1920

A home in the treetops! Peaceful and private, this classic 1920 hilltop home offers sweeping mountain views and spectacular sunsets on a quiet, hidden, center-of-town road. Character and charm shine through this spacious 5-bedroom 2&1/2 bath home has been carefully maintained and tastefully updated through the years, including a full renovation of the charming kitchen, blending vintage character with modern luxury. The inviting layout includes lovely original details throughout, including the upstairs reading nook, cozy living room fireplace with pellet stove, stunning staircase, charming built-ins, and glowing hardwood floors. Natural light streams through the expansive windows, and the generous deck just off the kitchen is surrounded by nature--a cheery, light, fun place to live. This coveted neighborhood offers a rural feel but excellent walkability to town, library, cinema, farmer’s market, music, restaurants; a short stroll to Amherst College and UMass.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 2,097 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 24,460 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.

Estimates — not financial advice

These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
