Private Estate, Heated YEARROUND Outdoor Pool

Summary:
Awaiting your next trip in our former horse farm turned luxury vacation rental, recently upgraded and re-furnished.

There is an outdoor container pool that can be set as high as 104, which means you can use it year round as a pool or a hot tub!

Discerning guests will be impressed with the estate's grounds, including a brook that runs through the property and an abundance of wildlife. Known to many locals as the most beautiful property in the area.

The Space:
Two living rooms, a dining room, a screened-in porch, multiple Goshen-stone patios, and many beautiful acres—a truly memorable property with endless lovely nooks and crannies.

Now with a brand-new 8x20 pool, with endless jets, Goshen-stone surround, and beautiful views of the entire farm. This container pool can be used as a pool or a hot tub year round! The sunrise and sunset play over wide-open fields that cascade to the hundred-acre forest of maple, oak, birch, and pine trees below.

Large 5-bedroom house and 50 surrounding acres of field and woods.

Decorated in antique English farmhouse library style, the high end chef’s kitchen comes with Miele appliances, induction stove, small bakers oven and oversized Subzero refrigerator. Impress your guests with home-cooked meals, or ask us about recommendations on a guest chef for the night. Owned by art collectors, there is gorgeous art and antiques throughout the house.

There is room for 6-8 in the kitchen table as well as seating for 12-14 in the dining room. Gorgeous back patio under cantilevered garden beds with grill out the French doors from the dining room; huge front patio with decorator’s 15-piece patio furniture set
in the front. Truly this house was made for dinner parties!

There is both a living room and den on the first floor. The den has smart TV for streaming your devices. High-speed Wifi.

Sleeping:
Multiple spaces give you plenty of space to spread out and enjoy peaceful retreats each night:
-Primary bedroom on the first floor has a king size bed. En-suite master bathroom has a freestanding clawfoot tub and separate STEAM SHOWER.
-Second bedroom on the first floor combines sleeping space with office space; there are built-in shelves and a desk, as well as a full bathroom directly across the hall. The office bedroom has a queen size bed.
-Three bedrooms on the 2nd floor: one with two queen-size beds, the second with a queen-size bed and a sleeper couch, the third with one queen-size bed.

In-law apartment:
2 bedrooms with queen size beds

Couches in both living rooms are large enough for very comfortable sleeping as well. A folding cot in the master bedroom closet is available to add to any space.

Bathrooms:
-Four full and one half bath: two full bathrooms and one half-bath on the first level, one full on the second level. I bathroom in the in-law suite.

Outdoors:
Brand-new, stunningly landscaped 8x20 pool. Goshen-stone patio surround with a stone wall and quaint, safe farm-house fence. Pool serviced 2x week; Endless Swim Jets allow for amazing exercise as well as fun for the family.
There is a brook that goes through the property, with two bridges. There is abundant wildlife--frogs, birds, turtles, fish, deer, chipmunks, and many more species. There is a pond, visible from a lovely screened-in porch, patio, and pool. There is a peace sign mowed into the rolling hill above the pond, which has been maintained by many generations of owners. There is beautiful landscaping around the house, including many special spots to sit or play.

Family Vacation
The country setting provided a quiet retreat. The home is well equipped: plenty of beds, multiple gathering places, pool with towels (although it was pretty cold until the pool guy came and provided help). The outdoor grill provides additional cooking space. The home is within easy driving to many places of interest. We had a nice week at this home.

Beautiful property for an amazing weekend stay
The pictures simply do not do this place justice, it’s an incredible home. Our friend group was cozy all weekend! We loved the hot tub/pool, the really interesting artwork, the driving range mat and basketball hoop. Plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. The in law apartment (which we didn’t use as sadly part of our group was unable to join us) is attached to the main home and is so cute. We had a small issue upon arrival and the hosts were immediately responsive with us troubleshooting and ultimately helped solve our issue. We didn’t want to go home and already are considering another visit. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Perfect Winter Adventure
We had the best time with our family at this property. It was secluded, but close to plenty of great things for us to do which made it the perfect winter adventure for our Christmas vacation. The host was very responsive and helped us out when some issues came up.

Great house for group getaway!
We had 5 couples stay this weekend for a getaway weekend in the Berkshire's. The place was perfect! Kitchen was stocked with anything we needed while cooking, plenty of places to gather or get some alone time, and the pool was awesome! We would definitely stay there again in the future.

A great family retreat
We had a wonderful stay. The house is very roomy with really interesting pieces of art in it.. the only bad thing was we were not able to connect to the pool until Sunday morning basically when everyone was leaving. It would be my recommendation to have a device in the house that will run the pool. We tried several different cell phones in several different apps. It turned out to be the original access code that was given to us was wrong.. The manager finally came up with the right access code. So three of us that stay till Monday actually got to enjoy the pool., Once it was working, it was wonderful.

Great house for weekend retreat
House had everything a big group would need, including multiple indoor and outdoor spaces to spread out. Large property felt very secluded-most of our group didn’t leave all weekend.

Picturesque Perfection
My family, ages 1-91, had a Hallmark perfect Christmas weekend. With 12 people everyone had enough space throughout the home but we were also comfortable gathering together in the kitchen, dining room and living areas. We greatly appreciated all of the wonderfully curated art “moments” throughout the home which were interesting and still inviting. The heated pool was fabulous, especially in the snow! We were very comfortable with our children in the home. Beds were wonderful and towels and linens were of high quality. The kitchen oven is small but we were able to cook a full Christmas roast between the kitchen oven and in-law oven. Hosts were very communicative. We are so grateful for this beautiful and inviting retreat and hope to book it again in the future!

Luxury in the Berkshires
Overall our group was both pleased and impressed with the rental. The house easily accommodated our group, consisting of six adults and a pet. The location was splendid, close to restaurants in nearby Great Barrington and hiking trails in the Berkshires. The house fronts a cul-de-sac, Shun Toll Road, that allows for further leisurely walks in the countryside as well as the nearest country store selling the paper and basic provisions. The only disappointment, which wasn't serious, was that oven or micro-wave had been cleaned to the degree that its settings were illegible. Other than this, the house was in excellent condition, and any issues were promptly addressed by the host. Definitely would consider renting this house again.
