Description
Nestled within 27+ private acres, this custom designed and built home and its expansive gardens have been lovingly created with an artistic sensibility to embrace and enhance the beauty of this exemplary Berkshire home and its peaceful and magical landscaped setting. Crafted with only the finest materials, and meticulously maintained, this gracious property both welcomes and reflects stunning distant views in all seasons through the carefully positioned windows that welcome the outside, in. Outdoors, there is a vista from every turn of the garden paths; across warm fieldstone patios and wide sloping lawns; the play of dappled light on the surface of the natural pond-like swimming pool. In short, a family home where careful and artistic employ of space, coordinated color and lands combines into something serene, restful and often simply Inspiring. Not just a house and gardens, but an environment and concept in the art of creative family living as its ultimate expression and goal.
For the active family, there are thousands of protected acres of Hopkins Forest with miles of world-class hiking trails, literally at the end of the driveway!
The carriage house at the entrance to the property offers great flexibility for many uses (workshop, caretaker's private office, artist's/writer's studio) as do many spaces in the main house, including the potential for an office with private outside access.
The location just 6 minutes from downtown charming and iconic Williamstown, home of Williams College; theatre (Willliamstown Theatre Festival); museums including the world-renowned Clark Institute; and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (Mass MoCa) a mere 15 minutes away; PLUS easy access to ALL things Berkshire, including Tanglewood (25 minutes) and Jacob's Pillow (40 minutes).
