Public Remarks: VIEWS! VIEWS! VIEWS! Built in 1923, this home with stunning views brings a blend of yesteryear's charm with todays modern expectations. Set in a private location on 15 acres of natural beauty with a running brook and outbuildings that have boundless possibilities, this is the country escape most people dream of. The original home with its wide plank flooring, stone fireplace and three cosy bedrooms brings you back in time, but now with high speed internet and forced hot air! The newer addition in 2017 is bright and airy bringing a seamless transition from the old to the new with stainless steel appliances and marble accents. A kitchen/dining area with a wood burning fireplace, primary bedroom, an office space and first floor full bath completed this extension.

The private Berkshires escape one dreams of. Located on a quiet gravel road, and sited on 14.9 bucolic acres with a seasonal brook and spectacular mountain views, this two-story, 4 bedroom, 2 bath home abuts Snow Farm, on what's known as Snow Mountain. A fresh addition, complete with a custom eat-in kitchen, full bathroom, basement, office and bedroom with vaulted ceilings was added to the 1923 cabin in 2017. The original structure is currently used March - November, and needs further winterization, hence the new price. It has otherwise been meticulously maintained and improved upon. There are two working fireplaces and hardwood floors throughout. With some attention, two outbuildings provide endless opportunities. A retreat that offers both modern conveniences and quaint country charm.
