- Be sure to Click Virtual Tour - Opportunities like this are extremely rare in Amherst. Set on 4.3± acres just minutes from downtown, this one-owner property offers a true contractor-ready setup with Town Approved small excavation business use—something nearly impossible to find in this market. For contractors, landscapers, or trades, this is a turnkey live/work property with the infrastructure already in place. The land is mostly level and highly usable, providing an ideal layout for equipment or equestrian use. A scenic babbling brook runs through the property, adding both natural appeal and a functional water source for irrigation or livestock. You get privacy, space, and usability—without sacrificing proximity to town, schools, and major routes. The property has been meticulously maintained, and it shows in every detail—from the condition of the home to the quality and functionality of the outbuildings and grounds. A legal 4-bedroom septic system provides built-in flexibility for expansion or a future accessory dwelling unit. The centerpiece is the large two-story barn/shop featuring 16-foot ceilings, an oversized overhead door, and commercial-grade systems—perfect for serious operations. The second floor is partially finished, heated, and ideal for office space or an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), offering flexibility for additional living space or extended family use. Additional structures include a 3-car attached garage and a separate 3-car detached garage, delivering unmatched capacity for vehicles, equipment, and storage. Whether you're running a business, building out an equestrian property, or both, this is a unique opportunity to secure a highly functional property in a location where options like this are virtually nonexistent.
