Nestled on the quiet cul-de-sac of McCauley Lane in the heart of an historic West Main neighborhood, this exquisite custom-built Cape is a rare gem. From the driveway with detached garage and spacious private deck overlooking Hemlock Brook, the Ashfield stone walk leads to a matching stone terrace and a welcoming entry room with tile floor. The kitchen features granite counters,cherry cabinets with Shaker doors, and a gas range/stove. Also on the first floor are the dining and living rooms with Jotul natural gas stoves,two bedrooms with delightful bay window seats/beds overlooking cascading Hemlock Brook,and a sparkling tiled main bathroom with a Runtal towel warmer/radiator.
In addition, the primary bedroom features an ensuite half-bath/closet combination. Two upstairs bedrooms and a second full bath are accompanied by a paneled cedar closet and ample attic storage. There are red oak hardwood floors upstairs and down, and thermostats in the main rooms provide natural gas and electric baseboard zonal heating. A full unfinished basement provides additional storage space. On the roof, discreetly placed solar arrays help keep electricity costs low. Attractive landscaping yields spectacular seasonal effects. Tucked behind the garage, a kitchen garden features a mature asparagus bed and more room for leafy greens, your favorite fresh herbs, and vegetables. This home is ideally located for easy access to the Clark Art Institute, the shops on Spring Street, and the Williams College campus
