About this House

Lovingly maintained well-priced home on a quiet cul-de-sac ending in nature trails, yet walking distance to the center of town. You’ve got to check it out! This charming traditional Cape has 2 bedrooms and a full tiled bath on the 1st floor and 2 generously-sized bedrooms and ½ bath on the 2nd. The bright, tiled sunroom that opens to a private backyard is heated with a wood stove and mini-split. Other features include hardwood floors and replacement windows throughout, luxury vinyl plank kitchen floor, efficient Rheem Hybrid water heater, and updated bathrooms with luxury vinyl floors. Multi-zone heating/cooling minimizes the use of oil: pellet stove in the living room quickly warms the whole house and 2 mini-splits contribute to heating and cooling. Walk to a bus stop or Amherst College and drive easily to UMass and all the other local colleges. Convenient to shopping, dining, recreation, conservation land, the bike trail, and commuter routes.

    "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. "
