This historic New England country estate, located just 10.8 miles from Route 2 in Petersham, MA, was once part of the West Road Inn. The circa 1850 manor is set on 3.28 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, offering a private oasis for nature lovers. Each room is grand with custom millwork and coffered ceilings. French doors from the oversized living room lead to a cozy kitchen, sunroom, and spacious screened-in patio ideal for crisp summer mornings. With 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, this home offers luxury accommodations for gatherings. The master suite overlooks the extensive grounds, including an in-ground pool, tennis courts, and a backyard bordering wooded acres. Additional features include a generator and a 3-car garage. Lovingly restored and preserved, this estate is ready for its next curator. There are 2 additional lots next to the home for sale as well for more privacy. MLS# 73356499 & 73356502
