27 January Hills Rd, Amherst, MA 01002

Designed by architect Kathleen Lugosch, founding Director of the Master of Architecture at UMass Amherst, this extraordinary residence is sited on 7.9 serene acres that look onto 25 additional acres of protected land, providing rare privacy that’s a 10-minute drive from the center of Amherst and its colleges, cultural attractions, and village life. A formal entry introduces the home’s signature design elements: custom millwork, translucent screen partitions, and a fluid layout that guides you through the space. Expansive glazing along the entire southern façade floods the interiors with natural light and offers uninterrupted views of the rolling fields beyond. The upper-level features 3 bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with ensuite bath and views of the meadow throughout. The lower level offers versatile secondary living spaces, with 1 bedroom, a library and media room, and full bath. The office wing offers 2 large office spaces with stunning views of the property.
