There is something special about a home that harkens to the Frank Llyod Wright style, he would say, “the city man's country home on the prairie.” It is an apt description of this home. Modern&rare among countless capes and colonials. A mere bike ride to downtown Amherst whilst outdoor options abound nearby. Umass, Middle & H. school are within a walk as well! This home has had some remodeling but there are timeless aspects left for you to decide. Unique cork-tyle flooring and fieldstone slate surround a fireplace to sit beside while you take in the sunset through a lovely large picture window. Bedrooms/office & full baths on both floors for flexible living arrangements. First-floor main bedroom and laundry, a sunny walkout to your backyard for the Bar-BQ at sunset. Holly trees with surrounding foliage offer plenty of privacy. First time on the market! You know when that is said it means the previous owner never wished to move. Come see this one.
