This classic cedar shingled house has privacy and view that are increasingly hard to find. The house sits at the end of a quarter mile driveway through the woods to the highest point of land where you only hear the magical sounds of nature. The 130 degree horizon sweeps around from the Berkshire foothills, to Mt. Greylock near Williamstown, and up to Mt. Haystack in Vermont. The house was built in1996 under an architect's creative eye, with the outside entirely weather resistant cedar, and the interior the warm honey tones of gently aging pine. The floor to ceiling glass in the living room/dining room brings in the huge skies, sunsets and dramatic weather of all seasons. Exposed beams, wood floors and a Vermont Castings wood stove create a sense of timeless warmth. The property consists of 8.9 acres abuts conservation land and has a stone walled terrace, deck, porch and workshop/shed. It is the perfect getaway for all seasons.
