In addition, a licensed electrician updated most of the outlets throughout the house. Brand new light fixtures & contemporary ceiling fans were installed in almost every room. Professional stucco repairs were completed on two sides of the home & insulation was installed on the 3rd floor. A reverse osmosis water filtration system was installed under the kitchen sink. You'll love relaxing or entertaining on the screened in porch. Enjoy the convenience of the sprinkler system, the detached 2 car garage and the backyard garden areas.
Forest Park Heights Historic District, located between Forest Park and the Longmeadow line, is a historic and residential Springfield neighborhood with grand Victorian streetscapes and a park-side setting. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Sumner Avenue near the Forest Park entrance, where porch-lined blocks meet a steady stream of walkers and cyclists. Architectural details—turrets, stained glass, and deep front porches—define the streets, with mature trees framing wide sidewalks. Forest Park anchors daily routines with trails, ponds, and seasonal events. The Zoo in Forest Park & Education Center and the Barney Estate add cultural weight to the park edge. Nearby, the Forest Park Branch Library offers a quiet civic counterpoint to the greenery.
