About This Home
As of May 2020A very special historic home in an idyllic Amherst Village location. The Dickey Walker House, once owned by a saddle/harness maker and then a blacksmith,is steeped in Amherst history. The current owners have renovated the home to accommodate a casually elegant lifestyle while staying true to the historical significance & character of the property. Sited on a rare @ 1 acre lot, the grounds are beautiful with in-ground pool, timeless perennials, raised-bed garden, fruit bearing trees & a large open space. If you'd like the charm & history of an antique with the convenience of an almost new home, then this might be a perfect fit. The front of the home is pure antique w/wide planked floors and a fireplace in every room. The rear 2/3rds of the house was completely renovated in 2006 including the eat in kitchen with SS appliances, honed granite counters and custom built ins. The family room flows easily from the kitchen. The gracious formal dining room is ideal for special gatherings. The living room/parlor is an elegant room. An office, laundry room and 1/2 bath powder room complete the first floor.The master bedroom has built ins, walk in closet, and lovely modernized 3/4 bath with custom tile shower. Two other bedrooms access a nicely updated full bath. A bonus room could be 4th bedroom or second office space. This home has been carefully maintained with attention to detail and respect for antique features, offering a marvelous combination of historical charm and farmhouse chic!
