This home boasts an easy-to-get-to location, and a wonderful layout for work or play. Easy upkeep and well maintained throughout. First floor Master Suite. Plenty of closets and storage and 3.5 baths. A desirable first or second home. Just over two hours from Greater Boston and three and a half hours from NYC.

Perfect for those seeking a first-floor MBR Suite or maybe for the family that needs room to spread out. Lower level offers a large space for friends and family gatherings. The greenhouse is just the right size for anyone wanting to garden, and the oversized garage is a must-see for the car enthusiast and essential for the ease of winter parking.

What’s the most fun thing to do within five miles of this house?

As a resident of Becket, you have access to area ponds and lakes, which offer beach and boating opportunities. There is a common space with a tennis court in Deerhaven as well as hiking trails. Visit historic Chesterwood, Jacob’s Pillow, Tanglewood, and the many Berkshire attractions and restaurants.

If this house could talk, what secret would it tell about its history?

This home has been lovingly cared for by someone who enjoyed the art of gardening and has done all of the plantings surrounding the home. There is an underground sprinkler system to help you maintain them.  Most of the 2,5 acres are wooded. Enjoy the view from your fully screened porch (even the underside is screened) or the large deck.
