Description

Panoramic views unfold through a southern wall of picture windows, offering stunning seasonal changes. This architect-designed, single-level contemporary home is custom-built for its South Amherst setting on a beautifully landscaped acre. Thoughtfully crafted for comfort and efficiency, it features five zones of radiant floor heating powered by natural gas, a newer boiler, and solar-assisted hot water. The layout offers a private primary suite on the west end, a guest suite with bath on the east end, and a third bedroom currently used as an office. High ceilings throughout-including soaring soffit ceilings in three rooms - enhance the open feel. A cozy library with built-in shelving leads to a screened porch. The full unfinished, heated basement provides excellent potential for expansion. The Owners, Architect & Builder together accomplished a home they are proud to pass to a new owner. There is a bona fide rain barrel to assist with garden watering.

    "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. "
