About 602 Park Ave

Welcome to 602 Park Avenue — a charming, well-cared-for home in the heart of Amherst that’s full of character, warmth, and outdoor appeal. Built in 1920 and lovingly maintained by the same owners for the past 34 years, this home offers the kind of quality and care that’s hard to find. Step inside to beautiful Amish hickory floors and light-filled living spaces that instantly feel like home. The covered front porch is perfect for morning coffee or relaxing evenings, while the spacious backyard provides plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, play, or peaceful retreat. A two and a half-car garage adds convenience and storage, and the location can’t be beat — just a short walk to Amherst High School and all the shops and dining in downtown. The basement is in exceptional shape for its age, thanks to routine care using Sherwin-Williams Loxon sealer and TreadPlex commercial-grade floor coating — a maintenance habit the owners have kept for decades. Big-ticket items have been taken care of: roof (2020), furnace (3 years old), and both the hot water tank and A/C unit are approximately 10 years old. Set in the highly rated Amherst School District, this is a rare opportunity to own a lovingly maintained home with charm, space, and location. Schedule your showing today — homes like this don’t stay on the market for long!
