For whom is this house perfect?
Cable Mills has undergone a dramatic transformation from its past as a factory making wire and cable dating back to the post-Civil War era. Keeping true to its original form, the homes at Cable Mills showcase the historic mill roots of the buildings with architecturally exposed brick, steel, and timber throughout. Most homes have 12-to-16-foot Douglas Fir ceilings, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances with gas-fired ranges, generous closets, and in-home laundry and timber throughout. In addition, many homes have sweeping views of the Green River, Berkshire Hills, and Williamstown.
What’s the most fun thing to do within five miles of this house?
Residents of Cable Mills have access to our landscaped grounds that include the Outdoor Living Room and the River Walk. The Outdoor Living Room has two gas grills open to residents, a fire bowl with Adirondack chairs and tables for enjoying the beautiful sounds and views of the Green River it overlooks. There is also an oversized dining table and seating for larger gatherings.  The historic Cable Mills community sits on three acres and offers a tranquil respite in the heart of Williamstown and the Berkshires along the Green River. If you feel like wandering further, we also have a bike room on site for all our adventurers.
If this house could talk, what secret would it tell about its history?
Cable Mills homes are approximately half a mile to shopping, dining, Williams College and one of the top collegiate golf courses—Taconic Golf Club—and in close proximity to skiing, hiking, rafting, museums and all the Berkshires has to offer. It’s hard to pick one thing to do with the The Clark, Williamstown Theatre Festival and MASS MoCA almost at your doorstep, not to mention the weekend farmers market for local produce and offerings.
