Curb Appeal: April brings $19M in high-end home listings

More than $19 million in high-end homes were listed in April, according to Southern Missouri Regional MLS data.

For the monthly editorial series Curb Appeal, Springfield Business Journal compiled a list of 24 single-family homes within city limits that were listed last month with asking prices of $500,000 or more. That compares with 23 in March, 24 in February and 19 in January.

The owners of the homes listed last month are seeking $19.4 million in their combined asking prices. That's the largest aggregate of 2024 to date, topping the previous high of $17.8 million set in February.

The highest-priced residence of the month, at nearly $2 million, is for a home on the 18th tee box in Highland Springs Country Club. The 4083 E. Eaglescliffe Drive residence has four bedrooms, six bathrooms and spans more than 7,700 square feet.
