Exceptional design and craftsmanship distinguish this stunning home. The single-level interior is warm, sophisticated and filled with natural light, with the kitchen, dining and living areas flowing together in one open space surrounded by specialty windows and French doors. Set on four private acres amid the highest peaks in South County, the home offers immediate access to premier hiking and protected lands. Locally sourced Massachusetts walnut floors, Scavolini cabinetry, Miele and Sub-Zero appliances, extensive custom woodwork, shoji-inspired glass sliding doors, and a dramatic stone fireplace wall speak to the quality and attention to detail throughout. A two-sided gas fireplace connects the living room and primary bedroom, which features rich woodwork and an en-suite bath with an oversized walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bath with a soaking tub. Downstairs, a large heated recreation room provides flexible additional space. A wraparound deck and screened porch extend the living space outdoors. Just beyond, a stream babbles year-round, and a private trail leads out from the home. An oversized heated two-car garage, radiant heat, central air, a whole-house generator and fiber internet add comfort and convenience, including the ability to work easily from home. The Appalachian Trail, Mount Everett, Bash Bish Falls and Alander Mountain are all nearby, with miles of protected land and exceptional hiking just outside the door. Quiet roads, spectacular dark skies and Mount Washington's low property taxes add to the appeal, while Great Barrington and New York City remain within easy reach.
