Sitting in Southern View with quiet streets & quick routes across Springfield, this perfectly updated bungalow delivers far more than you’d expect from its cute curbside appeal. A sharp, move-in-ready vibe carries from the front porch through the main level where newer wood-look flooring, bright natural light & a clean eat-in kitchen shine with crisp white cabinetry, dark stone-style counters new in ’24, modern wall oven & space to dine beneath the window. Two comfortable bedrooms anchor the main floor, while the finished lower level expands everyday living with a large family room featuring a built-in bar, bonus space ideal for office or guests, laundry & an additional bath. Big-ticket updates bring peace of mind including furnace (2020), A/C (2013), roof (2017), sump backup (2024), garage opener (2022) & new main waterline (2023). Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard with patio, shed storage & a practical 1-car garage — a polished, flexible home that’s easy to love in a location that keeps life simple, quiet & convenient.
