Step back in time in this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom brick two-story just a short walk to Washington Park! The large living room features a vintage fireplace and is ideal for hosting gatherings while the current family room could also be used as a formal dining room. The kitchen at the rear of the home features a wall of cabinets and steps down to the sunroom for flexible living space. There is a main floor laundry nook off the kitchen as well as an additional full bathroom for convenience. Upstairs, the three bedrooms that share a hall bath provide restful retreats and plenty of closet space, considering the era. A highlight of this property is the artist studio located above the attached garage—with barnwood siding, it’s a space flooded with natural light, ideal for painting, crafting, or a serene home office. Outside, there is a privacy-fenced side yard. The roof is approximately 10 years old. Located in a desirable neighborhood just steps away from Washington Park, this historic gem offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Springfield’s pre-Civil War history—schedule a showing today!
