Craftsman

As you approach this home, it feels like you've stepped into a fairytale. Beautiful landscaping and a charming covered porch front welcome you home to this Arts & Crafts cottage, which has been expanded and lovingly renovated to offer modern comforts while maintaining its history and character. The location offers both suburban green space and the convenience of walkable restaurants just steps down the street. The front porch is airy and inviting, and features beautiful pine floors. Enter into the first of multiple living spaces, a sun-splashed front room perfect for a den, playroom, or formal dining area, complete with original stone fireplace, replete with warmth and charm. A complete custom design and structural reimagining of the kitchen is truly a showstopper, immediately inviting family gathering and entertaining in this heart of the home. There is plenty of room for everyone to gather between the spacious quartz island with ample space for bar stools as well as built-in bench seating with storage. Striking two-tone cabinets in white and midnight, farmhouse sink, a stunning white ceramic satin finish subway tile backsplash, brushed gold hardware, and a full suite of thoughtfully curated top of the line stainless steel appliances are a chef's dream. Appliances included are a GE smart double wall oven, LG french door smart refrigerator, Samsung 36" gas cooktop, KitchenAid built-in microwave, GE convertible range hood, and a Bosch dishwasher.  Everyday dining is elevated in this space, complemented by thoughtful accents such as wine storage, coffee station with additional storage, and a walk-in pantry! A spacious family room with soaring ceilings completes the living space, easily accommodating large furniture and perfect for gathering for games (go birds!). Step outside to find a two-level extension of your living space to outdoors - a custom designed Timbertech deck, just added in 2025, offers 472 square feet of additional space to entertain and enjoy. Each deck is gated, and has automatic under step lighting. A perfect place to grill, complete with outdoor mounted television, overlooking the idyllic grass backyard with included cedar swing set with a slide and rock climbing wall.On the main level, you'll find the first of two full baths located off the hall between the kitchen/dining room and main level bedrooms - convenient for guests. This first floor bedroom wing offers a renovated bathroom featuring marble floors and a bathtub shower combination.Two sun-splashed bedrooms, each with a large closet and two windows, complete this level. Downstairs, find a large basement perfect for storage and the washer and dryer. Take the stairs up to the second floor to find a spacious primary suite, a truly serene retreat with both a walk-in closet and additional storage closets in the eaves. A king size bedroom set fits with ease. Beautiful pine floors continue on this level into the second full bathroom, which features and over-sized glass shower with pebble floor. Bathroom has ample linen storage space. Additional fourth bedroom on this level with tree top views over Saxer Ave.  This home has been lovingly maintained and updated, and meticulously cared for. The backyard is spacious for playtime and entertaining, yet the lawn and grass are a breeze to maintain. Off street parking in the rear of the property for 3+ cars and a large storage shed is perfect for your garden tools, toys, sports equipment, and more. Located in the award-winning Springfield school district, find the library, parks, and restaurants just blocks away for the ultimate convenience.
