Overview

Historic Springfield Mixed-Use Opportunity

Located one block from Lincoln's Home and the Elijah Iles House, this three-story solid brick Italianate-style building, known as the historic Dr. Henry Wohlgemuth House (ca. 1864), presents an investment opportunity to restore a piece of Downtown Springfield’s architectural history. The property, with a size of 8644 square feet, is in distressed condition and requires an extensive full interior restoration and cleanout. The main level includes two expansive units with soaring ceilings, suitable for multi-family residential or mixed-use commercial conversion. The second floor mirrors this layout with two additional large units. The third floor offers four efficiency rooms, the original "maid's quarters", each previously equipped with a kitchenette and toilet, suitable for future short-term rentals, studio apartments, or flexible workspace. A full, unfinished basement provides ample storage. The property is zoned H3. It is located in Springfield, Illinois, near one of America's most treasured landmarks.
