Property Description

A turnkey luxury short-term rental investment opportunity unlike any other in Springfield! The iconic African Queen is an established, licensed, income-producing vacation rental offered fully furnished and equipped for continued operation. A professional STR management evaluation projects annual gross rental revenue of up to $95,000. Its rental history and included furnishings offer investors a head start without the typical expense of furnishing a luxury rental. Equally compelling as a second home, the property offers personal enjoyment with rental income that could offset or potentially more than cover ongoing maintenance costs. Designed in 1962 by renowned designer Don Russell, this approximately 3,300 sq. ft. architectural landmark occupies nearly four acres of lush grounds and water features in one of Springfield's most coveted southeast areas. Monumental 1820s doors from Goa, India open to a remarkable wood mosaic floor by New York City's Archetypal, featuring approximately 550,000 pieces of oak, walnut and ebony, including a 20,000-piece crocodile. Reclaimed 18th-century Indonesian teak, ostrich egg and gemsbok horn lighting, four-inch Carthage stone countertops and exceptional craftsmanship distinguish the interiors. Expansive windows frame the water and gardens. An indoor grill fireplace and a two-inch glass floor overlooking spring-fed water create unforgettable gathering spaces. The Bluff Room, built into natural rock, features a custom copper hot tub. The primary suite offers private balconies, a fireplace, sitting area and 260-gallon aquarium. Petrified wood sinks and a copper soaking tub add to the home's character.Outside, ponds, a creek, waterfalls and gardens create a secluded retreat, complete with a 15-foot Zulu Warrior sculpture and resident otters. Whether continued as a luxury vacation rental, enjoyed as a second home or treasured as a private estate, the African Queen offers a combination of income potential and architectural distinction.
