About This Home

As of August 2021

This well-maintained home is being offered for the first time! Tucked on a spacious lot in scenic S. Amherst neighborhood and a peaceful side street. Original owners have cherished and enjoyed this large sunny 3 bedroom ranch-style home with a large foyer and finished walkout basement. Outside your eyes will be drawn to the spacious open sky, mature plantings, and tranquil backyard. Those who love to cook the large kitchen with SS appliances will not disappoint. You will want to savor your favorite drink on the sunny 12x12deck or on the large patio. In cooler weather, there are two propane stoves to get cozy around. The oversized bathroom could be divided or add a washer and dryer. The lower level is most flexible to accommodate many options such as a family room, guest space, office, fitness room. New roof in 2014. Ideal proximity to local colleges, shopping, and town center. Come see this special home in the culturally rich Five College area with highly sought-after public schools.
