About This Home
This one is an absolute gem! Spotless, move-in ready cape style home in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Springfield. The property is tastefully manicured both inside and outside. Patterned oak floors throughout this cozy, yet deceivingly roomy home. The inside walls and woodwork were recently professionally painted. Features include central air (recently serviced), a ‘nest’ smart thermostat, new washer, a double oven, sprinkler system, and trex deck. Upgrades to be noted: All new blinds, new bedroom/closet/bathroom doors, recessed lighting in LR, TV outlet above fireplace, and newly sodded lawn both front and back. You won’t want to miss this impressively maintained and beautifully cared for home! Don’t delay!
