Charming, beautifully kept ranch on Springfield's north side — truly move-in ready. Built in 1975 on a crawl space, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home has been lovingly maintained and it shows. The living room features rich wood-look flooring, a built-in oak entertainment hutch, and a large front window that fills the space with natural light. A separate formal dining room with a chandelier and pass-through window to the kitchen makes hosting easy. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, tile backsplash, generous counter space, full appliance package, and main-floor laundry right where you need it. Both bedrooms are carpeted with ceiling fans and good closet space. The bathroom has been thoughtfully updated with a walk-in shower with glass doors, safety grab bars, and a solid-surface vanity. The standout bonus: the former 2-car garage has been converted into a versatile finished space with built-in shelving, counters, and workbench area — ideal as a workshop, home office, craft room, or rec space. Add a closet and it easily becomes a third bedroom. Covered carport plus a wide concrete drive provides plenty of parking. Established neighborhood, mature landscaping, quiet street.
