Description

WEST-END Springfield, near Washington Park. Such a great place to call home; quiet area that brings you back to yesteryear when the streets were brick (and this one is) and the homes had full span front porches, open floor plan (before it was even a "thing") between the living and dining rooms. This home is charming, updated appropriately, new shaker kitchen cabinetry & vinyl flooring, all new ceiling fans, new carpet in living and dining rooms, hardwood floors in bedrooms and an original cast iron soak for hours deep tub! Full basement, good for canning veggies (skip the supermarket) an inviting laundry area, and extra storage. Outside, you will love the fully fenced yard, newly rocked driveway, and a nice garage for your car! Who doesn't want to live in this home on Holmes Avenue!! Bring your written preapproval for financing and call your Realtor today.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from July 31, 2025
