GREAT OPPORTUNITY! TWO-LAKES SHINGLE STYLE CONTEMPORARY RETREAT on a secluded ridge-top, up a long private drive. This home was brilliantly designed to open on approach from a handsome, demure facade to a ten room, two story striking and efficient home, flooded with light. Beautiful panoramic views over Lake Buel and the valley and mountains beyond offer sunrises and sunsets all year long from all rooms with almost 300 feet of waterfront on bucolic Steven's Lake with plenty of room for a private, water-view guest house or cabana.
The coffered great room is like a mountaintop pavilion, with huge windows and modern fireplace, and open to the gourmet kitchen and elegant dining room, all finished with Fir trim and columns with Mahogany floors. The first floor master suite feels like a top-notch spa with double bathrooms and a connecting shower and walk-in closets. The soaking bath has one of the best views in the Berkshires. A first floor guest suite has French doors opening to a large, three-season screened porch. All public rooms, including the library/den, open to a long balcony deck. The full walk-out lower level offers two more guest rooms, a full bath, mini bar, office workspace and a large family/media room with more window walls to the sun and lawn, with plenty of room for an at-home gym. The service drive and garage are also accessed from the lower level as is one of two laundry rooms.

No other property offers such a private contemporary escape within minutes of Great Barrington. Ski Butternut and Kutcher's Sports Camp are nearby, as are all of the celebrated Berkshire cultural activities. A private mountaintop retreat just a few miles from everything.
The Steven's Lake association maintains the pristine non-motorboat lake, roads and lighted tennis court, for a nominal yearly fee. There is a common dock to stroll to where one may keep Kayaks and canoes.
An extraordinary offering, lovingly cared for by the original owners.
