The home has a wide Dutch door from the front porch, leading into a generously sized foyer. To the right, you will find a sitting room with floor to ceiling built-ins; the current owner is using it as a TV room but you can easily repurpose it as a formal library. On the opposite side of the foyer is a living room with fireplace and more built-ins. The large foyer between the rooms provide you with a great flow and line of sight throughout the first floot, while giving you clearly delineated spaces and even pocket doors if you would choose to close off any rooms. The formal dining room easily fits 8-12 dinner guests and has a wonderful ambience, with the original warm oak moldings and paneling and more built-in cabinets. Directly off the dining room is a sunroom that you can enjoy for 3 of the 4 seasons. It's large enough to use as another dining space or to curl up with your favorite book. Off the sunroom is a large deck (recently updated). When sitting there, you have complete privacy due to the thoughtful plantings and trees surrounding the yard. In the mornings, you will listen to the birds while enjoying a cup of coffee, and on certain afternoons or evenings in the summer you can savor a glass of wine while listening to the concert at Lilac Park in the center of town. The current deck is a wonderful spot, but if you wish you can expand the living area of the house into this footprint. Back inside, the kitchen has been updated with loads of cabinetry and marble counter space. The tall kitchen windows provide you with amazing views each evening of the spectacular sunsets over Richmond Mountain. A swinging door between kitchen and dining adds a nice touch of functionality allowing you to close off or open up the transition between rooms. Off the kitchen is a side entry into a mudroom for storage of hiking shoes, flip flops, boots or skis..whatever you need to enjoy outdoor fun in the Berkshires. There is also a convenient first floor powder room and laundry. The second floor boasts 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, one of which has an antique soaking tub..another great place to watch the sunset! The primary bath has been created with his and her sinks, a double walk in shower and a side room for linens or a changing space. One of the bedrooms even has an inviting 3 season sunporch off of it where you will feel surrounded by sky and trees, like living in a tree house! There is an unusually large amount of storage for an historic home. On the first floor there is a walk in pantry and walk in laundry/storage room with a utility sink. On the second floor, you will have a walk in linen closet which is large enough to relocate the laundry to that level if you wish. The home is so solidly built that, after over 100 years, the wood floors are still perfectly level! The builder put so much care into this home that even the basement and garage have arched
