Step into a piece of history! This classic Colonial was the very first home constructed on this historic street and has been cherished by the same family since 1950. Inside, more than a century of character remains, with high ceilings, elegant wood-trimmed windows, a spacious living room centered around a fireplace, and a gracious dining room made for gathering. Recently removed carpeting revealed beautiful hardwood floors throughout the first level, with more wood floors waiting beneath the second floor carpeting. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including an impressively sized primary. A versatile rear first floor room with its own full bath offers exciting possibilities as an additional bedroom, office, studio, or hobby space. Even more potential awaits in the large unfinished attic and dry basement. Improvements include updated electrical, some newer plumbing, a newer boiler, and a water heater installed in 2024. Outside, enjoy an inviting front porch, manageable fenced backyard, and two-car garage. Located in Springfield's historic Gleenwood Section of Atwater Park, near the Chicopee line, with convenient access to Baystate Medical Center, shopping, parks, recreation, and area amenities.
Chicopee Center, located between the Chicopee River and the Connecticut River, is a civic and historic Chicopee neighborhood with a classic downtown grid and mill-era brick architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Center Street at Springfield Street, where storefronts, cafés, and municipal buildings set a steady, daytime bustle. City Hall anchors the streetscape with formal civic presence, while the Chicopee Public Library adds a quieter, study-and-stroll rhythm. Nearby, the Polish Center of Discovery and Learning and the Chicopee Center Canalwalk bring local history into view along the old industrial corridor. Side streets mix triple-deckers and compact single-family homes, with pocket parks and river edges shaping the geography.
