Two-family investment property minutes from Puffer's Pond and just ~3 miles to UMass and vibrant downtown Amherst. Built in 1984 on 1.66 acres, this well-maintained property offers two 3-bed, 1-bath units (6 bedrooms total), one unit has been updated, both have in-house laundry, and the property comes with an owned solar system which helps offset utility costs. Puffer's Pond is one of the area's most beloved spots — swimming, hiking trails, and quiet natural beauty just down the road. Downtown Amherst adds restaurants, shops, and easy access to Amherst College and UMass — a huge draw for tenants and future owners alike. With excellent rental history, this property offers day-one cash flow for an investor (Owner Occupied exempt!), or the option to live in one unit and rent the other. A rare combination of income, location, and lifestyle in one of the Valley's most sought-after rental markets. Book your showing today! See special showing instructions.
