Exceptional quality, stunning detail, superior finishes and a gorgeous setting, describe this contemporary retreat. Set on 4 lovely acres with a stream meandering through, this single level, 3 bedroom home was completely reimagined with the highest quality and attention to detail. From the locally sourced walnut floors throughout, to the cherry built-ins, Jerusalem stone surround for the fireplace and the exceptional kitchen with Scavolini cabinetry, beautiful granite counters and chef's quality appliances, this light filled home is perfect for either casual living or elegant parties. The great room holds a spacious dining area, the fabulous kitchen and the large living room and has windows on three sides with multiple french doors opening to the large wrap around deck and stream beyond. The master bedroom suite takes advantage of the double sided gas fireplace and has a large en-suite bath with walk-in shower and windows that frame the woods like artwork. That detail and quality extend to the guest bath with its large soaking tub. Two guest rooms and a screened porch complete the first floor.

The quality does not stop on the main level. There is a large basement room, perfect for a gym, studio or play room. The mechanicals are of the highest quality, Amtrak Radiant heat with a Munchkin high efficiency gas boiler, 2-zone central air conditioning and a whole house, automatic generator. There are programmable smart thermostats and lighting, along with a security system and high-speed Fiber Optic broadband internet. Outside there is an oversized, heated 2 car garage and the house is tucked back nicely from the street, offering privacy year round.

The town of Mount Washington offers some of the lowest taxes in the Berkshires and is only 17 minutes to the heart of Great Barrington with its many and varied restaurants and shops. Close to the CT and NY boarders, hiking, skiing and many cultural events and happenings, make this a great location for a country retreat. The house itself is a work of art and must be seen, to be fully appreciated.
