263 Gulf Rd, Belchertown, MA 01007

Not available for sale since 1972, this lovely post and beam home is sited next to the Scarboro Brook on a scenic stretch of Gulf Road. This unique home could not be built today in this location and is an unusual find so close to downtown Amherst and local conveniences. Quietly sited on 3.8 acres there are exposed beams, wood floors, living room with cathedral ceilings and cozy fireplace, built-in library shelving, sun-room, updated kitchen (2015), outdoor sauna, and a beautiful wall of windows that brings the outside in. The oversized 2-car garage has pull-down stairs with storage above. The septic system was completely redesigned and updated in 2013 and the owner has installed a new well, upgraded the electrical service, and meticulously maintained the home over the years. This property will appeal to writers, artists, and those who want to live close to nature -- it's a rare find in today's market. Call today to schedule a showing and be embraced by all this property has to offer.
