Old Hill Multifamily Homes & Duplexes for Sale

Old Hill, a mile east of downtown Springfield, Massachusetts, is a neighborhood with a rich African American history and a mix of Victorian and traditional homes. Recent investments have spurred revitalization, with new home construction, park upgrades, and a new school. The area features compact lots, many with covered front porches or balconies, though some homes remain vacant. The city and organizations like Way Finders are actively rehabilitating these properties. Donna Blake Park and Harriet Tubman Park, both recently upgraded, offer playgrounds, splash pads, and fishing at Watershops Pond. The Springfield Legacy Trail connects these parks with others in Old Hill and Six Corners. The Dunbar Center, saved by Mt. Zion Baptist Church, continues to offer recreational programs. Springfield College nearby hosts art exhibits and sports events. St. John’s Congregational Church, a historic site, remains a community pillar, along with other active churches like Wesley United Methodist Church. The Mason Square Branch of the Springfield City Library is a community hub with various events. Old Hill is close to the Metro Center and South End neighborhoods, home to Springfield Museums and the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. The compact layout and sidewalk-lined streets make it possible to walk to restaurants, churches, and schools. Pioneer Valley Transit Authority buses stop throughout, particularly along State and Hancock streets, and reach downtown in as little as 10 minutes. State Street provides access to Interstate 91, leading to Bradley International Airport, about 20 miles away.
