Beautiful spacious colonial on a serene cul-de-sac in a highly sought-after neighborhood 5 minutes from Amherst Center, public schools, and Umass! This home has been well-maintained with numerous updates. The front entry welcomes you into the expansive eat-in kitchen with w/granite countertops, cherry cabinets, and lots of natural light flooding the newly sanded wood floors. This leads to a southern-facing multi-level back deck and yard with an above-ground pool. The kitchen is centrally located abutting the formal dining, family room with a wood-burning fireplace, and gracious formal living room. The second floor features a primary ensuite with a walk-in closet, three generous additional bedrooms, and a full bath. You will find ample open space above the garage for possible expansion. The walk-out basement is beautifully finished with a separate office and washer and dryer space. The privacy and expansive open southern backyard are hard to find!
