The tastefully remodeled, timeless kitchen features wood cabinetry, sleek black pulls, a stainless dishwasher, a gas oven range, and an expansive coffee station/buffet server.

A private office/nursery and a convenient half bath complete the first floor.Upstairs, you will find three spacious bedrooms. The primary bedroom features a spectacular custom closet designed for ultimate organization, comfortably showcasing over 35 pairs of shoes on custom shelving alongside built-in cubbies and tie racks. The two secondary bedrooms feature gorgeous wood floors preserved under the carpeting. The tastefully updated, oversized full bath offers a spacious layout that provides future potential to create a private primary ensuite. BONUS space including sitting/TV/REC space, 2nd full bath and even a workshop in the partially finished basement. Outside, a covered front porch welcomes you to lush, green lawns maintained by an in-ground sprinkler system, framed by beautiful stonework, retaining walls, and a fully fenced yard. A detached storage shed with electricity (a former pool house) adds excellent utility, while the 1-car garage features a rear door opening directly to the patio for seamless mudroom and kitchen access. Unbeatable location: just a 3-minute walk to Baystate Hospital, a short walk to Mercy Hospital, and a 6-8 minute stroll to Van Horn Park’s reservoir and walking trails.

Liberty Heights, located between Forest Park and East Forest Park, is a residential and civic Springfield neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a steady, lived-in streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Liberty Street and Belmont Avenue corridor, where corner markets, barbershops, and takeout counters keep the sidewalks in motion. Early-20th-century two- and three-family homes mix with compact apartment buildings, giving the area a classic Springfield rhythm of porches, bay windows, and small front yards. Forest Park’s paths and ponds shape daily routines with green space at the edge of the grid. The nearby Springfield Museums campus adds a cultural counterpoint to the neighborhood’s practical, local feel. Bus routes along the main arterials connect the area to downtown without changing its residential pace.
