Property Description

A rare opportunity on Historic Walnut Street! Sometimes known as the ''Busiek House,'' this exquisite turn-of-the-century Craftsman was the home of Dr. Busiek, a Springfield pediatrician and avid tennis player. Set on approximately 1.31 acres in the treasured Walnut Street historic neighborhood and coveted Roundtree School district, this remarkable estate blends Springfield history, architectural grandeur and modern luxury-and is currently receiving a new roof. Its history extends beyond the home itself. From the 1920s through the 1980s, the property's tennis court was home to the Springfield Tennis Club, a distinctive legacy continued today with full-size tennis and basketball courts. A sweeping covered porch and authentic leaded-glass entry open to beautiful hardwood floors, majestic columns, a grand staircase, numerous chandeliers and new plantation shutters. Two gas fireplaces add warmth, including one with an exquisite French marble mantel. Two sunrooms, 4+ bedrooms, two full and two half baths offer generous living space. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a gas range and double ovens. Heated floors warm the kitchen, bathrooms and basement. The glamorous primary suite features an extraordinary walk-in dressing room with a custom dressers and glass-enclosed cabinetry. Its opulent bath offers double sinks, a separate mirrored makeup sink, a soaking tub, and a deluxe walk-in shower. The refinished basement offers surround sound, a full bar, wine chiller and a concealed bookcase leading to a safe room with a valuables safe and exterior escape hatch. Mature grounds, an Italian-style fountain, and a dedicated irrigation well complete this extraordinary property. Minutes from MSU and downtown, the Busiek House is more than a home-it is an opportunity to become the next steward of a distinctive piece of Springfield history.
