Some places you rent. The Grove is a place you settle into.
Tucked beneath mature shade trees in the heart of Southeast Springfield's most established retail corridor, a rare 21-unit townhome community built for people who want all the space of a house with none of the upkeep. Established in 1986 and beautifully maintained ever since, these are homes in every sense, and the difference is something you feel the moment you step onto your own front porch.
Room to Live, Space to Grow
Each townhome offers roughly 1,600 square feet across three levels, with a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath layout plus a partially finished basement that most residents turn into a third bedroom, family room, game room, or home office. That is true three-bedroom functionality in a thoughtfully designed home.
The primary bedroom is a genuine retreat, featuring a vaulted ceiling, two oversized closets, and a private walkout patio. Every home includes a welcoming front porch and a back deck. With your own space on every level, each townhome feels exactly like the private residence it was designed to be.

Community Highlights
Set among mature shade trees, Sun Villa offers a private community swimming pool that becomes the heart of the neighborhood all summer long, perfect for cooling off on warm Ozark afternoons, relaxing poolside, and getting to know your neighbors.

With just 21 homes wrapped in a canopy of mature trees, Sun Villa feels less like a rental community and more like a private neighborhood.
