About this home

A little bit of history and a whole lot of potential! Located in the heart of Amherst, this charming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home dates back to 1900 and is filled with character and details that give it a personality all its own. Having been unoccupied for approximately 13 years, seller makes no warranty of the condition and function of the mechanicals and home. This home is ready for some attention and a new vision. The kitchen features updated cabinetry, and the flooring remains in good shape. A three-season room/mudroom (adding nearly 400 extra sq ft) offers a cozy spot to kick off your boots, with a wood-burning fireplace to add a little warmth during the winter months. The one-car garage has a built-in dog area, with an exterior fenced-in kennel.

If you've been looking for a project with character, a convenient in-town location, and plenty of room to reimagine, this Amherst home is ready for its ne
