Property Description
Beautiful historic home located on a huge lot overlooking Williams Blvd. in Washington Park. This 6 bedroom home dates to early Springfield in the 1830's where Col. John Williams, an acquaintance of Abraham Lincoln, built his home. Additions were added over the years and the home remained in his family for over 100 yrs. A carriage house at the rear now serves as a garage w/loft above, (this space was a small apt w/bathroom yrs ago). This grand home features a library w/built-in bookcases, Butler's pantry, 4 fireplaces and other features expected in a home belonging to a person of such stature. You'll love the great front porch for enjoying the view of Washington Park Blvd. Upon entering, your guests are greeted to a magnificent foyer w/FP & adjacent Reception room. Off the LR on the 1st floor you will find the library & spacious family room to unwind in. The lovely DR has the original chandelier and has hosted many stately dinners and parties over the decades. Upstairs, two of the bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath with another having a half bath. The Primary bedroom ensuite has a lovely attached sunroom thru the French doors. A 6th BR can be found on the 3rd fl. The mechanicals & structural components have been attended to over the decades w/new furnace & AC 2016.
