OPEN HOUSE CANCELED - Set on a wide, quiet street, 217 Amherst is a three family home ideal for both owner occupants and investors. Each unit offers a comfortable two bedroom, one bath layout with abundant natural light throughout. The property features convenient three car wide parking and a charming, sun filled front yard complete with fencing and raised garden beds. All separate utilities and the heating systems were updated in 2017–2018 for added efficiency and peace of mind. Recent improvements include a renovated third floor bathroom (2021), a newly installed driveway (2022), and an upgraded sewer clean out line from the driveway to the street (2022). Durable, low maintenance vinyl siding and replacement vinyl windows further enhance the home’s long term value. A great opportunity with strong rental potential or comfortable multigenerational living. Tenants in place. Buyer financing fell through.
