Thank you for your interest in our single family rental house at 476 Williamsburg Rd, Ashfield, Ma.
It is our policy to only show the house to people only after they have reviewed this site. Then see section "when available to lease ".
The house is located on Williamsburg Rd -a town road resurfaced in 2002 connecting Route 116 in Ashfield to Route 9 in Williamsburg. The house is on a 12 acre wooded lot approx 150 ft back from the road. The nearest neighbor is probably 400ft through the woods. This is a secluded location-we probably get twice the snow during the winter as the valley.
Approximate driving times:
5 minutes-Ashfield center
10 minutes Conway center
15 minutes-Shelburne Falls
20 minutes-South Deerfield
25-40 minutes (Greenfield, Amherst, Northhampton)
50-60 minutes (Springfield, Pittsfield, North Adams, Brattleboro)

SO WHATS NOT TO LIKE???
1-Some people may find the location "too rural"-the following are "common" bear, bobcat, raccoons, deer, turkeys, porcupines, coyote, etc.
2- When the valley gets rain or ice we may get a foot of snow.
Misc.- Generally during the summer it is cooler than in the valley. During the winter we are often warmer than lower locations at night. My wife & I have purchased this house so we can insure that we do not hear any noise from the house!! There is a rather lengthy- rental lease-please read it carefully. .
SMALL PETS MAY BE ALLOWED-NO DOGS (no matter how small)
TENANT IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR HEAT, PHONE, ELECTRIC, LAWN & SNOW PLOWING- (in 2004 one local contractor has quoted $35 to plow). The lawn is very small, takes about 15 minutes to mow. We prefer non-smokers. |
