Public Remarks: Nestled in a charming historic southeast Pittsfield neighborhood, this 4+ bedroom, 5+ bath gem was brought to life in 1914 by the talented architects Harding and Seaver. Their impressive portfolio features notable landmarks like the Berkshire Museum and Lenox Town Hall, showcasing their remarkable contribution to the area's rich history. This grand, yet comfortable home spans four inviting levels! You'll find bright main living areas on the first and second floors, a comfortable finished third floor with a full bath, and a cozy finished basement. Craftsmanship speaks volumes, with the charm of original hardwood floors running throughout, adding warmth to every room. The original windows, made of hand-blown glass, function well with storm protection. Each window features custom cellular shades and/or insulated drapes tailored for energy efficiency and elegance. Enjoy the perks of recent improvements, such as a thoughtfully updated kitchen and bathrooms, and upgraded heating, cooling, plumbing, and electrical systems. Plus, benefit from a new roof, solar panels, and mini-split systems that enhance both comfort and efficiency! The kitchen received a lovely renovation featuring custom Wood Mode maple cabinets that bring a warm touch, beautiful porcelain tiles, and electric radiant heat. The stunning granite and quartz countertops add a touch of elegance. For cooking enthusiasts, there's a Bertazoni six-burner range, which was carefully sourced from a local shop here in the Berkshires. The hood vents directly outside, keeping the air fresh. You'll also find a convenient electric oven and a charming French-door refrigerator beautifully integrated into the cabinets. And let's not forget the delightful bonus of an original butler's pantry! When it comes to outdoor living, you'll love the charming touch of 12" wood boards for the exterior. The home features a delightful covered porch off the dining room, perfect for cozy meals, a spacious, seasonal screened-in patio that invites relaxation, and a lovely sleeping porch attached to the primary bedroom for those peaceful evenings. For your furry friends, a fenced dog run extends behind the house. Enjoy the added peace of mind with an invisible fence around the property. The gardens are simply stunning, showcasing gorgeous seasonal plantings from cheerful daffodils and heartwarming bleeding hearts to an abundance of peonies, enchanting dogwoods, elegant rhododendrons, and graceful crab apple and birch trees. You'll also find willows and a variety of evergreen species adding to the beauty of this incredible property! Right in the heart of the Berkshires, this property offers the perfect blend of urban convenience and suburban tranquility. Enjoy easy access to local shops, restaurants, parks, schools, museums, theaters, and music, all just a stone's throw away.
