Historic Tudor Estate Sold in Springfield’s Most Exclusive Setting

 

This extraordinary Tudor estate, a rare architectural treasure set on more than five private acres overlooking the Springfield Country Club, was recently sold in less than three months after being listed with Alison North of The Avenue Group at Glasshouse Realty.

Perched with commanding views of the 13th green and 14th tee, the residence embodies a timeless elegance rarely found in today’s market. Built in 1937 by renowned architect Harry I. Schenck of the Dayton-based firm Schenck & Williams, the home reflects the craftsmanship of a designer celebrated for creating landmarks such as Orville Wright’s Hawthorn Hill.

From the moment you step through its solid oak doors, the home’s architectural significance is unmistakable. Wide plank white oak flooring, original wall sconces, and detailed crown molding honor its historic roots, while gold leaf ceilings and hand-painted molding by local artist Sherry Ringler add a refined, artistic dimension.

A custom conservatory with heated floors and three sets of French doors opens to a stone terrace—perfect for enjoying the estate’s sweeping golf course views. At the back of the home, expansive windows frame the panoramic scenery and the annual Springfield Country Club fireworks display, creating a truly memorable backdrop.

Offering nearly 7,000 square feet of living space, plus a finished walkout basement and conservatory, this residence includes six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and a half bath. The upstairs primary suite is a serene retreat, complete with a fireplace, private balcony, dual cedar closets, heated bathroom floors, walk-in shower, and bidet. A spacious first-floor family room with picture windows and a full bath provides flexible options for a main-level suite.

Additional features include:

  • First-floor office and parlor

  • Finished lower level with fireplace and hot tub room

  • Upper-level wing with full bath and sauna

  • Historic Portuguese tile and original architectural renderings by Schenck

  • Whole-house generator, below-grade irrigation system, updated windows, and slate roof

Car enthusiasts will appreciate the six-car garage, offering three traditional bays plus three hydraulic lift spaces.

 

This sale represents not only the successful marketing of a unique historic property but also the enduring appeal of Springfield’s most distinguished addresses. Homes of this caliber are exceptionally rare, blending architectural heritage with modern comforts in a setting of unmatched privacy and beauty.
