What an absolute charmer! I love this house, can’t find a single thing I would change.
Beautiful!!
My old hometown!! Must say this is a really good looking house. Several older neighborhoods in Springfield have greatly suffered the last few decades, this one doesn’t look too bad though.
Noblesville, IN
The mantle and grate with overmantle upstairs is RAD! It probably came out of an older house. Great stylized sunburst window!
The leaded glass is so so so exquisite! Especially the sunburst (?)…didn’t see stained glass… one of the mos perfect 1890s home I have seen! I want this house! However the only thing not 4 me is the kitchen… the island does not do it 4 me😱 & kitchens can be remodeled to new owners taste of course… 1st change 4 me:-)
I love the sink but the island does not fit this house.
Yeah, take out that kitchen, and put it something that fits that beautiful ceiling!
So light and airy inside, not what I expected and a great price!
Charming, right down to the cobblestone street it’s on!
What a great price for this beauty. (Kelly, I love that you regularly include homes priced for “the rest of us”). I LOVE the light floors, they’re so beautiful, and add to the light and airy quality of this home. I also am wild about the downstairs light fixtures, and the cut out niche at the top of the stairs, by the leaded glass window is very interesting. I want to wake up every morning in the violet gray bedroom. Even the attic is aces!

Grandma got a facelift but she’s the same old gal!
Beautifull
This house makes my heart sing!!! I would (maybe) consider moving back to the cold for this place!
I.love.it. Whhhhyy don’t these stunning homes exist in this price range where I live?! 😭
I don’t mind the kitchen, even thought it doesn’t “match.” I could enjoy cooking in there.
Would love to finish the upstairs for a reading nook or library.
Such fun exterior colors!
Awesome!
