Privately set on over 7 acres, the property offers a true estate setting with a natural running stream, expansive granite patio, heated in-ground pool, fire feature, and curated outdoor spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The residence reflects a significant level of investment, with extensive improvements to structural components, mechanical systems, electrical, plumbing, and septic—delivering the efficiency of a modern home while preserving architectural integrity.

The primary suite offers a private retreat with a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower, and radiant heat. Additional bedrooms maintain historic charm while benefiting from thoughtful updates. A dedicated recreation wing includes a theater room, sauna, and additional living space. A separate living area offers flexibility for extended use, including potential accessory dwelling use, subject to approvals. A classic 3-stall barn with tack room completes the property, ideal for equestrian or lifestyle use. A rare opportunity to own a reimagined estate in one of Amherst’s most desirable locations.
