Property Description
Extremely RARE find meets endless opportunity on this incredible property and unforgettable setting on the outskirts of Springfield. Discover over 6 gorgeous acres secluded in thick timber & positioned perfectly just minutes from the city, in the Pleasant Plains School District. This one of a kind countryside scene features an amazing 2+ story brick home from the 1900s maintained in all it's authentic glory, accompanied by similarly built & fully functional 2 story guest house. The grounds are riddled with outbuildings & barns including 3car detached garage near both homes. You'll find various patio(s), a separate screened/covered porch & even a built in tree house that all combine & present an alluring rustic ambiance similar to a scene you might see on a magazine cover. The home itself is incredibly well maintained w/undeniable craftsmanship & character. It would present well as a bed & breakfast or wedding venue. With lots of updates where needed mechanically, it's dual zoned HVAC equipped, with some replacement windows, newer roof, attic fan & it's brimming with authentic woodwork, HW floors & trim. Includes generator & commercial grade appliances in both kitchens, with many obvious & necessary improvements over the years. This historic home was originally occupied by Harriet Knudson who is best known as the founder of Lincoln Memorial Gardens at Lake Springfield in 1936. SQFT of accessory unit is 1019sqft with 1BR, 1BA & living/dining room combo (BR is entire 2nd floor).
