About This Home

As of November 2022

Magnificent c1888 Queen Anne Victorian, meticulously updated and restored, is at once, impressive and warm & welcoming. Architecturally and historically significant, the W.G. Bassett House epitomizes the exuberant style with its wrap around porch, intricate detailing inside and out, five ornate fireplaces, stained glass accents, bays, arches, and an onion domed turret. Renovations include a bright and spacious chef's kitchen, modern ensuite bathrooms, and numerous system upgrades. Enjoy long views from the upper floors; the spa like primary suite, and the "secret" third floor turret room! Exquisite quality throughout. The exterior color palette, specified by the colorist for San Francisco's famous "Painted Ladies", includes 22K gold leaf accents. Detached carriage house with apartment above for income/caretaker/office? Surrounded by beautiful grounds, this home is truly a crown jewel on one of Northampton's most desirable streets, close to both Smith Campus and the vibrant downtown.
