Property Description

This circa 1904 two-story in the heart of Springfield is just a few blocks from beloved Washington Park and welcomes you with an incredibly inviting front porch made for relaxing. Inside, warm living spaces showcase vintage built-ins, original woodwork and the craftsmanship that gives this home so much personality. A traditional staircase and foyer open to spacious living and dining rooms filled with natural light. An office/bedroom, half bath and kitchen complete the main floor. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, a generous full bath and a bonus room perfect for a den, nursery, second office or playroom adjoining one of the bedrooms. Storage abounds in the unfinished third floor offering additional possibilities for future use and personalization. An enclosed back porch retrofitted for main floor laundry, fenced backyard and two-car detached garage round out the property. This well-loved home is ready for its next chapter. For a buyer who appreciates the character of an older home and isn’t afraid to add a little sweat equity, the space, location and original charm provide a wonderful foundation to make it their own. Pre-inspection report available.
