The road ends here. At the end of quiet Old Quarry Road, still much as it felt 150 years ago, sits a circa 1840 farmhouse overlooking its own broad lawn, with sixty acres of woodland stretching beyond. Thoughtfully expanded over time, the original farmhouse and later addition are seamlessly integrated, yet retain separate entrances, giving everyone a little space of their own. Three bedrooms are in the original house, two more in the addition, and every bedroom has its own private bath. No sharing necessary. Multiple wood-burning fireplaces, two screened porches, an old tennis court and a stone wall between the dining and living rooms add to the story. Once a farm, now a home with history, land and possibility. The road ends here, but the rest is yours. The current owners weren't looking for this house. They were looking for a small lake cottage. Instead, they found something they hadn't expected. Twenty-six years later, it's easy to see why. You can even feel it when you're here. This became their place to gather. In summer, the back screened porch was their living room and dining room. In winter, they came together in front of the fireplace. Easy to get to from Boston and New York. Easy to get to great restaurants and farmers' markets, world-class dance and theater, skiing and lakes, and secret spots that are crazy beautiful. Life happened here. Memories were made here. This isn't a perfectly restored showpiece. It is a real old house, with history, quirks, and room for the next family to make it their own. That's good. You can move right in, live in it, and let the house help you figure out what you want to change, what you want to preserve, and how you want to live. Inherent to the home is the land. Like much of New England, what were once farm fields and pastures have gradually returned to forest. Old cart roads still wind through the woods, inviting exploration in every season. Follow them toward the remains of a small nineteenth-century quarry just beyond the northern property line. That is living history. Hike, mountain bike, cross-country ski, or just explore, right from your back door. Revive the gardens. Pick blueberries and apples. Spend the afternoon at the nearby beach. Bike to dinner. The house owes you nothing and you owe nothing to the house. The home is what it is, and no apologies are needed. A lovely old farmhouse, with 60 acres, at the end of a quiet country lane, where you can look up at night and the stars are so bright you can see the Milky Way, and hear the peepers and the owls, and that's it. Enjoy the uncommon peace that comes from knowing the road ends at your home. But the end of the road is really just the beginning. The best old houses don't ask to be admired. They ask to be lived in. Not everyone will understand this house. The right person will.

2.8 acres on a quiet country road in Otis. Level lot with stream. Lightly wooded. Perfect recreational lot for camping. Great location for hiking and seclusion. Nature at its best, the perfect hideaway!

At the end of a quiet dead-end road in Sandisfield, this c.1892 four-bedroom farmhouse sits less than twenty feet from the wild and scenic West Branch of the Farmington River, a federally protected, free-flowing trout river. Four bedrooms. Two full baths plus a half. 2,516 sq ft. 4.61 acres. Beautifully transformed interior: a granite-island kitchen rebuilt from the ground up, wide softwood floors, working brick fireplace, cast-iron clawfoot tub, first-floor primary opening through French doors to a stone patio, stairs to lawn and river. Kitchen and dining open to a deck over the water. Quarry-granite three-car garage, studio cottage with grandfathered footprint, and a second river parcel with 19th-century mill history included. Flood Zone A12, elevation certificate available. The river is twenty feet from the back door. Not a view of the river, not near the river. The river, close enough that you fall asleep to it in summer and wake to it in winter, when the ice shelf forms along the near bank and the hawks work the open water downstream. This is the thing about 14 Roosterville Road that no description fully prepares you for: the Farmington is not an amenity. It is the address. The sellers transformed the interior thoughtfully and well. Wide softwood floors, exposed ceiling beams, and a working brick fireplace anchor the living room, which easily holds two seating areas. The kitchen was rebuilt from the ground up with a granite island, slate-grey open cabinetry, and windows on three sides that keep the hills and water present while you cook. It is the heart the house always deserved. The kitchen and dining room open onto a deck over the river. The first-floor primary bedroom opens through French doors to a stone patio, with stairs down to the lawn and the Farmington just beyond. Up the painted black-and-white staircase: three more bedrooms, a family room, and a full bath. Two full baths total, one with a classic cast-iron clawfoot tub, one newly tiled. Propane hot water heat through a Viessmann boiler. High-speed internet. Spring means trout stocked at the Clark Road Bridge, right at the property's edge, while hawks and bald eagles work the calm flat water below the house. Nights belong to the fire pit and the sound of the river under a sky without light pollution. Across the road, a neighbor's hay fields roll toward a long mountain view. The property abuts Army Corps of Engineers land on the river side, no development possible, ever, and connects without crossing private land to an old stagecoach trail and the climbing ledges of Hanging Mountain. This stretch of Roosterville Road exists because of two floods. The first came in 1938, the second in the twin hurricanes of 1955. Together they buried the old road that once ran through here and left this place at the end of a quiet dead-end, closer to the river than to the rest of the world. It is one of those rare cases where a natural disaster produced something worth keeping. The outbuildings are exceptional. The three-car garage is built of hand-cut quarry granite, the feather marks of the quarrymen's tools still visible in the stone. The Little House, a sweet clapboard cottage with a grandfathered footprint, has served as a painting studio. What it becomes next is entirely up to you: guest suite, Airbnb, home office, art studio, or something not yet imagined. Included in the sale is a second parcel just north of the Clark Road Bridge, once the site of a Trip Hammer Shop and Saw-Mill advertised in the Connecticut Courant in 1833. The old mill channels and stonework are still legible in the earth. It is a remarkable piece of history to walk, and a beautiful private place to sit by the water. This property is located in FEMA Zone A12. Flood insurance is required for mortgaged purchases and advised for all. An elevation certificate is available. In 1918, a young Italian immigrant named Dominic Campetti, who had once sailed back across the Atlantic to find his sweetheart Caterina Consolati and convince her to begin a life with him in America, purchased the old Elizur Deming Farm on this stretch of the Farmington River. Their descendants farmed it for years after. In the cellar, beneath a trap door in the corner of a first-floor closet, hard cider barrels once kept company with a 50-gallon press and loyal customers from miles around. The state police came. The Berkshire Evening Eagle covered it with evident local enjoyment. The trap door is still there. The river is still there. The next chapter is yours.

The Rev. Edmund Sears grew up on a farm down the road in Sandisfield. He carried its sky with him. That sky gave us ''It Came Upon a Midnight Clear.'' Simon Winchester arrived 150 years later, trained his telescope on Saturn, and declared the stars were like ''diamonds on velvet.'' Eight books written here, a million words at least. c.1760 and 1840. 4 bedrooms, 3 baths. Library, keeping room with original crane fireplace, Aga kitchen, vaulted living room, screened-in porch. A c.1812 granary rebuilt as a writing studio with loft and full bath. Stone walls, orchard, meadow, vernal stream. 50 acres. 3/4 mile road frontage. Borders protected land. A serious Berkshire country property with a sky that still delivers. Offers in excess of $2,250,000 considered. The Rev. Edmund Sears grew up on a farm just down the road in Sandisfield, working it with his hands through the Berkshire seasons, a poem always singing through his head. He left at twenty-one for Union College in Schenectady, then Harvard Divinity School, then answered the call to carry the gospel to the frontier settlements of Ohio, where the forests were still being cleared, the winters were brutal, and the nearest town was days away by horse. He was a young man from a quiet hillside in the Southern Berkshires doing serious work at the raw edge of the known world. But Sandisfield had been that world not eighty years before, when James Ayrault built the first house on this very farm. In 1760 this hillside was the frontier, as wild and remote as anything Sears would find in Ohio. He came back east eventually. Settled in Wayland, Massachusetts, as a Unitarian minister. And in 1849 he wrote a carol that has been sung every Christmas since. The sky it describes, full of stars and angels near the earth, was the sky of this corner of the Southern Berkshires, where the air is clean and the nights are dark and the hills rise toward heaven in a way that stays with you long after you have gone. That remove is not historical. It is still here. Sandisfield sits two and a half hours from New York, two from Boston, and feels like neither. In the winter of 2001, nearly 150 years later, shortly after his own purchase of the property, Simon Winchester stepped outside at three in the morning and pointed his telescope at Saturn. The air was bitter cold. The sky was moonless, and the stars looked, he said, like diamonds on velvet. He came in only when the dawn chorus was beginning. He found out only later that morning the intimate connection: five years after writing that carol, Edmund Sears's own brother, Joshua, had lived on this very farm. Winchester had already written more than 20 books, many of them bestsellers. Over the next quarter century at Barnhill Farm he would go on to write eight more (soon to be nine). All were written in 'his study' he had built specifically fit for purpose: a c.1812 granary he found in serious disrepair, restored and re-erected here in 2006. The Property and the Setting Barnhill Farm sits on approximately 60 acres along Silverbrook Road, a lightly traveled, town-maintained road in Sandisfield. 3/4 of a mile of the property's own frontage runs alongside it. Stone walls border the drive. The sign at the road reads Barnhill Farm. Below it, in smaller letters: The Sears-Hawley House. Two Birthdays The original structure on this land was built around 1760 by James Ayrault, whose family had acquired this lot in Sandisfield's first land division. In 1840 a new addition was built in the Greek Revival style. The entire property was restored with care and precision in 1985 by an old-house specialist, who set aside every salvageable original element, recreated missing plaster and molding by hand, refitted the foundation with quarried stone. Not a house made to look old. An old house brought back to itself. Winchester purchased Barnhill Farm in 2001, continuing the project of lovingly updating an old house. In 2006 he renovated the original early colonial southern end of the home, transforming it from primarily being a screened-in porch: opening the interior, vaulting the ceiling to expose the timber beams, rebuilding the original galley kitchen behind the keeping room fireplace with custom cabinetry and the Aga set against the chimney, adding a mudroom entry from the driveway, and at the far end of the living space, building a dual-sided wood-burning fireplace with a new screened-in porch on its other face. Coming In Three doors face the driveway. The formal front door of the 1840 house opens into a proper entry hall. To the right, the Morning Room: a fireplace, Farrow & Ball Pink Ground on the walls. Further along, the library: dark aubergine walls, wood stove, shelves from floor to ceiling, the particular stillness of a room made entirely for books and the thinking they produce. At the end of the hall, a small bedroom, honestly more useful as a very good study. Across the hall is the keeping room, the informal heart of the 1760 house. A large fireplace anchors the space, now fitted with a wood stove. In the afternoon, light falls across the wide plank floors picking up the warmth in the old wood the way only afternoon light in a house this age manages to do. On winter mornings, breakfast happens here bathed in early light, and this is where people end up after dinner. Off to the north: a full bath with laundry, a pantry, and the larger of the two ground floor bedrooms, its door set into the corner of the west wall. Upstairs Stairs in the entry hall take you to a second floor landing with a primary bedroom, a guest room, dressing room-closet, and a full bath, with views over the orchard, quiet in the way that an upstairs room in an old house on a country road knows how to be quiet. A narrow staircase continues to a fully finished third floor attic. The Kitchen The Aga, cream and solid, is undoubtedly the heart of this bespoke kitchen. Custom cabinetry, built to the character of the house rather than imposed upon it, lines the walls. A peninsula of warm wood reaches out from the old kitchen into the newer open space beyond, bridging two centuries of cooking in a single easy gesture, and draws you into the vaulted living room. Winchester says the house is superbly designed for light, and he is right: in winter the sun rises directly into this kitchen and tracks the full length of the room through the day. Timber beams span the vaulted ceiling above wide plank floors. The living space extends toward the far end, where the dual-sided fireplace stands between the room and the screened-in porch, doing what a well-placed fireplace does: making both sides of itself worth being on. The Screened-In Porch This room is used in every season. In winter, glazed panels close off the weather and the sun warms it like a greenhouse. Breakfast out here, and afternoon tea, and wine in the evening when the fireplace is lit. Come late spring, some of the panels give way to screens and the room opens to the meadow and the sky. A long table for dinner. The telescope positioned to track the planets on their path across the southern sky. No meaningful light pollution reaches Barnhill Farm. The Granary The granary stands at the edge of the orchard, reached along a path through the perennial gardens. The apple trees spread west from it into the open meadow. It sits at exactly the right remove from the house: present but apart, close enough to walk to in the morning with your coffee, far enough removed from domestic routines to allow for contemplation and creation. Perfectly suited for guest accommodations as well. Winchester found it near Cambridge, New York: a c.1812 structure in serious disrepair. He had it carefully dismantled, restored and re-erected here in 2006. What stands today is a freestanding structure with intricate timber framing fully visible, books lining every wall, a working research library on the main level, and a sleeping loft above. A full bath is fitted at one end. Winchester steps out onto the studio stoop on mornings and breathes the air. Apple blossoms in May. Apple pressing parties in October. Winchester is taking the books and art with him. Everything else remains. The Art Studio, the Barn, and the Outbuildings The main barn is a weathered timber-frame structure whose interior Setsuko Winchester, a former journalist turned artist and historian, fitted with a chandelier from their Chelsea apartment and a mezzanine level. The design borrowed from a nearby barn she admired. An art studio and woodshop occupy the lower level. All windows in the main house were replaced with insulated units designed to match the character of the old house, and solar panels on the barn's south-facing roof cover electrical costs without disturbing the 19th century feel. The red equipment barn nearby provides an EV charging outlet and stands closer to the road. The Land The property moves from one outdoor space to the next, and no two are alike. Close to the house, a stone patio with a fire pit. Beyond it, a raised bed garden, and frog pond give you other spots to sit and contemplate, quietly listen to birdsong in the morning, or hear the peepers start at dusk. The orchard produces cider apples, and an abundance of peaches. Wild blueberry bushes run along the treeline where the old growth apple trees give way to forest. Setsuko has never used a pesticide or artificially fertilized the plants, relying instead on the compost produced on the property and finding the right spot for each varietal. In the pine grove beyond the meadow, the light changes completely. Pine needles carpet the ground. Adirondack chairs and a hammock have lived in here for years. Even in July it is cool and unhurried, the kind of place where time moves differently. A vernal stream meanders through the woodland beyond, heard before it is seen. The property borders protected land. 50' into the woods and the house is completely gone. The canopy closes. It is quiet in a way that is easier to feel than to explain. What This Is Edmund Hamilton Sears grew up down the road and never forgot the night-time sky which came upon a midnight clear. Simon Winchester found it, wrote his books and stayed 25 years. Setsuko Winchester arrived to continue work on the property while carefully maintaining its early American character. She shaped the land, the barn, the gardens, into what they are today. The house has been restored with skill and lived in with intelligence. The granary is intact. The orchard blooms every May. The sky has not changed. Come and see what that feels like.

A charcoal board-and-batten house on a wooded knoll in Sandisfield, two acres, nearly finished. Dark hardwood floors, a kitchen with butcher block and quartz, a navy vanity with marble and brass, a teal pendant over a wood-topped island. A bedroom, a finished loft, a full basement the same footprint as the house. The septic design is permitted for three bedrooms and the leach field installation is the primary remaining item before a Certificate of Occupancy, though buyers should satisfy themselves as to what else may be required. The price reflects where things stand. Own land in the Berkshires, twenty minutes from Great Barrington, for a number that actually makes sense. On a knoll in the Sandisfield woods, set back from the road behind two acres of trees, there is a charcoal board-and-batten house that someone nearly finished. Dark hardwood floors throughout. A kitchen with white shaker cabinets, butcher block counters, quartz on the perimeter, and a teal pendant over a wood-topped island. A navy vanity with a marble top and brass fixtures. A bedroom with a mirrored closet and windows into the trees. A finished loft above, reached by a ship's ladder, with a cathedral window at the peak. A full poured-concrete basement running the entire footprint of the house, dry, with a new water heater, a new pressure tank, and a new electrical panel. Picture what you do with the rest of it. The basement is unfinished and waiting. The two acres are rough and yours. The loft is quiet and has good light. People have turned less into more with clearer consciences. This is the Berkshires. Twenty minutes from Great Barrington, its restaurants, its farmers market, its independent shops. Tanglewood in summer. Skiing in winter. Trails in every direction. A life that people pay considerably more to approximate, available here for a number that leaves room to breathe. What remains before a Certificate of Occupancy: the leach field installation is the known item. The septic tank is in and the design is permitted for three bedrooms. Buyers should satisfy themselves as to whether anything additional may be required. The price reflects where things stand honestly. Who comes here? Someone ready to stop renting and start owning, who wants land under their feet and a monthly payment that doesn't punish them for it. Someone done with more house than they need, looking for something small and quiet and theirs. Someone who looks at the unfinished basement and the two rough acres and already has plans. All of them are right. This is not a camp. It is not a tiny house on a trailer. It is a small home on its own land with good bones, real systems, and a Berkshire life waiting just outside the door. Finish the line. Move in. Make it yours.
