About this home

Tucked away on 8.2 beautiful acres in Amherst Township, this spacious 3+ bedroom, 2.5-bath colonial offers approximately 2,450 sq. ft. of living space and a versatile layout. Two main-floor bonus rooms off the foyer offer flexible space for an office, sitting room, playroom or additional living space. The eat-in kitchen features beautiful cherry cabinetry, generous workspace and instant hot water, while the adjoining formal dining room provides a welcoming space for gatherings and entertaining. The family room showcases a striking fireplace and tray ceiling. A convenient drop zone off the garage entry connects to the main-floor laundry and half bath, creating a functional everyday entryway. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms and an additional full bath. The primary suite features a tray ceiling, walk-in closet and private bath with jetted tub, double vanity and dedicated makeup vanity. Best of all, the primary bedroom overlooks the neighboring apple orchard—a beautiful backdrop to wake up to each morning! The full, partially finished basement provides additional living/recreation space, while the crawl space offers even more storage. Outside is where this property truly stands apart! Enjoy a mix of open and wooded acreage and plenty of space to entertain, garden or simply appreciate the privacy and peaceful surroundings. Cool off in the above-ground pool, shoot some hoops at the basketball hoop or enjoy the existing backstop for outdoor fun. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists or anyone needing extra storage will appreciate the oversized attached 3-car garage.
