537 S 71ST ST

Seven skylights. Custom hardwood floors. A hillside lot with territorial views and mature trees that took decades to grow. This semi-custom home is not a subdivision build. Tucked into the established Thurston Hills community, one of Springfield's most sought-after pockets, this home has been significantly updated since its original construction, with a county effective build date of 1990 reflecting the scope of improvements made over the years. The result is a home that lives with the character of an established neighborhood and the function of a well-maintained, updated property. Inside, natural light fills every room throughout the day. Solid hardwood floors, a built-in Murphy bed, and generous built-in storage throughout make the square footage work harder than it looks on paper. The layout creates natural separation between living, dining, and sleeping spaces — adaptable for working from home, hosting, or simply spreading out. Outside, a landscaped yard with raised garden beds and extra parking for a small RV or boat make the 0.26-acre lot genuinely usable. Privacy is real here — the hillside setting and mature trees mean you don't see your neighbors unless you want to. Thurston Hills Natural Area trails are minutes away on foot. Thurston schools serve this address. Downtown Eugene, the University of Oregon, and PeaceHealth RiverBend are all within 15 minutes. Schedule your showing today!
