About This Home

A once in a generation opportunity to own one of Springfield's most distinctive and historically significant homes; designed by renowned architects Helmle & Helmle. Celebrating approximately its 100th year, this remarkable 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers a rare combination of architectural significance, timeless craftsmanship and an irreplaceable location on prestigious Wiggins Avenue. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home showcases elegant period details, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, beautiful millwork and exceptional curb appeal. With its expansive gathering spaces, including a formal dining room, spacious living room with a wood burning fireplace, inviting family room with a gas fireplace, and a screened porch spanning approximately 272 square feet. The generous floor plan provides exceptional flexibility, while the oversized primary suite offers a true retreat. Historic details tell the story of this home's past, including a working servant call button built into the dining room floor and original architectural plans that are displayed within the home. Additional highlights include a Generac generator, a walk up attic offering incredible storage potential, and a built in basement grill that famously kept meals cooking during the Ice Storm of 1978. Rich in history, charm, and architectural character, this one of a kind property presents a rare opportunity to own a home where the next chapter is ready to be written.
