15.53 ACRES IN WEST SPRINGFIELD - a rare opportunity for the buyer searching for land, versatility, and a property that simply can't be duplicated in a typical neighborhood setting. This custom-built 2,427 sq. ft. contemporary-style ranch offers a remarkable combination of open and wooded acreage, mature trees, a flowing brook tucked farther back on the property, multiple outbuildings, and exceptional potential for horses, a hobby farm, recreation, equipment, workshops, or simply enjoying room to spread out. Built in 1987 by its craftsman owner, the home itself is a showstopper, featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, an attached 3-car garage, soaring vaulted ceilings, skylights, expansive windows, and a dramatic central fireplace anchoring the open living spaces. A heated sunroom brings the outdoors in, while decks off the kitchen and primary suite provide additional places to relax and take in the surroundings. Step outside and the property becomes something entirely different - acres of natural beauty, mature trees, abundant wildlife, wooded areas, and the brook farther back on the acreage create a setting with a sense of space and connection to nature that is increasingly hard to find in West Springfield. The primary suite includes a private bath with Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and its own balcony overlooking the property. First-floor laundry adds everyday convenience. Below, a massive full walkout basement spans approximately the entire footprint of the home and offers tremendous space for storage, hobbies, a workshop, or future finished living space. Add the circular paver driveway, abundant parking, outbuildings, and more than 15 acres to explore, and this is much more than a home - it is a property offering possibilities rarely available in town. If acreage, space, and a connection to nature are at the top of your wish list, 780 Birnie Ave deserves to be experienced in person. Schedule your private showing today and come experience firsthand everything this one-of-a-kind West Springfield property has to offer.
