Great location! Short walk to center of Amherst, the farmers' market, restaurants, UMass, and more. Sweet Cape set back from the road on a quiet street. Great curb appeal and a private back yard. Recently painted inside; hardwood floors, newer furnace; newer windows throughout, attached garage with breezeway to kitchen, and a partially finished basement. With a few updates, this will be a beautiful and cozy home that's convenient to everything.
