About this House

Mid-Century modern all-brick bungalow close to MSU and Drury. Owned by an architect, which is clear once you arrive at the home. You will notice a distinct metal gate which adds privacy for the garage and backyard. Walking to your front door you will find more original touches on the spacious front porch, which is perfect for meeting your neighbors. Inside the home, you will find beautiful hardwood flooring throughout. Custom built-ins innovate every inch of the home making it that much more functional, including a large built-in desk to help keep you organized. The large dining room invites groups of friends and family to enjoy your home. In the kitchen, it'll be a breeze to prepare those meals with the gas stove and solid countertops. Large bedrooms and two full baths on the main floor make this home comfortable. The oversized mudroom/pantry aid in keeping the home nice and tidy. Downstairs, you will find a modern living room with polished concrete flooring. The basement has plumbing ready for a third full bath if and when you're ready to expand. A separate outside entrance to the basement would make a great income property. The private backyard has an outdoor living and dining room that pictures don't do justice. The two car, extra-deep garage is perfect for the hobbyist who needs a shop to work in.

"I have lived in Midtown's Historic District for 15 years and my husband has lived in this neighborhood for over 22 years. The schools are the best in Springfield! They are the only International Baccalaureate school in the city for gifted students. Beautiful historic neighborhood with an active neighborhood association that is close to public parks and pools, shopping, night life, restaurants, cafes, theatres, etc..."
