Nestled on a hillside at the western edge of the Berkshires, this home provides both character and endless possibilities. The main house includes an attached garage and 4 bedrooms, one first floor master with full bath and French doors to the back deck. There are three bedrooms upstairs, including two with balconies. The kitchen with its cathedral ceiling has a pantry, an enamel wood stove, a gas range and enough room for a separate dining area. Above the kitchen, an office loft with built in desk and bookshelves looks down on the first floor below. The living room is bright and roomy and includes a large skylight and a second set of French doors leading out to the back deck. The first floor laundry room connects the main house to a 1 bedroom in-law apartment with separate driveway and carport. The apartment has cathedral ceilings, full kitchen, 1.5 baths, AC and separate utilities. The back yard has an established perennial flower bed that blooms from early spring to autumn, a small pond, enough space for a vegetable garden, a small flock of chickens or room to relax on the open deck overlooking the surrounding woods. In front, a small separate cabin with optional wood heat provides a quiet place for retreat or a playhouse for children. The one mile road up to the house is unpaved but very well maintained year-round by the town. Close to shops and attractions that include Tanglewood, Williamstown, Chatham and Hudson. Skiing in the winter at Jiminy Peak and lake rights to Queechy Lake for boating, swimming and ice fishing.OPEN HOUSE Saturday, October 15 at 1pm - 4pm. Apple cider doughnuts and Pumpkins for all!
