Supplements: Located within 3 miles of downtown Great Barrington, the location couldn't be better for this 2-acre property surrounded on both sides of the road by conserved farmland, hills and woods. The setting is beautiful. There are exceptional specimen trees and shrubs on the property. No pesticides or chemicals are allowed on the two acres and the surrounding conserved land. Restrictive covenants are in place to maintain the quality and character of this property. In 1870 +/ a more formal Victorian portion of the house was added to the original 1820's farmhouse. Double doors lead from the wrap around porch into the foyer with a beautifully restored black walnut stair rail. The formal living room with a fireplace and the formal dining room with a built-in china closet each flows graciously from either side of the foyer. Both rooms have tall bays of windows bathing the rooms in natural light. The spacious kitchen has a tin ceiling. Off the kitchen is a large laundry room. The family room with en suite bath is located next to the kitchen and has access to the greenhouse/sun porch. There is a large first floor bedroom with en suite bath. On the second floor there are five bedrooms, two with en suite baths, a beautifully renovated bath accessed from the hall and a large linen closet room. There are three sets of stairs offering great flexibility for room purposing. Some of the bedrooms would work perfectly as a playroom, home offices or home studios. The converted barn has two apartments, each with two bedrooms and two baths. Each is fully appliance'd with stove, refrigerator, dishwasher and washer dryer. Each apartment has separate propane and electric service. Current owners have rented the second floor apartment on a yearly basis and the first floor apartment as a seasonal short term basis through Airbnb. The post and beam barn has been restored. It has two garage bays, a workshop and a loft. There is separate one car garage with additional storage.
