Pastoral views: Upscale family home on approximately five (5) acres with lush, gorgeous panoramic views of mountains, pastures, and breathtaking Berkshire farmland. This lovely property is only 3 minutes from the center of Great Barrington and less than 10 minutes from both Ski Butternut and ski Catamount!
Driving along a country road you come to a long approach with circular drive. The house sits far back from any road… you may choose to park in the drive or inside the two-car garage with direct entry into the house.
The entry way is light-filled and dramatic and draws you into a lovely open loft-like main floor with a wall of windows and doors highlighting the stunning views, which surround this lovely property.
This main floor has open living with kitchen, dining room, home office and living room. The dining room seats 6 comfortably and the kitchen has a plenty of prep space with a stunning center Island with additional bar seating for five. Just past the dining table is the wood burning fireplace stove with seating and a private home office is around the corner – just out of the fray of everyday living. Over-sized windows and several sets of sliding glass doors surround this area. The main floor master suite has a beautifully mosaic-tiled sunken bathtub with separate tiled shower stall – his and her sinks finish this picture. The bedroom has a king sized bed, huge windows, and sliding doors which lead to an outdoor terrace where you might enjoy your morning coffee or star gaze at night. Modern touches, updated by award winning local Berkshire architect, Steve Dietmann in 2010, made throughout this lovely home keep things clean and simple. There is an additional full bathroom with lovely tiled shower!
Upstairs are two guest bedrooms – one with a queen sized bed and another larger dormitory type bedroom perfect for children. A fun sleepover party is easily accomplished with a full bed, twin bed, and additional toddler bed. This room is open and fun and could easily accommodate a few extra sleeping bags, if need be. These two bedrooms share a full bathroom with tub – shower combination.
The lower level has an additional 4th bedroom and full bath with shower. There is a media room/playroom with cozy sectional sofa, treadmill, stairmaster, and plenty of room to rumpus. This lower level has windows, which let the natural light in… nice touch!
There is a super clean two-car garage with direct access into the house. Outside you have wrap around decks, views, gas grill, outdoor seating, natural borders, some fencing, and a lovely lush yard for children to kick a ball around and run. Did I mention the views?
