About This Home

As of April 2025

Stately two-story brick home in a sought-after Amherst neighborhood. Amherst isn't a completely sleepy little town anymore; but quiet enough you can feel the seclusion. Amherst hosts a grocery store, restaurants, fast food, brewery and convenience stores. This is my hometown and I can assure you it is one of the most wonderful Towns/areas to raise a family and invest in Real Estate. 169 Sunset is set on a well groomed landscaped parcel, at nearly an acre with mature trees, a greenhouse, hardwood floors, and an open floor plan. Enjoy a newly stained deck off the kitchen, a sunroom with dual access, an elevated second-floor deck, gas fireplace, a remodeled kitchen with quartz countertops and dual-fuel stove. Other new updates: 2024, roof/gutters & Water Heater; 2020 HVAC w/ May 2030 Warranty, Ext Paint 2022. Your new Home has a workshop with electricity and attached greenhouse. Just 20 minutes from Lynchburg! Call for your private tour today, while it is still available!
