A rare opportunity in Amherst, New Hampshire, this landmark custom Colonial offers the kind of space, privacy, flexibility, and character that seldom come together in one property. Set on 2.58 picturesque acres with mature landscaping, rolling lawn, heirloom trees, an expansive paddock, an inground gunite pool, and exceptional garage space, this is a property designed for buyers who want room to live, gather, work, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors.



The setting feels private and established from the moment you arrive. Mature trees provide shade and a sense of quiet, while the open yard, partially fenced backyard, and paddock create a beautiful backdrop for everyday living. Whether you are hosting summer pool days, enjoying a quiet morning on the deck, or gathering under the 360 square foot gazebo beside the pool, the property offers a true New Hampshire lifestyle with space to breathe.



Inside, the home balances classic Colonial design with the flexibility today’s buyers need. A tiled foyer with glass doors opens to a handsome library with built in shelving, creating a warm and inviting first impression. The formal dining room is filled with natural light and offers an elegant setting for holidays, celebrations, and dinners with family and friends. The thoughtfully designed eat in kitchen features sliders to the back deck, making it easy to move between indoor dining and outdoor entertaining.



A welcoming keeping room with built in shelving and a wood burning fireplace adds warmth and character to the main level, while hardwood flooring throughout the first floor brings continuity and timeless appeal. A powder room, tiled mudroom area, and convenient access to the finished lower level add to the home’s everyday function.



The walk out finished lower level is a standout feature, offering exceptional versatility for multi generational living, extended guests, work from home needs, hobbies, or recreation. This level includes a spacious family room, a recently renovated three quarter bath, an office, and an additional flex room, giving the home meaningful space beyond the traditional floor plan.



Upstairs, two staircases lead to a generous second floor with five bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite offers a walk in closet and a spa like full bath with a jetted tub and walk in shower. Four additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for family, guests, offices, or creative space.



Car enthusiasts, contractors, hobbyists, and anyone needing serious storage will appreciate the rare garage setup. In addition to the attached two car garage, the property includes a detached 1,536 square foot garage with soaring ceilings, offering remarkable potential for vehicles, equipment, a workshop, storage, or future possibilities.



The outdoor living is equally impressive. The gunite inground pool is complemented by a spacious gazebo with two ceiling fans, creating a comfortable shaded retreat on warm summer days. Irrigation, an EV charger, and generator readiness add practical value and convenience.

An adjacent 3.5 acre lot is also available to the buyer, creating an even more extraordinary opportunity for added privacy, expansion, or long term possibilities.
