Description

At the base of ''The Hill'' in Great Barrington and just Steps to Downtown! Undeniably charming, with classic details and tasteful updates, this turn of the century home is a rare find in a very sought after neighborhood. Mere steps to downtown, yet quietly tucked away from the hum of Main Street, this 3 bedroom is ideally located for those desiring convenience and community in an authentic home. Wonderful features abound, including the original living room fireplace, sunroom with morning light pouring in, dining room with original windows and built-in cabinets, kitchen with soapstone counters and yesteryear pantry, and second floor porch overlooking a tranquil backyard.

Supplements: The land at 41 Castle St was owned by E. F. Searles circa 1900 and the home was possibly constructed in connection with the Housatonic Railroad (subsequently the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad) about 1906. The home, sits across from the site of Great Barrington's handsome and historic railroad station (not currently in use). The antique glass throughout the home, renovated bathroom with historic charm, gleaming wood floors, and crafted architectural details all evoke this property's unique history . Just a few more steps beyond the old station is all that makes Great Barrington the most vibrant town in the Berkshires in the 21st century - from the Mahaiwe Theater to excellent dining, art galleries, diverse shopping, cafes, groceries, and a weekend farmer's market. Come see this special home before it's gone!
