About this home
Single Family · Built 1890 · Historic
Welcome to 1621 N 8th St, where charm, craftsmanship, and modern updates come together in this irresistible North End ranch. This move-in ready 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in Springfield is ideally located near the fairgrounds, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, making it a perfect fit for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize. Step inside to tall ceilings, gorgeous original hardwood floors, and a stunning stone fireplace that anchors the living space with warmth and character. Thoughtful updates include granite countertops, newer appliances, and updated windows for comfort and efficiency. The kitchen flows into a one-of-a-kind dining space featuring a custom-built table with matching granite that will remain with the home. A beautiful built in, granite topped buffet coordinates with the table and would be a fabulous coffee bar! The bathroom offers a beautifully tiled shower and coordinating granite surfaces for a polished feel. Enjoy the inviting front porch or relax on the covered back deck overlooking a partially fenced yard. The professionally designed landscaping creates a setting straight out of a garden magazine, complete with a plant map and legend. An oversized 2-car garage adds extra functionality.
