Description

Set along a tree-lined Amherst street, this 2,350SF appraiser measured authentic English Tudor architecture, thoughtful updates and flexible living space come together in this custom-built 1940s home. A rounded entry door opens to a dedicated tiled foyer with generous storage. Hardwood floors, rich architectural detail and timeless character continue throughout the first floor. The expansive living room features a large bay window, fireplace and flanking built-in shelving, while the oversized formal dining room is filled with natural light from a picture window. A rear den provides a comfortable retreat with direct access to the awning-covered porch and fully fenced backyard. Completely remodeled in 2017, the kitchen features quartz countertops, a tiled backsplash, center island with breakfast-bar seating, stainless steel appliances and a walk-in pantry. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet organized by California Closets and direct access to the beautifully remodeled full bath. Designer finishes include a dual-sink hard-surface vanity and tiled tub/shower walls. A fully finished third floor adds versatile bonus space for recreation, work, hobbies or relaxation. The basement further extends the home's functionality with a dedicated laundry area and a large exercise or recreation room. Outside, a detached two-car garage complements the fenced yard and covered rear porch. Additional features include a tear-off architectural roof installed approximately 2014, a newer forced-air heating and central air system serving the first floor, and multiple mini-split units providing individualized temperature control throughout much of the home. Historic character, quality finishes and adaptable living spaces create a distinctive Amherst offering.
