Description

Built in 1738 by Colonel John Ashley, a prominent figure in Colonial Massachusetts and an early Berkshire settler, this rare and historically significant home has been lovingly maintained over the centuries to remain true to its original character. The home is situated in the bucolic village of Ashley Falls, a lovely hamlet of Sheffield, MA, and sits prominently across from the village green. The property is comprised of one acre with lush plantings and a traditional courtyard garden. In addition to the 3 bedroom main house, there is also a converted barn guest house with on open first floor living plan and loft bedroom. Once you step inside the house you will find beautiful hardwood floors and original details from handmade hardware to 12-over-12 windows, 3 fireplaces, and exposed beams.

Supplements: The first floor offers a main floor bedroom suite in the converted wheelwright's shop, spacious entryway & sitting sitting room, parlor, dining room with bay window and country kitchen. The second floor offers two more charming bedrooms, an office nook, and storage space. Mechanical updates and systems include a well-maintained slate roof on the main house and newer asphalt roof on guest house, newer boiler (2013), central A/C on the first floor and hot-tub on the patio. Conveniently located 15 minutes from Great Barrington, MA and Salisbury, CT, 2.5 hours to NYC & Boston metro areas, and surrounded by some of the most beautiful country roads and rural vistas to be found anywhere in New England.
