For Sale - Active
2 Units

Exciting investment at 1840 S. Springfield! This 2-flat gem offers spacious 2-bed, 1-bath units with potential for expansion into the full, partially finished basement. The basement has a kitchenette, a full bathroom and a bedroom and could be duplexed with the first floor unit for even more possibilities. Significant renovations and upgrades are needed, but this home has tons of possibilities. Each level has an enclosed back porch, ample storage, and original wood work that boasts the character. The home has a wrought iron front gate and a well kept entryway and vestibule. The garage is gone, but a versatile slab awaits your creative touches. Don't miss out on the chance to be part of this transformation - this property won't last long!
