Truly a one-of-a-kind home sits on 19.85 acres of woods adjacent to the Wyantenuck Golf Course and has a beautiful half-mile-long driveway. It’s the perfect combination of privacy and accessibility to downtown Great Barrington. The home boasts over 7,000 sq. ft. of living space as well as an over 3,000 sq. ft. 4 car garage. The house has 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths with two of those bedrooms and one bath located in a separate guest wing. The expansive primary bedroom suite has a separate sitting room with wall-to-wall windows. Three massive common areas include the living room, theater/game room and family room. Other rooms throughout include 2 offices, meditation tower, workout room, bonus room and indoor pool inside of a solarium. The kitchen is highlighted by a commercial Viking range, custom cabinets, Subzero refrigerator, and a small fireplace. A large dining area off the kitchen is surrounded by large windows overlooking the tree-lined backyard. Two large decks off each of the two main levels provide plenty of space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxing. The property itself has trails throughout, leading to larger state trails where you can hike for hours without ever having to drive anywhere. This property truly has it all.
What’s the most compelling thing about this property?
It’s not often you can find that rare combination of beauty, privacy and accessibility, and this house has all three! The house is distinctive with unique features, built to relate harmoniously to its gorgeous surroundings, and very close to downtown Great Barrington and all the other amazing Berkshire attractions.
For whom is this house perfect?
This house is large enough, with 7000 sq. ft. of living space, to accommodate a large extended family and many guests but offers many intimate spaces to be comfortable for just a couple. When friends and family visit, they can have their own private wing. The many different areas – home offices, entertainment rooms, solarium with indoor pool, chef-ready kitchen, and huge comfortable living room – make it perfect for the owner who wants to bring many-faceted professional and private lives together in one beautiful location.
What’s the most fun thing to do within five miles of this house?
If you can tear yourself away from the comforts of home and the hiking trails on your own property, the town of Great Barrington, just minutes away, offers shopping, great food stores, restaurants, movies, and live performances at two beautiful performance spaces. For winter sports, two ski areas, Butternut and Catamount, are each just a few miles away. In the summer, there’s a private golf club right next door. An afternoon at the Great Barrington town beach on Lake Mansfield is a lovely way to be part of the local scene. Tanglewood, Jacob’s Pillow, Lenox, Stockbridge and Hillsdale are all a short easy drive away.
If this house could talk, what secret would it tell about its history?
This house would tell you about the quality of its construction and all the attention to detail that make it feel so special. It’s move-in ready and waiting to welcome you home.
