Listing broker remarks

Space & storage abound in this raised ranch with a second story addition. Tucked into a quiet corner of the Orchard Valley neighborhood, the property is an 8 minute drive to Amherst College to the West & a 13 minute drive to Mt Holyoke College to the East. Lovely flowering trees & perennials flank a Goshen stone entry that leads to a practical mudroom. The home features eight bedrooms, dual offices, and three & a half bathrooms. The first floor primary suite with built ins, sliding door to a private deck, and en suite 3/4 bath is currently being used for intergenerational living. An open floor plan connects the light-filled kitchen, dining and living rooms. The kitchen was updated in 2023 with a large island & stone countertops. The roof & owned solar were installed in 2014. Hardwood floors throughout the main level could use a re-finish. The large, private, rear yard with a swing-set is currently being used as a baseball diamond & has plenty of space for gardening.
