1201 E Walnut St, Springfield, MO 65802

Welcome to The Corner Building, a distinctive historic property ready for its next life. Prized for its prime position at the corner of National Avenue and Historic Walnut Street, this remarkable property blends timeless architectural character with exceptional versatility. Once a beautiful home and now thoughtfully converted to office use, it offers an opportunity unlike any other--to restore it as a residence, create a live-work space, pursue a creative reuse, or explore short-term rental possibilities. The property is zoned high density residential and currently operates under a special use permit for office space, giving the next owner a flexible opportunity. Two separate front entrances, including one with direct access to the second story, create the potential to easily separate the property into an A and B unit. Currently configured with nine office spaces, the layout could also accommodate four bedrooms and multiple living areas, depending on your vision. Three bathrooms feature historically accurate fixtures and tile paired with modern functionality. Original character, beautiful hardwood floors, ornate fireplaces and mantels, and carefully preserved architectural elements give the building a warmth and authenticity that simply cannot be replicated. The kitchen adds another layer of personality with custom cabinetry crafted in a distinctive scalloped silhouette. Outside, the grand wraparound front porch welcomes you with space to relax, entertain, and enjoy the charm of this coveted setting. The property offers impressive convenience with a paved parking area accommodating 16+ vehicles, and a detached two-car garage. With close proximity to Missouri State University, downtown, and the Rountree neighborhood, the location is every bit as compelling as the building itself. With so much history, character, and possibility wrapped into one extraordinary property, The Corner Building is ready for its next chapter--and the opportunity to write it is yours.
