Description
This darling bungalow is the definition of a cream puff — clean, updated, beautifully maintained, and shows pride of ownership throughout! Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, this charming home offers over 1,650 square feet of comfortable living space with thoughtful updates throughout. A well-planned 2001 addition expanded both the kitchen and the primary bedroom, creating a more spacious and functional layout, adding a second full bathroom and additional closet space for extra convenience. The heart of the home is the inviting kitchen, featuring solid wood Amish-built cabinetry, generous workspace, room for a large kitchen table, and includes all kitchen appliances — an added value buyers will love. Enjoy the ease of a main floor laundry, with optional laundry hookups still available in the basement for added flexibility. The partially finished basement provides additional living space along with two separate storage rooms, perfect for organization and hobbies. Outside, the screened in front porch adds relaxation space, and the low-maintenance landscaped yard offers great curb appeal without a lot of upkeep. The oversized 2-car garage, also built in 2001, provides secure parking, extra storage, and alley access with garbage pickup conveniently located behind the garage. This absolute gem was the site of many gatherings, filled with love of family and friends. It combines charm, function, and thoughtful improvements in a peaceful setting — truly a must-see!

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy grandson gets sent home for spitting mucus in the trash can but they claimed he was throwing up! So for every time he excretes mucus out, automatically they assume he throws up! I taught my grandson not to spit his mucus on his hands and that he could run to the bathroom if he can't find a tissue to spit his mucus , either to spit it out in my trash can the toilet or get a tissue. So I guess that's what he'd be doing at school, spitting his mucus out in the trash can. When I spoke to his principal over the phone, she said she wasn't there when it happened but according to her, she said that the nurse said that my grandson threw up. I was like, how did she know? Did she look or dig in the trash can to see the vomit? I know it sounds like a harsh question but as his grandmother who sees this boy every single day, I know that my grandson is not throwing up. He has a cold but not throwing up! The principal seemed irritated by my comment but seriously that was a legit question though. It may not be concerning to her that my grandson missed 4 days already as what she said, " Oh, your grandson only missed 4 days of school!" Only 4 days?!! Well 4 days of absences for me is seriously a big problem as I want my grandson to be at school to learn and to be around other children. Guess what? Every time I picked him up after the so called throwing up comment and every time I take him home, he is fine! Nothing wrong with him! Not even once, that he had spit any mucus nor threw up! So how do I expect my grandson to learn if he's always been sent home by their so called school nurse? I also thought that you have to have a high temperature before you'd be sent home. Well apparently, that's changed! You can't spit mucus out anymore without a proof of you throwing up!Parent Review3y ago - Springfield Southeast High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGoing to Southeast has changed my life in more ways than one. Don't believe the criticism from those who haven't gone here. We show great school spirit and the teachers genuinely want to teach the kids. There are a few bad apples but isn't that true for all schools? Don't believe the hoaxs.Student Review6mo ago - Jefferson Middle School
