Property description
Tucked away from the world you will find this lovely cottage completely hidden from view on Main Street in Amherst. Behind the mature vines and shrubbery you will find this unique home with a separate guest house/studio. Fabulous front porch for relaxing, spacious living room with fireplace, and a more intimate study with a second fireplace. Wood floors, high ceilings, and a convenient master suite complement this home. Live and work from home and walk to local shops and restaurants. A very special property.
