Springfield is a sought-after place to live, and is an easy commute to downtown Washington via River Road or Massachusetts Avenue by car or bus. It is a remarkably family-friendly neighborhood, where streets are calm and residents are friendly with one another. I know this because I reside in Springfield myself!

Springfield is adjacent to the Westbard Shopping Center, with a supermarket, coffee shop, drug/convenience store, and other assorted specialty shops. Plans are currently in the works to give the shopping center a facelift, and to expand the current services. Wood Acres Elementary School (K-5, Montgomery County Public Schools) is within walking distance from any point in Springfield. Other cluster schools include Thomas Pyle Middle School and Walt Whitman High School. These excellent schools are one of the factors adding value to Springfield real estate. In 2010, the median home sold price in Springfield was $864,500.

The neighborhood is primarily comprised of split-level homes, built in the 1940′s. Many owners have opted to renovate and/or add on to their homes over the years to meet their changing needs, rather than move, further enhancing the value of local real estate here in Springfield.
