In the heart of Massachusetts’ Berkshires cultural area, with music, theater, dance, museums, and historic homes, B-flat Woods is three miles from Tanglewood, summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and a short drive from Jacobs' Pillow, a rustic summer dance festival theater. B-flat Woods is located three miles from Stockbridge and four miles from Lenox, two lovely villages with fine dining, shops, and art galleries.
This Non-Smoking house is on the shore of Stockbridge Bowl (a.k.a. Lake Mahkeenac), with lake access for swimming and canoeing. A sturdy fiberglass canoe is here for your use. More than ten acres of peaceful woods, fields, and lakefront await you for hiking, swimming, fishing, canoeing, or snowshoeing.
The house has 2400 square feet of shaded, well-kept, peaceful living space that sleeps up to eight. A private Master Suite with fireplace, dressing area, spacious closets, TV, CD/radio, full bath, and a lovely view of the woods is on the first floor, off the living room.
A cathedral-ceilinged open living area with a large, cozy fireplace, a great stereo, and TV with DVD, VCR, and cable leads to a dining area that can accommodate up to twelve around a solid wood table with comfortable padded chairs. Off the living area is a well-stocked library, with books ranging from masterpieces to mystery to music. Also off the living area is a screened-in porch with chaise lounge, chairs, lamp, and a table.
Next to the dining area is a fully-equipped kitchen with all utensils, dishes, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, and even a large selection of spices and herbs. The kitchen looks out on a flowered parking circle where the driveway ends in a carport that adjoins the side entrance to the house. Off the kitchen is a laundry room with a modern washer and dryer, detergent and other supplies for your use.
A dramatic, enclosed spiral staircase leads to the second floor that has two guest rooms, one with twin beds, the other with a double bed and a trundle bed. A full bathroom is located between the two bedrooms. A balcony that overlooks the large living space is furnished as a sitting area, well-stocked with cards and other games.
