Opportunity knocks! Delight in this Expanded & Upgraded Ranch Rambler, sited on a private .95-acre lot on a quiet cul-de-sac.  As their family grew, the owners created common & separate spaces to meet their changing needs, along with a plethora of built-in shelving & cubbies. The small ranch became a larger one with major additions: a living room & 2-car garage with expanded storage + EV charging station; a primary bedroom, later split to create a 4th bedroom.  Not included in the generous 1848 SF on the 1st floor is the 400 SF, semi-finished, workshop walk-out.  The main level features the Mudroom Entry/LR with access to the covered blue stone patio + DR/Maple Cab Kitchen/Full Bath + Connector to the 4-bedroom wing.  Downstairs 458 SF comprises a versatile family room with media set-up; separate laundry/mechanical & storage spaces.  Along with their judicious use of space, the Sellers focused on energy efficient & lasting upgrades: mini-splits, added insulation, gas boiler & indirect hot water tank; replacement Andersen windows; laminate floors; all newer appliances + washer/dryer.  Upgrades abound outside: vinyl siding & gutters, roof; chicken coop & tractor shed; front & back door replacements, etc. The interior space is oriented south to the large, totally private backyard which welcomes all to gardens, fun family activities and up until recently – chickens.  This So. Amherst location offers quick access to the Town academic hub, to local parks & hiking on the Mt. Holyoke Range, as well as to shopping at nearby grocery & retail stores.
