Only owned by two families since 1864 and sited on six private acres with an expansive wildflower field, old growth trees, lovely gardens and a picturesque stream, this property is an incredibly special. This thoughtfully renovated home had every consideration taken to restore it back to its original beauty, while also incorporating modern conveniences. In the 1920s, the school house was moved from the Westinghouse Estate and combined with the existing farmhouse to create a seamless home meant for large gatherings and entertaining. Solid craftsmanship, original woodwork, plaster walls, and hand carved built-ins, with high-end finishes and lighting, Farrow and Ball paint, gourmet kitchen with Subzero refrigerator, Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, custom cabinetry, handmade walnut butcher blocker island, and radiant floors - nothing was overlooked while also retaining the original charm of the home. Exterior updates include new siding, insulation, copper drain pipes, stone work, and recently painted. Currently used as an artists' studio, the barn could be converted into guest quarters or a caretakers space. Bordering Stockbridge and Lenox, in the heart of the Berkshires, close to Great Barrington and all the area's key attractions: Tanglewood, Jacob's Pillow, museums, great restaurants, parks, hiking, and lakes, and less than 10 minutes from the Red Lion Inn.
