Make your home in the beautifully stewarded H.N. Clark House at 66 Fairfield Street. Built in 1904, this Colonial Revival residence with a full-width front porch offers 6 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a 2-car garage, and a sunroom overlooking the fenced backyard. Inside, a remarkable array of preserved historic details includes a Dutch entry door, pocket doors, leaded glass, hardwood floors with inlaid borders, brass hardware and doorknobs, original kitchen cabinetry, and a butler’s pantry. Outside, original garage barn doors and a well-maintained slate roof with upgraded copper valleys add period charm. Thoughtful upgrades enhance comfort and efficiency, including a two-zone forced hot air heating system, full insulation, stainless steel appliances, and many updated spaces. The home also holds the rare distinction of standing beside 74 Fairfield Street—the childhood home of Springfield native Dr. Seuss. Showings deferred until Open House: Sat 4/4, 9:30–11am.
