About 71 Fairfield St

Here’s your chance to own a piece of Springfield’s rich history in the heart of Forest Park! This 1905 Colonial sits proudly on quiet, tree-lined Fairfield St, surrounded by grand historic homes that earned Springfield its “City of Homes” title. With 5 bedrooms—four on the second floor and a fifth on the third, plus two bonus rooms on the third level—this spacious fixer-upper offers timeless character, high ceilings, and endless potential for buyers with vision. A welcoming front porch invites you to soak in the neighborhood charm, while out back a peaceful, grassy yard and screened-in porch offer your own private retreat. Roof is approximately 15 years young with plenty of life left, and ceiling damage in some rooms is unrelated to the roof’s condition. Build instant sweat equity while enjoying a lifestyle just steps from Forest Park’s trails, zoo, and gardens. Restore it, reimagine it, and make your mark — schedule your showing today before it’s gone!
