Description of the Country Home
|
Enjoy mountain views from large windows on two levels of this elegant embankment ranch.
A soaring ceiling and flowing spaces give this home an expansive feel, while two raised hearth fireplaces and exposed beams make it cozy. The Millbrook kitchen was designed by the resident gourmet cook for maximum efficiency and easy entertaining.
The light-drenched master bedroom with its French doors and a custom-built closet and the first-floor family room were added to the house in 1979 to augment the open, L-shaped formal living room and dining area and the adjacent kitchen.
The lower level has a large guest room with two closets, one cedar-lined, a combination den/office area with built-ins and a walk-in closet, a laundry room, the second full bathroom and a bomb shelter/wine cellar.
A new roof with 30-year architectural shingles, a drip edge and a water and ice shield with heated cables was installed in 2006; a new septic system will be put in place this spring.
Wonderfully private but not isolated, this house sits atop a hill studded with fruit trees and screened by evergreens, on 2.8 acres overlooking Yokun Ridge in a premier Richmond neighborhood.
Ideal for year-round living or as a vacation retreat, with many Berkshire recreational and cultural attractions nearby, including Richmond Pond, Bousquet Ski Area, Pittsfield State Forest, Tanglewood, Shakespeare & Company, the Colonial Theatre, Barrington Stage and the Berkshire Museum. |
