The Chapin-Ward house is a wonderful synthesis of graceful turn-of-the century architecture with all modern systems and amenities. The house was moved to the site in 2008 and rebuilt with a new foundation, all new electrical/heating/plumbing & insulation, creating a highly energy efficient home. An entrance hall opens into a paneled stair hall revealing elegant walnut and oak woodwork and stained glass windows.To the rear is a renovated kitchen with handsome cherry cabinets and black stone countertop, further back a cathedral-ceilinged living room with a fireplace has been added. Up front is a sun filled sitting room with an adjacent dining room and charming half bath. The 2nd floor has 3 well-lit bedrooms, including a primary en suite with full bath and walk-in closet. The finished 3rd floor with vaulted ceiling is ideal for a home office. A carriage house invites use as an office or studio. Adjacent to Amherst College, downtown & close to UMASS. Showings begin at open house Sat, 1-3
Historic Chapin Ward home moved to site as part of historic preservation effort. Totally redone and brought to current living expectations. Wonderful woodwork, light, use of extensive woodwork detail, superb landscaping. Walk to town. A gem.
