About This Home

AVAILABLE FOR THE MONTH OF JULY: The Perfect Berkshires Summer Retreat with POOL! If you want the charm of an 1810 New England farmhouse with all the comforts and conveniences of 2024, this is the house for you! Set on a hilltop overlooking 15 private acres, with the Green River (known for trout fishing) running through the property, this charming four-bedroom house overlooks a 20x40 foot pool, beautifully nestled in complete privacy with lovely views of the surroundings. All of the four large bedrooms in this air-conditioned house have their own ensuite bathrooms. There is also a powder room in the common area and another full bath in the finished basement. Three of the bedrooms have queen-sized beds, while the fourth has two single beds (which can be converted to a king). There are two twin beds in the basement, which also has a sitting area with a large-screen TV and a ping pong table. For people on a working vacation, one of the bedrooms has an office nook and another has a desk, and fiber optic internet service distributes a strong Wi-Fi signal throughout the house. One of the two ground-floor bedrooms has French doors that open onto a private porch with beautiful views. A formal dining room, living room, den, and large kitchen round out the ground floor, and there are two laundry rooms, one on each floor. The fully equipped kitchen has almost new appliances, a table that seats 6, and a center island with 3 bar stools. The kitchen opens onto a lovely screened-in porch -- a wonderful place to read a book, have a drink, or enjoy a meal with friends. A gas grill outside is a few steps away, making it easy to barbecue dinner. Beautiful flower and vegetable gardens surround the house. The pool has a lovely flagstone patio with a large seating area and a built-in firepit. The price includes weekly housekeeping service, scheduled at your convenience. The house is 6 miles from Great Barrington and 6 miles from Guido's, likely the best supermarket you'll ever go to. Tanglewood, Shakespeare and Co., The Mount (Edith Wharton's house), and Jacob's Pillow are all within easy reach.
