Enjoy this cozy home to yourself!
This is an amazing location on a peaceful residential street. It's on the PVTA bus route, only 2 miles to downtown Amherst. Hike for miles along the Robert Frost Trail, Amethyst Brook, and up Mt Orient. Get your fresh veggies right across the street at Little Light Farm CSA.
The bedroom is large and sunny, with an additional room for a small bedroom or office. The well-lit kitchen has oak cabinets and a new range. Woodwork graces the dining room and living room. There's also a charming sun room! Hardwood floors throughout, no carpeting. The tiled bathroom has a shower, no tub. One of the nicest things about this house is the high ceilings and ceiling fans.
The laundry room is equipped with washer and dryer hookups and offers storage space. Note that there are no closets.
The walls are freshly painted, newly insulated and weather sealed. All of the windows are double-paned glass. In the winter choose between two heating systems -- an oil furnace with forced hot air or high efficiency mini-splits, just installed. In the summer enjoy the comfort of whole house air conditioning. A new heat pump hot water heater adds to this eco-friendly and energy-efficient home.
Outside you can relax in the quiet of your own yard. Store your bikes and other outdoor gear in the large outdoor shed. End-to-end parking is available for two vehicles.
One year lease. I am a responsive, local, professional landlord looking for responsible, reliable tenants who are respectful of their neighbors. Good references are a must and will be thoroughly checked. Landlord pays for sewer, water, and lawn care. Tenant pays for electric, heat, hot water, and Internet. Some shoveling of snow required. No smoking, pets negotiable. Security deposit equal to one month's rent is required.
If interested please contact me in writing through this listing and I will reply promptly by email, thank you.
