True to its architectural roots, this 1878 Italianate-style home in the Dickinson Historic District of Amherst offers a distinctive, casual elegance while seamlessly blending traditional details with modern improvements. You will appreciate the owned solar panels and remodeled kitchen & first-floor bathroom alongside ornate woodwork and original inlay flooring. The six well-proportioned rooms on the first floor include a large mudroom with laundry, eat-in kitchen, formal dining & living rooms, a comfortable den, and study with built-ins. Upstairs you will find a primary en-suite, five additional bedrooms, and a shared full bath. Enjoy two covered outdoor spaces - a generous side porch and screened front porch - both with views of established gardens, and a large 2-story carriage house that inspires one's imagination. After 40 years, this graceful home just steps from local schools, Amherst College and a downtown with a cinema, shops, etc. is ready for a new generation of stewards!
