largest sectional couch we have ever seen. It looks as though it would fit about 12, comfortably. You could potentially get both starting lines on there. The Meyers went the double coffee table route and someone would still need to get out of his or her seat to get chips.

How is it that any piece of real estate in Gainesville lists for more than $239,000?
February 21st, 2012 at 12:13 PM
I’d would have thought $2MM would have gone a little further in Gainseville.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:14 PM
Is it just me or is there a lot of wood in that house? And it’s all pine-y colored. Yuck.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:14 PM
Yes, two solariums. Quite a find.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:15 PM
And if I’m mega rich, there’s no way my swimming pool is small and lagoony. Get me an Olympic sized lap pool, thankyouverymuch. With a 10 foot diving board.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:15 PM
Looking at that dump, you can tell why Meyer never spent time with his family.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:16 PM
Time to Sell Bitch.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:17 PM
It was the SEC. You’d think he could have lived on the beach and been helicoptered in to work.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:17 PM
Never been a fan of sectional couches.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:17 PM
You can’t beat the almost 1:1 ratio of bedroom to bathroom. You can absolutely destroy a toilet in that house after a taco bell bender and no one would be the wiser.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:17 PM
$253 per square foot? Yikes.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:17 PM
-What kind of wood is this?
-I think it’s pine
-Pine is good
-Yeah pine is alright

Seriously though… the Gainesville real estate market is 80% double-wides. I’m shocked that $2M couldn’t get you a house twice as nice/large, and a bigger pool.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:18 PM
I’d want to be parachuted into the stadium every Saturday.
Or possibly Fan Man.
You know that guy killed himself in the middle of the wilderness? Good times.

They have to keep the pools enclosed down there because Florida has 18 inch long roaches. Or something like that.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:18 PM
Not me.
I want one of those pool bar setups like you see at a Sandals resort.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:19 PM

You more of a fan of the Todd and Margo modernist look?
February 21st, 2012 at 12:19 PM
I wonder if that couch reclines and has leg rests that kick out? Because Irving Meyer is classy like that.
I bet it’s 100% imported Italian nylon.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:20 PM
the palmetto bugs.
in Texas we called those things cockroaches. That was before I’d ever seen a german cockroach.

Also, snakes and alligators.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:20 PM
Does it come with that gaudy 2009 BCS title rug that’s in the basement?
February 21st, 2012 at 12:21 PM
I want a bowling alley in my future house.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:22 PM

none of that wood is pine, nor is it pine-y colored.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:23 PM
Wow, 16 comments in about Urban Meyer’s abode and no Nikki Meyer reference?
You guys are slipping!
February 21st, 2012 at 12:23 PM
I want a pinewood derby track in my future house. And an entire floor that’s a slotcar track.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:25 PM
I want heated bathroom floors and heated toilet seats in my future house.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:25 PM
What is it, oak? I dont like it.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:25 PM
it is a fucking assload of wood though. Wood everywhere. Too much wood. Some custom cabinet maker probably ran through a hundred thousand dollars worth of whatever fancy hardwood that is.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:26 PM
Pretty my every house in Florida has a solarium, right?
February 21st, 2012 at 12:27 PM
What is it, oak? I dont like it.
I can’t really tell. It’s got almost no visible grain. All of that wood lacks any character, which is what I don’t like about it.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:27 PM
Gotta love that warm “man you just know some phlebitis riddled trucker took a big shit here” seat feeling you could only get at a Jersey Turnpike service area bathroom. Now available in the comfort of your own home!
February 21st, 2012 at 12:27 PM
Is Gainseville as hellish as bizarre news reports have led me to believe? A semi detached home went for $900,000 3 doors down from me. It took a week and had zero solariums. Seems very cheap.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:28 PM
I’m sure that solarium keeps out more than just giant flying cockroaches. Snakes, alligators, big biting waterbugs, giant escaped Indonesian lizards. Florida is rife with crazy shit.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:29 PM
I’m guessing it is cypress wood. And, by guessing, I thought Florida has cypress trees + Google and then something came up.

Infinity pool w/ swim up bar or get out of here with your weak gear.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:29 PM
Seems cheaper than to hire a guy.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:30 PM
Yeah, Urban must be friends with a wood guy or something
February 21st, 2012 at 12:30 PM
Those wood built-ins are a shade WT. Where’s he from, Ohio? Makes sense.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:31 PM
you know what is really ugly? The table and chairs in what I assume is the nook. Those were probably really expensive, but they’re not nice at all.
They don’t come with the house, but still.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:31 PM
Also the ability to swim under a wall and straight into my bedroom.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:31 PM
I’ll do it for free and a pack of cigarettes.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:31 PM
Lizards are the most plentiful critter. they find a way to get through the screen.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:32 PM
You point me to these free cigarettes and you are hired.

I don’t think you could pay me enough to live in Gainseville. Maybe I just wasn’t looking in the right places, but when I was there there a few falls back there was absolutely nothing going on. Maybe the football team had an away game or something. The campus was nice, but that’s about it.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:32 PM
Snakes, alligators, big biting waterbugs, giant escaped Indonesian lizards. Florida is rife with crazy shit. Clay
I flew into Florida for the first time several years ago and noticed every cookie cutter had a pool and that it was covered. I thought why would anyone want their pool under a roof. The arab taxi driver pretty much said you just wrote.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:32 PM
I’ll take a swim up bar, but no way on the Infinity. How on earth would you know how far you’ve gone? And how would I practice my flip turns?
February 21st, 2012 at 12:33 PM
I’m with dewar on the more decorative pool versus the olympic pool. If I ever win the lottery, I’m buying enough land so I can put 3 holes of golf on it. Also tennis courts.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:33 PM
I’m guessing it is cypress wood.
that makes sense, because cypress is really, really expensive. So when you’ve got your brand new money, and want to show it (and have no idea how), you fill your house with ultra expensive wood. Everywhere. All the same. No variety at all, just lots of the most expensive wood there is.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:34 PM
The pool should be a higher elevation, and should have a water park type of slide that slides right into your master bathroom into an enclosed bath area.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:34 PM

I’ve spent a good amount of time in Florida.. especially South Florida where they rarely get hard freezes… there’s some crazy bug/lizard action going on down there.

Point me to the most robable convenience store in your area.

i miss geckoes on the windows.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:37 PM
The last time I was in a swim up bar I threw up. I only managed to run about 10 steps away. You have any idea how difficult it is to puke run hammered in a swim up bar?
February 21st, 2012 at 12:38 PM
heated bathroom floors
Easy – at my old house, I retiled my master bath and included radiant heat built in – it was cheap and actually very nice. I tell everyone to add it if you’re doing any tile in any room.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:38 PM
I want a built in water slide from the third floor down to the pool. Like in Blank Check.

It’s like a mini-Jurassic Park with those things.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:40 PM
That just made me remember how bad the Jurassic Park game was for SNES.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:41 PM
Pretty certain the wood’s maple. That’s what we have and the kitchen cabinets look very similar.
February 21st, 2012 at 12:41 PM
I want my future lottery mansion to include a portion of the house recreated to be like the Temple in Legends of the Hidden Temple.. Just no guardians.

I like where your head is at.
I’m going to use my considerable influence to have convicted sex offenders signed over to me and I will make them dress up like Wheelers from Return to Oz, then I’m going to hunt them for sport and make them disappear from the system.

None of you potheads mentioned anything about a designer bong in each room?

I think the Genesis game was pretty solid and you could play as a raptor, but I might have just made that up.
