Great Barrington Contemporary

beautiful, private, fantastic light...
an extraordinary home

Striking a perfect balance with an artist's creativity and sensitivity, the home is nonetheless warm and inviting, with an exquisite attention to detail throughout the open 3-level floor plan. Soaring, open spaces contrast with comfortable, living spaces to relax & gather.  Truly a cook's kitchen, 4 bedrooms including a spectacular and expansive master suite. Moments to downtown, yet a world away.

Great Barrington, Berkshire County, Massachusetts

Just past and on the other side of Ski Butternut, and only a few minutes drive from downtown Great Barrington, this extraordinary contemporary home is set with the mountain as it’s backdrop.

Cross the running stream and park in the oversized two car garage.  Through a breezeway to the attached two-car garage and a sheltered, private brick patio surrounded by boulders,  you enter the home through a convenient mud room/foyer.  Immediately you realize this home is no ordinary home as the double height hallway beckons for your art to be displayed and the gleaming raw steel bannister arches upward.

The open plan main floor is both inspiring and comfortable.  The first doorway brings you into a large kitchen and dining room.  Blonde and beautiful maple butcher block counters sing out to the cook in the family.  There are two sinks, professional-grade stainless steel appliances including a 6 burner with griddle FiveStar cooktop, double ovens, and italian cabinets. There is a double-sided wood-burning fireplace open to both the dining room and the living room.  A breakfast nook adjacent to the kitchen has a sunny deck perfect for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails. 

Large windows throughout the home let the abundant natural light pour in.  A family room, which opens to the brick courtyard, and a guest bath finish off the main floor perfectly.  Upstairs there is a large bedroom with bath ensuite, and the gorgeous, enormous master suite.  The sleeping area has huge windows and a cathedral ceiling, both dressing and office areas, and the large walk-through closet leads to the tumbled-marble master bath -  with a jet tub, over-sized walk-in shower and fixtures of the highest quality.  Large windows let you luxuriate in the spa tub while feeling as if you are outdoors. 

Down the wide circular stairs off the living room you arrive at a sun-drenched office area.  Hand-crfated cherry Shoji sliding doors open to the large 3rd bedroom, which has a very large closet.  The 4th bedroom is equally large with enough room for a sititng area.  Both bedrooms share a full bath on the lower level. There is an immensely practical laundry room, storage and utility rooms.  

An extraordinary home perfectly located, yet a world away.
