Set on over 12 private acres just minutes from the center of Great Barrington, this impeccably designed estate offers an extraordinary combination of luxury, privacy, and panoramic southern views of the Taconic Range, including the iconic silhouette of Mount Everett. Blending effortless indoor elegance with immersive outdoor living, this property captures the essence of Berkshire leisure.
Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed to host both family and guests in complete comfort, offering five well-appointed bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and a half bath, providing privacy and ease for all. The first-floor primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, complete with two separate full bathrooms for an elevated sense of luxury. The main level of the home includes a generous living room, a formal dining room featuring a custom four-wall mural by noted (formerly local) artist Laurel Tewes, a cozy library or den, a well-appointed kitchen with three refrigeration units including a side-by-side Sub-Zero, two Miele dishwashers, a six-burner Viking range with double ovens, and two large pantries. There are two screened porches: one informal and accessible from the living room, and a larger one off the kitchen vestibule, currently used for outdoor dining. A guest powder room completes the main level.
The second floor includes a second primary suite, along with three additional spacious guest bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom to ensure comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike. A well-equipped gym provides a dedicated space for fitness and wellness, while a large laundry room with two washers and dryers adds everyday convenience. A generous corner office, with windows facing east, south, and west, offers a quiet and functional workspace, complete with a dumbwaiter to easily transfer items between floors.
The grounds are a nature lover's retreat, featuring a network of walking trails, including approximately half a mile of cut grass perimeter paths, and strategically located perennial gardens. A fenced backyard encloses roughly three-quarters of an acre, perfect for pets or recreation. Along the southern side of the home, a slightly elevated patio spans the kitchen, dining room, and living room, with direct access from French doors and a single kitchen entry. Part of the patio is shaded by mature, 20+ year-old wisteria growing over a trellis, while another section is covered by a motorized awning, creating an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
Throughout the home you will find six functioning fireplaces, wide-plank wood flooring, oversized windows, and exceptional craftsmanship in every detail. An oversized three-car garage adds functionality to the home's many luxury features. Ideally located just minutes from the vibrant center of Great Barrington, the property also offers quick and scenic back-road access to Taft Farm, Catamount, Tanglewood, and the surrounding cultural and recreational attractions that make the Berkshires so desirable. This is a rare opportunity to own a one of a kind estate in the region's most sought-after settings, where refined living meets timeless natural beauty.
