Overview
Description
Supplements: ... (Read more) Located on perhaps the most tranquil Main Street in Berkshire County, this former home of a mill owner is a local landmark that must be seen to be fully appreciated. Masterful restoration and tasteful updating have combined to ready this Queen Anne for contemporary living. The main house features five bedrooms, each with private bath, and ample open living space, including a sunken sun room, games room and library. A spectacular master bedroom includes a sitting room, Carrera marble fireplace, and large dressing room. The beautiful master bath includes radiant floor heating, a ceiling-fill deep vintage tub, and a linear-drain shower. A two-story seasonal guest cottage has an open concept downstairs and space for two bedrooms upstairs. Potential for an amazing light-filled year-round cottage. 19th century marvels include tile faced hearths with carved mantels, patterned chimney masonry, stained glass windows, radiator plate warmers, and a decorative spindle staircase adorned with a lamp on a newel post. The home is a short walk to cafes and excellent eating and drinking.
