When you enter this handsome house on a hill you can’t help but feel like you are in your own private mountain retreat. The towering stone fireplace rises up two floors to the top of the living room. The open beams throughout the house are functional and sturdy-but also beautiful. While this 3 bedroom, 3.5-bathroom house is nestled among wildlife on 3.13 acres it is still convenient to the center of Amherst. Exceptional upgrades add strength & value to this home. Newly purchased Solar panels in 2017 keep electricity bills at bay, as well as, a new roof in 2016 with CertainTeed Landmark Shingles with a Surestart plus protection plan. Not to mention a new well in 2014. This handsome property has just the right amount of landscaping with flowering trees and perennials…and an incredible vegetable garden area carefully nurtured over the years with organic amendments. Truly the most wonderful place to call home.
