170 Pyle South Amherst Road

Move to one of the most contemporary homes in the area, tucked amidst native woods, yet close to local neighborhoods and communities. Nearby bike path extends to regional towns, and sidewalks extend to local downtown and college campus; a nearby trailhead leads to an abutting nature preserve with one of the most scenic reservoirs and migratory birdwatching areas. Join the adjacent golf club and invite friends to play! A winding drive leads to the front patio and a welcoming atrium bathed in light throughout the year: a great place for your displays and happy plants. Double doors open to a grand room with beautiful acoustics and views to the rear woods. A private first-floor guest suite and the nearby kitchenette is perfect for in-laws, caretakers, or extended families. A bonus first-floor studio enables focused creative work but could also be easily converted to a third bedroom. The upstairs is your private retreat with expansive living spaces and treehouse-like views. The sensuous kitchen has cabinets made by Ferrari Co., so it is a true Ferrari yellow! A central “floating” dining room overlooks the interiors below as well as the entry driveway. The main bedroom has long clerestory picture windows and a private balcony. A custom-designed en-suite bath is large enough for a tub and surround, tiled large shower, and spacious dressing areas. Off the upstairs living areas, is a beautiful study/office/library with custom-built quartz counters, also a perfect place for your daybed. Desirable features include accessibility throughout, commercial grade fixtures and finishes, warm bamboo floors, generous hallways designed as display galleries, zoned heating/cooling, heated 3-car garage, and a landscape design featuring small gardens including a Japanese bamboo courtyard. Included is a $20,000 credit for all carpet replacements plus a premium home warranty.
