The space
Our family home for over 70 years is a 1946 Classic New England Cape Cod. It sits on close to 2 acres at the crest of a hill with beautiful mountain views and sunsets as well as an enjoyable predominant breeze. There are four bedrooms, three upstairs and one on the ground level, an enclosed porch and sunken sunroom (with fireplace) looking out over the property. You may even spot a little wildlife! The home sleeps five comfortably and can sleep six if need be. The sunroom is a favorite for snuggling up with a book, sipping a cup of tea or a glass of wine or simply visiting with friends and family. There are smart T.V.s and game boards as well as a quiet office space. There is a highspeed multiport charger for multiple devices as well as two Bose speakers equipped with blue tooth for your listening pleasure.

This home is where Mikaela Shiffrin, Olympic and World Alpine Ski Champion, finds as a favorite respite after her busy ski racing season when coming home to the Berkshires to join family. She has been known to enjoy a family day of skiing locally and can be seen making " a few good turns" far from the hectic pace of the World Cup ski racing circuit.
Hosted by Annie and Patrick, avid skiers and former ski racers, we hope you will love the Berkshires as much as we do!
