About this home

Perfect walk-to-town location with an amazing backyard--privacy, self watering drip garden, native plants, pollinator garden, raspberries, and covered deck. This 3-BD, 2-BA Ranch has had a deep energy retrofit with Icynene spray foam and cellulose in the attic bringing the insulation rating to R60. This, along with double pane low E Argon windows, Thermax insulation on basement walls, four inches of rigid foam and house wrap (R-40), and a 4.8 owned kW photovoltaic solar array make this home nearly net zero! Hardwood and Marmoleum floors, fireplace with gas stove, Hardie plank siding, 1-car garage, hybrid hot water heat pump (2018), and 9-year old roof. Current owner has created an accessory apartment with two of the bedrooms and an added bath in 2021--could be easily converted back to single family living. This house is an energy efficient gem with a yard that feels like a sanctuary. Wildwood Elementary school and downtown Amherst just a short walk away. One level living a plus!
