Description

MODERN COMFORT MEETS CENTURY-OLD CHARM. Welcome to 42 Victoria St. West, where timeless character and modern upgrades blend seamlessly. This home is a beautifully updated and character-filled home just a short distance from historic downtown Amherst and is nestled on a convenient and popular street lined with trees for privacy. This 5-bed, 2-bath home has just been equipped with 5 new heat pumps (July 2025) giving this home 3 sources of heat, all 3 levels now have heating and cooling, making it comfortable and efficient year-round. An updated kitchen (2021) with built-in coffee bar, a main level bath (fully renovated in 2023) with recently installed laundry now gives this home 2 laundry areas, perfect for a large family. The large family room, living room, formal dining room gives you space to roam. Do you need main-floor living? This home has the potential for main-floor living with a large room that can be converted to a bedroom, plus main floor bath and laundry, making this the perfect multi-generational space. As you pass through either the front or side sunporches, you see the main floor (and upper floor) is graced with 10-foot ceilings, handcrafted crown moulding and original hardwood floors. The upstairs is accessed by two sets of staircases, the main original staircase (30-ft ceiling) or the ‘butler’s’ staircase off the kitchen giving direct access to a bedroom. Upstairs you will find 5 bedrooms or convert your primary suite using one for a huge walk-in closet, or use as a private office, or an upstairs play area for the children, limited only by your imagination. Now let’s go outside and check out the backyard retreat where you will find the 10x16 (2023), fully powered man cave space, she-shed, office or studio. The additional 10x16 lofted shed also provides space for your garden and yard tool storage. The expanded deck is perfect for bbq’s and outdoor family time.
