11 E Thomson Avenue feels more like a hidden cottage from a storybook than a typical Springfield home. Set back on a quiet lane and surrounded by mature trees, this Cape Cod welcomes you with its vine-covered exterior, moss-lined roof, and gravel drive leading to a two-car detached garage with electric. Inside, rich wood tones, exposed brick, and beamed ceilings create warmth and texture. The living room centers around a cozy brick fireplace with a wood-burning insert, while the adjacent dining area features original wide-plank floors and a vintage chandelier. Brick columns frame the kitchen, adding character and a handmade quality that feels timeless. Two first-floor bedrooms include a vaulted-ceiling space with sliding doors to a spacious deck—perfect for watching the leaves turn or listening to the creek below. Upstairs, two additional areas offer built-in drawers, sloped ceilings, and just enough quirk to feel magical. The lower level includes a partially finished flex room, laundry, and storage, with walkout access to the fenced backyard. Step outside to find a multi-level deck, and a lush yard lined by trees and a gently running stream—a place that invites slow mornings and quiet evenings. Recent updates include a new water heater (2023) and upgraded 200-amp electric. Additional features include stainless appliances, wall and window A/C units, public water and sewer, and plenty of off-street parking. Located minutes from SEPTA, schools, shopping, and the Healthplex, this home offers an uncommon blend of charm, privacy, and proximity. It's not for everyone—but if you’ve ever wished for a home that feels like it could hold stories, you’ll want to see this one.
