About 1716 S State St

Coming Soon 07/27/25. Charm is the name of the game with this lovely traditional bungalow! This home has all of the character of a Washington Park bungalow but with updates! Centrally located just 2 blocks from Washington Park you'll be just minutes from everything you need in Springfield! This home has so many newly updated features like: new 17K driveway, roof 2020, was fireplace, HVAC 2020, bathroom (full remodel). Most of the really expensive updates are done for you. There is just too much to love about this one, they have recently converted the fireplace to gas as well so a cozy fire in the fall and winter is definitely a must do! The large dining room/living room combo has lots of natural light and is all, beautifully finished hardwood (as well as the bathroom)! The curb appeal is off the charts with a beautifully landscaped back yard complete with pergola, flower beds, detached garage and fence. Since the new driveway was poured the basement has stayed dry which is very hard to find in this neighborhood. The basement is bright and clean and has a ton of storage and large laundry space. This home has been pre-inspected and is being sold as-reported.
