Property Description
Cedar shingles and a deep front porch welcome you at the front of the house. Inside, wide plank oak and pine floors run through the principal rooms, and the living room is warmed by a wood burning fireplace. The fully renovated kitchen reflects years of considered planning. Olive-toned cabinetry connects the room to the expansive green views outside. Outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances including an AGA 36-inch induction range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Asko dishwasher, it was designed for serious cooking and casual entertaining in equal measure. Quartz countertops and island, a farmhouse sink with copper fittings, vintage lighting and a bespoke pantry complete the space. A tiled mudroom, a reading area overlooking the garden, and a main floor guest bedroom with views of the flower garden round out the floor. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated full bath with soaking tub, antique hardware, and a vintage sink occupy the upper floor, with storage tucked into the eaves and the primary bedroom offering a large closet and space for a desk. A finished basement adds further flexible space, and a new metal roof was installed in 2022.
The grounds, shaped by landscape architect Jamie Purinton with an emphasis on native plantings and low-maintenance design, are a garden of genuine depth and beauty. Established perennial flowerbeds of iris, peonies, and reblooming lilacs, hydrangeas, and viburnums line the western hedgerow, providing privacy and a constantly shifting color palette across the seasons. A peach orchard with seven trees, two apple trees including a 70-year-old grafted specimen bearing both red and green fruit, and two crabapple trees occupy the eastern slope, with spring blooms that stop you in your tracks. A fenced and gated vegetable garden with terraced raised beds, sits in full sun. The garden art studio, a bespoke structure designed with the spirit of Australian beach boxes, opens at the rear to panoramic views of the Berkshire Mountain range. An outdoor dining terrace with its own wood-burning stove and stone walls, where the current owners have perfected the art of cooking over an open flame, completes the outdoor picture. An outdoor shower and invisible fence for pets add further practicality.
The attached one-car garage offers sheltered parking with direct interior access, and the electrical system has been fully upgraded to 240V with a new panel and capacity for both a generator and electric vehicle charging. The property includes ample space to add a pool. Catamount, Bash Bish Falls, and the cultural destinations of the Berkshires are close at hand. Bluebirds return to the property each year, sunrises and sunsets arrive in equal splendor, and the hay fields surrounding the house bring to mind a Wyeth painting. Hedgerow Cottage is a place of birdsong, moonshadow, and open flame dinners under the stars. It is ready for its next steward.
