Welcome to this meticulously maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath brick ranch in Springfield’s established Melrose subdivision. Built in 1972 and offering 1,263 square feet of comfortable, move-in-ready living on a slab foundation, this home delivers a rare combination of setting, care, and location. The property backs directly up to Virgil A. Mabra Park (no backyard neighbors!) and sits just one block from the iconic Hartman Rock Garden — giving you a peaceful green backdrop and one of Springfield’s most beloved attractions right outside your door. Inside, you’ll find a warm mix of laminate and carpet flooring throughout, an updated bathroom, and a kitchen featuring laminate countertops and refreshed cabinetry. Two of the three bedrooms have been barely used and remain in pristine condition, offering fresh, well-preserved spaces ready for their next chapter. All appliances convey, making this home truly turn-key. The big-ticket items are already handled: a new roof in 2019 and a brand-new main sewer line in 2024 provide lasting peace of mind. Outside, relax on the covered front porch, entertain in the fully fenced backyard — complete with a 10×20 wooden deck, 10×12 shed, and built in fire pit — and enjoy the convenience of a one-car garage. Homes this well cared for, in a setting this special, don’t come along often. Schedule your showing today!
