Enos Park Multifamily Home for Sale

Enos Park, one of Springfield's oldest neighborhoods, is known for its historic charm and active community efforts to revitalize the area. Positioned just north of downtown and adjacent to the medical district, Enos Park is home to the Historic Edwards Place, the oldest building in Springfield on its original foundation. This Italianate mansion, maintained by the Springfield Art Association (SAA), hosts events like Victorian teas and murder mystery dinners. The SAA also runs an arts center offering classes in various disciplines and an annual Fine Arts Fair in September. The Enos Park Neighborhood Improvement Association (EPNIA) works to preserve the neighborhood's character, organizing community events and safety patrols. The neighborhood features homes from the early 1900s, showcasing Queen Anne, Italianate, and Arts and Crafts styles, though many properties require restoration. Enos Park includes a central green space with a pavilion and playground, and the Enos Park Neighborhood Gardens, which provides free produce through weekly pop-up farmers' markets. The area is popular with medical students and hospital employees due to its proximity to Memorial Hospital and St. John's Hospital, both less than a mile away. Downtown Springfield is just 1.5 miles away, offering a short commute. Local amenities include two grocery stores within walking distance and a few dining options like Subway and Homestyle Café. The neighborhood is quieter due to overpasses that mitigate train noise.
