About this House

This vintage stone Cape possesses the curb appeal of a fairy tale. 2 bedrooms upstairs and a bonus room used as a bedroom downstairs in this classic 1940 Cape appeals to those who appreciate sophisticated charm. Granite countertops, sweet extra eating nook, replaced cabinet doors, walk-in pantry and newer appliances (2 are not even a year old) make this kitchen a superb spot for the foodie. Formal dining room with handsome built-ins, fireplaced living room, powder room and laundry all on main living level. Backyard wrapped in foliage & quiet. Wood floors and Marmoleum flooring on 1st floor. Central air. Roth oil tank. Newer shed in rear for extra gardening or yard tools or seasonal storage-- plus a superb sunny spot for gardening and wood storage. Downstairs bedroom could be a studio or work-from-home (separate entrance). Added small attached shed facing driveway. Pretty home nicely cared-for-- just 8-minute drive to downtown Amherst, 5 minutes to UMass.

    "A quiet, private location great for kids and pets, and parents who want their kids to go out and play. Abuts (9th?) fairway and hole of Hickory Ridge CC (XC skiing out your back door). Look for wild chives, turtles, muskrats and garter snakes along banks of Plum Brook, which winds through north section of property. Most of soil on property has high clay content. Originally had (perhaps still has?) a working fireplace in the half-cellar (an underground spring precluded a full cellar). Lots of space in attic. Hallway in the bedroom 'wing' was long and wide - perfect for games like Mother-May-I, RedLight/ GreenLight, and Walk the Walls. Short walk to Mission Cantina, Moan & Dove, PVTA stop, gym, and Pre-through-6 schools. A snowplow, chainsaw and ride-on lawnmower are highly recommended. "
