Property Description
This charming English Cottage was built by William E. Johnson for Robert & Bertha Wilson, the owners of Missouri Neon Company. It was the first house in Springfield to be lit by neon lights! They owned this storybook cottage from 1937 to 1957. Now, you have the chance to own this cozy cottage nestled among the trees on Historic Walnut Street! The home is made of Carthage stone, stucco, and wood, and covered in wood shake shingles. There are beautiful gardens surrounding the house. There's a lovely covered front porch, perfect for a morning coffee or to enjoy a summer's rain. You'll notice there's a long concrete parking area so you and your guests don't have to park in the street. And if you have an RV, it fits perfectly! There's a wood fence surrounding the property, with several access points and a two-car garage with a sunroom. As you enter the home through the Dutch door, you'll be greeted with the storybook charm you'd expect: a wood beam ceiling, fireplace, and lights that surround the room (originally neon). There are original hardwood floors and crown molding. Once you pass the dining room, you have your choice of master bedrooms. The first-floor bedroom has access to a full bath with a walk-in shower and access to the laundry room. On the second floor, you go up the spiral staircase to a large bedroom with its own bath and sitting area. The updated kitchen has granite countertops, stainless appliances with a double oven. Next to the kitchen is the living room with a beautiful view of the back yard garden. There's a lovely pergola and hot tub (staying). It's quite private, surrounded by trees. You are close to Cherry & Pickwick, Downtown, MSU & stores and restaurants. Put this Storybook Cottage on your list to see, it may be your next dream home!
