Unfortunately this seller who loves this home and neighborhood is relocating so it provides a great opportunity for its next owner to purchase this nicely updated Cape Cod-style home. Wonderful location, nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in convenient Amherst neighborhood. Close to everything: shopping, UB, highways for easy access to the airport or downtown. This delightful 3-bedroom residence offers a warm and inviting layout, perfect for comfortable living.
The first floor features a bright and spacious living room filled with natural light, a cozy eat-in kitchen, two good sized bedrooms, and a full bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized third bedroom along with a versatile bonus room that can serve as a home office, playroom or whatever suits your needs.
Enjoy the outdoors in your private, fully fenced backyard — ideal for pets, entertaining, or simply relaxing. In addition to the garage there is a storage shed. The full basement is clean and provides ample storage space and laundry.
Additional highlights include fresh paint throughout the home, newer vinyl replacement windows and new carpet on the upper level. Major updates include an architectural roof installed in 2018 and updated mechanical systems for added peace of mind.
