| Remarks |
|
Stunning eclectic contemporary saltbox built into a hill and sited on secluded fourteen-plus country acres with protected pastoral sunset view. Quiet setting borders Massachusetts, just minutes to the Berkshires, Tanglewood, Chatham, Hudson (Amtrak) and Metro North's Wassaic commuter stop. Easy day trip to Williamstown and Mass MOCA area.
Originally built as a working artists' studio with minimal living accommodations, the building has been developed into a comfortable year round living space while retaining a full level of working studios. A classically sited north clerestory fills the larger studio with evenly diffused light throughout the day. The studio is equipped with daylight balanced 5000 degree Kelvin florescent lighting for evening painting. The second studio is light filled by six skylights and oversized windows overlooking the pasture.
This exceptional home boasts open plan living with custom Italian tile floors, quality craftsmanship, third floor master suite, 2-plus bedrooms, 2 full baths, bright and sunny kitchen area, updated appliances, open to living area. Partially finished walk-in studios would be suitable for more living space for non-artists interested in converting use. Main living floor and studio floors with 15-ft-plus ceilings. Attached 16x20 ft storage room with separate entrance. Raised bed garden and garden shed. |
