Listing broker remarks

A home in the treetops! Peaceful and private, this classic 1920 hilltop home offers sweeping mountain views and spectacular sunsets on a quiet, hidden, in-town street. Character and charm shine through this spacious 5-bedroom 2&1/2 bath home has been carefully maintained and tastefully updated through the years, including a full renovation of the charming kitchen, blending vintage character with modern luxury. The inviting layout includes lovely original details throughout, including the upstairs reading nook, cozy living room fireplace with pellet stove, carefully detailed staircase, charming built-ins, and glowing hardwood floors. Natural light streams through the expansive windows, and the generous deck just off the kitchen is surrounded by nature--a cheery, light, fun place to live. This coveted neighborhood offers a rural feel but excellent walkability to town, library, cinema, farmer’s market, music, restaurants; a short stroll to Amherst College and UMass.— William Raveis R.E. & Home Services
