Enchanting Country House on 18 acres, Sunset Views, <15 minutes from Tanglewood | House in West Stockbridge

3 Bedroom House in West Stockbridge
A Writer’s Haven!!!
360-degree scenic PRIVACY. YET… just 1/2 mile off the Mass Pike and 15 minutes from Tanglewood, Lenox & Stockbridge! DOG FRIENDLY! Large fenced-in dog pen.
As you enter the long, private, tree-lined drive, you'll find yourself enveloped in magically scenic, peaceful and lush surroundings.
Once inside, the amazing original wood-beam ceiling and massive picture windows with gorgeous views will captivate you. The house is updated enough with all necessary comforts, but we've preserved the country charm of this farmhouse (built in 1875) in every way possible. Examples include exposed post & beam corners, salvaged hardwood floors, the oversized clawfoot bathtub and a 16-gauge copper farmhouse sink in the kitchen. The property is a peaceful, private, serene and magical place that you'll have all to yourself, yet you'll be just 10-15 minutes from the best attractions in the area and less than 1 minute from the Mass Pike!
CALLING ALL TRAINSPOTTERS AND RAILFANS! One of the unique features of the property is its proximity to a railroad track that is used by both Amtrak as well as cargo trains. The track is adjacent to the southern border of the property, and this affords you a very cool view of the various types of trains that go by.
Most find the trains' sounds a unique, cool part of the experience here. And many find the passing train sounds soothing. Most say that after a couple of days they no longer notice trains passing by.
Sometimes there are only 1 or 2 trains in a 24 hour period. Sometimes there are as many as 15 in a 24 hour period.
The trains do honk their horns as they're approaching, because the house is near a RR crossing. Some find the horn to be loud.
For those who prefer not to hear them at night (they do occasionally run in the evening), ear plugs are provided for each guest. However, most say that after a day or two here, they don't notice the train horn much.
The house has high speed internet / wifi and a television with Roku (you'll log into your own Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, etc. accounts). There are portable air conditioner units in the two larger bedrooms (primarily for sleeping...not 24/7 use). And a cooling fan is available for the smaller guest bedroom.
A Culligan water softener / filtration system services the entire house, the source of which is fresh well water.
FULL STANDBY POWER GENERATOR! Should a storm cause the house to lose power, the 14Kw stand-by power generator will kick on automatically, providing enough power for the important things (water, heat, fridge, lights in most spaces, microwave ((but not the stove/range)), wi-fi, tv, etc.) When power resumes, the generator will switch back to the regular power source automatically.
This property is very, very special. And it's very private, yet super close to Tanglewood, Kripalu, Stockbridge, Lenox, etc.
You can have a baseball game out on the lawn, go Forest Bathing in our 5 acres of untouched woods, catch glimpses of the diverse wildlife on and around the property, and you can park numerous vehicles on the driveway -- you'll have so much scenic acreage to use as you please. It's like an enchanting retreat, yet it's very close to most of the cultural and recreational attractions that make the Berkshires so very special. ONE DOG PER STAY IS WELCOME: Large fenced-in dog pen! (kindly have nails trimmed before arrival)
