About this House

Beautiful South Amherst!! Lovely 3-4 bedroom home featuring a walk-out lower level with kitchenette area, bathroom and in-law potential. Large, lush lot on a quiet side street with a patio, plantings, garden area and a chicken coop. The open floor plan has a nice flow with solid laminate flooring and access to a 12 X 12 deck. In the roomy kitchen you'll find plenty of storage, granite countertops and stainless appliances. The primary bedroom opens to the bath and the two other bedrooms have built-in cabinetry. The sizable bathroom could be converted into two or an added laundry room! New heat pump is being installed for high efficiency heating and cooling, in addition to two propane fireplaces for extra warmth. The location can't be beat - a short walk leads you to miles of hiking trails on the Holyoke Range. Beauty of nature and conservation land abounds!

    "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. "
