The Chapin-Ward house is a wonderful synthesis of graceful turn-of-the century architecture with all modern systems and amenities. The house was moved to the site in 2008 and rebuilt with a new foundation, all new electrical/heating/plumbing & insulation, creating a highly energy efficient home. An entrance hall opens into a paneled stair hall revealing elegant walnut and oak woodwork and stained glass windows.To the rear is a renovated kitchen with handsome cherry cabinets and black stone countertop, further back a cathedral-ceilinged living room with a fireplace has been added. Up front is a sun filled sitting room with an adjacent dining room and charming half bath. The 2nd floor has 3 well-lit bedrooms, including a primary en suite with full bath and walk-in closet. The finished 3rd floor with vaulted ceiling is ideal for a home office. A carriage house invites use as an office or studio. Adjacent to Amherst College, downtown & close to UMASS.
