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.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
