Built

Solid two-family in Springfield's Old Hill neighborhood — a true sweat-equity opportunity. The big-ticket exterior work is already done: newer roof, newer siding, and newer windows mean the envelope is tight and your budget goes straight into the interior. Built in 1914, 1,924 sq ft, 6 bedrooms and 2 baths across two units, on a 7,501 sq ft lot. Interior is in need of renovation and priced accordingly — bring your vision and your contractor. Strong rental demand and recent comparable sales on this street support the upside. Easy to show. Sold as-is; buyer to perform all due diligence and verify all information.
