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 Mountains, and Williamstown.

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 Clark, the Williams College Museum of Art, Williamstown Theatre Festival and MASS MoCA almost at your doorstep, not to mention the weekend farmers market for local produce and offerings.
