Description

One of the coolest and most unique homes in Amherst! Tucked well back from the road on a quiet street, this contemporary property sits on an impressive 26,695 sq. ft. lot surrounded by mature trees, grapevines, raspberry bushes and a vegetable garden. It's hard to believe you're just a short walk from all the amenities of downtown Amherst! The property features a spacious main home, an attached guest/in-law suite and a 22x24 detached garage. Inside, a welcoming mudroom leads to a functional layout with a bright kitchen, convenient half bath, spacious dining room overlooking the backyard, and a main-floor office that could also serve as a bedroom. The living room offers a warm chalet feel with a wood-burning fireplace and access to an incredible covered, screened-in deck-perfect for entertaining family and friends! Upstairs you'll find a guest bedroom, full bath and a bright primary bedroom. The walkout lower level offers a large family room with cozy gas stove, workshop, office, storage room, laundry and another full bath. The attached guest/in-law suite provides excellent flexibility with its own living/dining area, kitchen, private deck, bedroom and 3-piece bath with walk-in shower-ideal for extended family, someone with mobility needs, or potential rental income. A 22kW whole-home natural gas generator provides year-round peace of mind. Be sure to explore the multimedia link for the 3D tour and book your private showing today-you'll be glad you did!
