Historic Lindsey House 1878 estate-stained glass, upper veranda
Step into history in one of the area’s oldest homes, beautifully restored from the 1870s with modern comforts throughout. Enjoy a fully updated kitchen and bathrooms, multiple large Smart TVs, a private study perfect for remote work, and a rooftop deck with comfortable outdoor seating.
Dog-friendly and ideal for couples, families with children 12+, or business travelers. (Children under 12 cannot be accommodated due to safety concerns.)
Historic charm and thoughtful spaces are found throughout the Lindsey House. This remarkable home is one of the earliest recorded homes in Springfield, dating to a time when the area was still farmland. It also holds a fascinating place in local history, having once been part of the Underground Railroad. A historic runnel once extended from the home toward the nearby cemetery. While no longer accessible, its story remains an important part of the property's heritage.
Inside, original details blend with modern comforts, including original wood paneling, period wallpaper, stained glass, a beautiful chandelier, and a charming study stocked with books and games. Two outdoor spaces offer places to gather or unwind, including a ground-level patio and rooftop deck with views that make you feel secluded despite being in town.
The Lindsey House isn't simply a place to stay—it is a chance to experience a piece of Springfield's history while enjoying the comfort of a thoughtfully restored home.
