Historic Charm Meets Modern Living in University Heights -- Nestled in the heart of University Heights, this charming and beautifully preserved 1933 Carl Bissman-built home offers the perfect blend of historic character and modern convenience. With over 3,000 square feet of living space, including three bedrooms, two -and-a-half baths, two inviting living areas, a sunroom, and a dining area, this home is designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. Imagine starting your day with coffee on the stately front porch, greeting neighbors as they stroll past on their morning walks. Inside, the warmth of original hardwood floors and timeless architectural details welcome you. The home's two living areas offer flexibility—one for cozy evenings by the gas fireplace and another for casual gatherings. The updated kitchen is both stylish and functional, creating a natural hub for cooking and conversation. The primary suite on the main level has been thoughtfully expanded to provide a private retreat, featuring a dual vanity, soaking tub, and a custom walk-in closet. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms offer plenty of space, including an extra large closet in the second bedroom. Step outside, and you'll find an outdoor living space designed for connection and relaxation. Whether you're hosting friends for a summer barbecue in the outdoor kitchen, enjoying a peaceful evening under the string lights, or unwinding with a book in the lush backyard, this home offers a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The outdoor shed, black metal and privacy fences, in-ground sprinklers surrounding the home, and upgraded exterior lighting add both charm and convenience. Recent updates, including a new hot water heater (2024), restored front porch and brick sidewalk, and a whole-house generator, ensure peace of mind. The formerly-named "smoking room" has been transformed into a bright and inviting sunroom or office, while the roof has been inspected and remains in excellent condition. All windows have been replaced to enhance energy efficiency without compromising the home's character. Beyond the home itself, the neighborhood adds to the appeal. Located just minutes from shopping, dining, and parks, you'll find yourself at the center of a vibrant, walkable community. Evening strolls through the historic streets, friendly waves from neighbors, and the convenience of being anywhere in Springfield within minutes create a lifestyle that is both charming and practical. This is more than a homeit's a place where history meets modern living, where memories are made, and where a true sense of community thrives. Don't miss the opportunity to experience the best of University Heights living.
