About this home

Now offered at a new price! True to its architectural roots, this 1878 Italianate-style home in the heart of Amherst offers a distinctive, casual elegance while seamlessly blending traditional details with modern improvements. You will appreciate the newer roof and owned solar panels (both 2020), and updated kitchen & first-floor bathroom alongside ornate woodwork and original inlay flooring. The gracious first floor includes a large mudroom with laundry, eat-in kitchen, formal dining & living rooms, a comfortable den, and study with built-ins. Upstairs you will find a primary en-suite, five additional bedrooms, and a shared full bath. Enjoy two covered outdoor spaces - a generous side porch and screened front porch - both with views of established gardens, and a large 2-story carriage house that inspires one's imagination. This beautiful home is just steps from local schools, Amherst College and a vibrant downtown - Jones Library, Amherst Cinema, shops, cafes/restaurants, and more!
