Property Description
Quite possibly the most remarkable property in Northampton! This downtown home sits on a bluff above the Mill River offering sweeping year-long river views. An icon of the Smith College neighborhood, it offers 3.69 acres (!) of lawn, majestic woods, & over 500' of riverfront with gated drive access. The 4 bed/3.5 ba home features a 1st floor primary bedroom w/ updated en-suite bath, bright living & dining rooms (fireplace in both) & a beautifully updated kitchen w/ walk-in pantry+wet bar. Located next to a private switchback path down to the water, the 24x24 workshop with water/electric offers much potential. Enclosed geometric gardens yield abundant summer produce thanks to the southern exposure. Brand new dual fuel gas heating/cooling & 4-yr roof. Rare opportunity: the only river-side Ward Ave property with enough frontage for an additional lot. Views, acreage, & expansion potential all on the most desirable street— with a short path along the river to downtown. Truly one-of-a-kind.
