59 Whites Hl Rd Egremont, MA 01230

At the peak of a ridge, part of an exclusive enclave of seven luxury homes, this rare offering comprises 18 secluded acres, breathtaking views, and a set renderings (see photos) and plans evoking the best in modernist design. Part of a visionary project developed by veteran AD100 Architect Steven Haas, the property is encompassed by 220 acres of private, protected, natural beauty, which includes a greensward providing stunning views and extensive recreational amenities for hiking and cross-country skiing. The elegant, eminently livable design for the residence, which Haas created for aesthetically discerning clients, comprises three-four bedrooms, multiple spaces for entertaining and relaxing, and a separate studio pavilion for guests, yoga, or creative pursuits. Access to the site is at the pinnacle of White's Hill Road, where you enter a private lane and cross a sturdy stone bridge spanning a woodland stream and giving a glimpse of the historic abutments of an earlier structure. As you drive further between stone walls and through a small woods to the cleared house site, the sightline opens, affording the full impact and pleasure of the enclave's generous, groomed greenway and long views of the undulating Berkshire foothills to the south and east. With 11.2 acres in low-tax Egremont and 6.8 acres in Alford, the 59 Whites Hill Road property borders New York State, and is convenient to all of the lifestyle assets for which the Berkshires and Hudson Valley are so well loved. It also provides easy access to the Taconic Parkway and Amtrak train at Hudson for forays into New York City, to local airfields in Great Barrington and Pittsfield, and to international airports in Albany and Hartford.
