Description

THE ULTIMATE IN-TOWN BERKSHIRE HOME Originally designed by a renown Boston architect as a summer home, this house was designed, built and beautifully restored for family and friends to enjoy for years to come. Surrounded by mature gardens, this private Lenox home is at once grand and understated. The flow of private rooms and gathering spaces throughout the house redefines subtle graciousness. The entry hall with its noted oculus railing above creates a delightful open space at the heart of the home. Sitting rooms and living rooms flow one into the other and out to the fabulous screened porch. The kitchen, designed to accommodate entertaining on a large scale is also perfectly cozy and a perfect place to enjoy a cold afternoon before a crackling fire.

Supplements: Located on prestigious Cliffwood Street within walking distance of downtown Lenox, this exceptionally welcoming Berkshire "cottage" on 3.17 acres epitomizes gracious living with a porte cochere and sixteen fireplaces . Meticulously restored and updated, the six-bedroom house has many original architectural details such as paneled walls, carved mantelpieces and a two-tier staircase with an oculus on the second floor that overlooks the generous foyer (large enough for a baby grand piano.) The main floor has exceptional flow for a 19th century house: The library and living room with adjoining den (separated by pocket doors) have massive French doors that open onto a large screened porch; the dining room, with built-in corner cabinets, and billiards room are ideal for entertaining; the cook's kitchen with capacious dining and lounge areas opens onto a large deck. The adjacent mudroom, with a contoured entry doors, still has the original "call board" for the servants. In the basement, there's the original ice room and a dumb waiter for transporting firewood to the upper floors. This property has a gracious driveway, mature gardens, a privately situated swimming pavilion and a barn-like garage that can accommodate five cars. One of the few 19th century cottages that has been maintained as a private residence, this is a rare opportunity to live and work in a park-like setting so close to town.
