Description

Up for rent: A lovely 4 bedroom 2.5 bath rental house just steps from campus, across the street from Butterfield Hall dorm. The house is being renovated and is new to the Amherst rental market. It has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, a dining room off the kitchen and a separate, very large living room. Historic charm with new kitchen, dishwasher, all new paint and new windows, and parking for three cars. Washer/dryer in basement, granite countertops, high efficiency appliances and all new cabinetry. Lease from May 15, 2019 until the end of May, 2020. Nice deck overlooks nature and conservation area, but you are on campus by crossing the street. Non-students live on both sides of house so we seek tenants who will be respectful of neighbors by being quiet at night and keeping the yard tidy. The house has a total of 1548 square feet with plenty of storage room in the basement.

    "My commute to work is straight down Rt 9. Ten minutes, if that. I live here out of convenience. Neighborhood is college students on all sides. Not the most desirable neighbors. "

    "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. "
