Description

University Heights - say less. One of the 4 original built houses by Carl Bissman himself! The builders knack for mixing period details, and popular modern conveniences in his designs were in itself inspirational! This historic home, inspired by English cottages, is now seeking new homeowners! Its charming curb appeal, complete with brick and stone accents, dreamy woodwork, immediately gives you that cozy cottage feel. Inside, stunning hardwoods and crown molding complement a fireplace and French doors, which provide private access to an adorable sun porch strung with lights for anyones appreciation of the finer details in life. The kitchen is a true masterpiece, featuring brand new light fixtures, granite countertops, top-of-the-line appliances like a gas range, as well as a breakfast nook. Upstairs, experience luxury with a large primary bedroom and a beautiful primary bath that includes a walk-in shower and a stained glass window. Every detail is meticulously crafted! There are also two additional bedrooms and a full additional bathroom! The exterior is equally impressive, with a pristine sunroom leading to a private deck and a (negotiable) hot tub. Outside, you'll find a cozy fire pit, a storage shed, a TWO car detached garage, and plenty of room for a garden. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of history in University Heights minutes from Mercy hospital, and Phelps Grove Park!

    "Don't let crime statistics scare you, the Mercy ER is very nearby which receives lots of mandatory reports that often skew crime statistics. Phelps Grove park is in easy walking distance. Other places you can walk to include Starbucks, Bass Pro, a grocery store and Sunshine Grade School. This neighborhood could easily be considered the center of town, nearly everything Springfield has to offer is within a 5 minute drive. The neighborhood itself is very quiet. The homes vary from quaint to fabulous and tenants consist mostly of older couples or professionals. There are very few rentals."
