Nestled in Springfield’s historic McKnight neighborhood—known as part of the beloved “City of Homes”—this beautifully preserved Victorian exudes timeless charm and character! Currently used as a single-family but once a multi-family, the possibilities are endless. The exterior has been meticulously maintained, showcasing the pride of ownership and respect for this home’s architectural heritage. Inside, soaring ceilings and gracious proportions greet you throughout the main level. The large eat-in kitchen opens to an oversized dining room, perfect for entertaining. A pocket French door leads to the formal living room with wood-burning fireplace, while an adjacent room now serves as a main-floor bedroom with two closets. A refreshed full bath completes this level. Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, another updated bath, and potential for a second kitchen with porch access. Clean, bright basement with laundry area. Truly a gem of McKnight!
