Clean and nice but note 2 caveats

The Kimball upstairs was clean and functional. Potential guests need to know 2 things: the 2nd bedroom with 2 twin beds is only accessible by going through the bedroom with the one king bed. Also, there's another rental unit in the basement beneath this one and we could hear everything happening in the basement: people talking, sneezing, coughing, snoring at night, music, etc. which made us lose a bunch of sleep.

About the host

Hosted by Lee kimball

I grew up in the farmhouse, moved to a nearby town for a time a moved back 15 years ago with my husband Bill and 2 children. I've lived elsewhere an travelled a bit but always enjoyed our unique New England town. We're proud to be inclusive - there's something for everyone here. With the 5 colleges there is plenty to do from biking to concerts and museums and sporting events. I am a pharmacist and work full time but I'm a real home body that enjoys gardening and fixer upper projects.
Bill is a self employed plumber who raises pheasants and chukar partridge in the late spring thru fall. Bill is an avid hunter and fresh water fisherman.

Why they chose this property

My family has lived and farmed here for 3 generations, my grandfather and father had Leonard Egg farm and Bill is carrying on the tradition with pheasants and chukar partridge. Our rental space is a separate residence attached to the farmhouse.

What makes this property unique

The home away space is casual yet serene. We are close to all the valley has to offer. 5 minute drive to UMass,Amherst,Hampshire, 15 min to Mt Holyoke,Smith.
Our neighborhood has a nice mix of young and not so young to keep things active. Just a two minute walk to the Robert Frost trail ( one way to Puffers pond and the other to the swimming hole under the bridge. Just a 2 minute walk to the Cushman store for light groceries or a pastry or sandwich. 5 minute drive to laundry,pizza,playground(s),bank,barber,convenience store,breakfast,market.
