About This Home
As of August 2017This home is just stunning! This home has been tastefully redone from top to bottom with new windows, doors, an updated bathroom and new electrical panel in 2009, a new roof, siding and gutters in 2011, an updated kitchen in 2011, new front stairs, 2014 and basement replacement windows in 2016. A ranch house with this square footage is very rare in Springfield, and the basement is ready to be refinished for even more space (including half bath plumbing already in place). The bedrooms are extremely spacious with lots of closet space and you will love the open concept living/dining/kitchen areas. Cozy up to the gorgeous fireplace in the winter and enjoy the private back yard in the summer. The garage has plenty of room for a car plus lawn supplies, and there is direct access into the basement. This one's a winner!
