Step into the heart of downtown Amherst and fall in love with this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath century home that perfectly blends historic character with modern comfort. Just a stone’s throw from the legendary Hot Dog Heaven (yes, you really can smell the fries from the front porch) and within easy walking distance to downtown shops, restaurants, and Amherst schools—this location is simply unbeatable. Inside, you’ll find all the warmth and personality you’d expect from a true century home: rich wood accents, fresh paint, and beautiful hardwood floors that have only gotten better with time. The spacious eat-in kitchen is a true showstopper, featuring updated cabinetry, a large storage-packed island, and plenty of natural light pouring in. A cozy enclosed front porch sets the scene for slow mornings with coffee, rainy afternoon reading sessions, or simply watching the world go by. The first floor boasts an oversized half bath—already generous in size and easily convertible to a full bathroom down the road. Tasteful finishes continue upstairs where you’ll find three cozy, well-appointed bedrooms that make the perfect retreat at the end of the day, along with a surprisingly spacious full bathroom featuring built-in cabinetry and a charming hidden laundry chute for added convenience. Off the bathroom you'll find a private second-floor balcony overlooking the expansive backyard. Whether you envision gardens, gatherings, pets, play, or peaceful evenings under the stars, this yard delivers. A large 2-car garage adds even more convenience. Major updates bring peace of mind, including a fully waterproofed basement (interior AND exterior) with a transferable warranty, a brand-new hot water tank, and a newer privacy fence enclosing the backyard. Move-in ready, full of charm, and located in one of Amherst’s most sought-after pockets—homes like this don’t come up often. Get in now… because this one is bound to go fast.
