    What's special

    This modern light-filled, fully furnished home provides the peace and quiet of living in the country, with all the amenities of living in the city. Built in 2017, it boasts new appliances, loft-vibes, big windows, spacious front porch, and hardwood/polished cement floors. Here's a breakdown of all the spaces in this home: Living/Dining/Kitchen space: - One big open living space with tall ceilings, great for hosting. - Unique loft space (used for storage/bookshelf). - Open closet area in the entryway to store coats and shoes, plus a utility closet. - Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, stove/oven unit, microwave, electric kettle, etc. Bedroom 1: - This is a small room, but I find it very cozy. Just big enough for my queen bed and a couple of nightstands. It's perfect for leaving behind all the noise and chaos after a long day. - There's no closet in this bedroom, but there is a hall closet for extra storage. Bedroom 2/Office: - This room has my WFH office set up: standing desk, monitor, etc. Right next to a large window, great for bird watching during a zoom meeting. - This room also has a full sized bed, full closet, and bookcase filled with boardgames (which you'd be welcome to play!) Bathroom: - Full bathtub + rain shower head. - Window and vent for good ventilation. This house has many other features I love, including: - Stacked Washer and Dryer - Solar panels to keep utilities low! - Compost bin out back - A spacious front porch - Two trees out back perfectly spaced for hanging a hammock (hammock included!) - Beautiful views of a nearby farm (pictured) - Large shared yard Location: - walking distance to UMass Amherst ( 1.5 mi, ~30 min), and downtown Amherst (also 1.5 mi, ~30 min) - Far from the main road, so it's very quiet. - Wildwood cemetery woods are right behind the house and have well-maintained trails. - FYI the house is right next to the train tracks, but it's freight only. The train comes only a few times a week and never at night. Perfect for faculty, graduate students, and professionals. No pets, no smoking. This is a sublease. Available now through May 23rd. At least a 2 month lease is preferred, but dates and lease length are both flexible. All utilities are included. I'd also ask the subtenant to water the plants every ~2 weeks.
