Property Description

Discover the perfect blend of elegance and functionality in this grand-pillared colonial, offering over 4,000 square feet of finished living space. This 5-bed, 2.5-bath masterpiece boasts exceptional features, including a 3-car garage with a drive-through bay, an EV charging station, and a private bonus room with a separate entrance. Utilize this room as an office, teen room, or even rent it as an air bnb for additional income! The expansive backyard is a true retreat, featuring a large deck with a built-in grill and cooking area, mature landscape and a whimsical bridge leading to a private gazebo. Step inside through the impressive two-story foyer and be greeted by a thoughtfully designed main floor. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, showcasing a large 8’x4’ island with new granite countertops, custom cabinetry, newer stainless steel appliances, and bay windows that frame views of the backyard. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a casual dining area and a sun-drenched family room complete with a built-in bar and a cozy gas brick fireplace. Additional highlights on the first floor include a private office with custom-built-ins, a formal dining room, and a versatile bonus bedroom with vaulted ceilings, skylights, a walk-in closet, and its own private deck. A half bath, laundry room with a convenient chute, and a mudroom—easily convertible into a full bath to create a first-floor primary or in-law suite—round out this level. Upstairs, the second floor offers three spacious bedrooms, a guest bathroom with a luxurious jetted tub, and the serene primary suite. The suite features a dressing area and an en-suite bathroom with a large jacuzzi tub, high-end stone tile, and a walk-in shower. The living space continues in the finished lower level, which adds two large recreation rooms and a cozy hall reading nook with built-in bookshelves. Boasting numerous updates throughout and close proximity to downtown Amherst + major highways, this turnkey home is sure to impress!
