This unique and exceptional Antique Cape on 3.8 acres offers a stunning backyard that affords privacy, borders conservation land, has mature perennial gardens and its very own pond.

The kitchen has been modernized with high ceilings, recessed lighting, access to the exterior deck, and a lovely view of the bucolic grounds. This property is waiting for you to customize the interior. Come home to 104 Shays Street where you'll own a piece of Amherst history, enjoy peaceful tranquility, and sit beside your own Walden Pond.
