About this home

$10,000 CLOSING COST CREDIT. BACK ON MARKET WITH SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENTS: new roof/decking plus fresh interior painting throughout along with wallpaper removal. Located in Echo Hill South, this @1840 SF Ranch Rambler with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths & 1-car garage is nestled into a cozy, cul-de-sac with 6 other resident homeowners. All enjoy the perks of a natural setting with trees, ponds, wildlife, open meadow & the Robert Frost Trail. Yet just down the road are the popular Fitness Center & free PVTA bus for commutes to Amherst Center & UMASS. The subdivision was developed in the 1970's during a UMASS expansion and influx of new hires. Lavished with TLC by one such family over the past 55 yrs.,15 Red Fox Ln was the haven for a growing family & later for aging parents who could 'age in place,' thanks to mostly single level living. Major upgrades beside the roofing include: reconstruction of the entry way with double doors, skylights and tile floor; 6' x 10' kitchen remodel with peaked addition and Palladian windows plus a plethora of maple cabinetry; conversion to natural gas heat with new HVAC system in 2018 including gas fireplace; replaced hollow core with solid wood doors; box windows installed in the living room & main bedroom. Delight in the largely finished basement which provides a family room, 1/2 bath, laundry room, office and storage spaces.
