About 810 E Edwards St

Incredible Opportunity to Own a Piece of Springfield History! Nestled in the heart of Springfield and overlooking the Abraham Lincoln National Historic Site Village, this stunning 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is rich with history and charm. Stated to be built in the 1850s, this property—formerly known as "The Inn on Edwards"—has served as offices to various political figures and even operated as a beloved Bed & Breakfast. Sitting on a larger commercial-zoned parcel, 810 E Edwards showcases remarkable woodwork, tall ceilings, and historic character throughout. A wrap-around staircase leads to three spacious upstairs bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom with walk-out deck access to enjoy the scenic surroundings. The main floor features an expansive layout, including a large kitchen with a spiral staircase descending to the basement. Here, you’ll find built-in bookshelves from its time as an office space for stated Springfield officials, adding to the home's historical significance. While many updates have been completed, this gem is ready for a new owner to bring their own needed touches—interior updates, fresh paint, and boiler repair, etc. —to restore its full potential. Don’t miss this rare chance to own a piece of Springfield’s history in an unbeatable location! Great opportunity for your Personal Residence, Bed and Breakfast or many other options!
