Wake up to sweeping western views of the Berkshires from a sun-filled home set on 13 landscaped acres, bordered by stone walls and state forest. Guests keep coming back for the setting as much as the house: a private fishing pond, a historic apple orchard, wild blueberry bushes, and a wildflower meadow that make this feel less like a rental and more like your own mountain estate.
Freshly renovated with all-new bathrooms, hardwood floors, and stylish furnishings throughout, the home sleeps 8 across four bedrooms — so it works equally well for a family reunion or a group getaway. The 250 sq. ft. private deck is where everyone ends up: morning coffee, long dinners, sunset watching, and stargazing over the meadow.
Downstairs features two bedrooms (one queen and one fullsize bed) a fully equipped kitchen with new appliances opens to a spacious dining area and a cozy living room with a working fireplace (instant-on propane insert), Bose sound system, and a flat-screen with streaming — plus a full bathroom. . Upstairs offers two more bedrooms (one king and two twin beds) sharing a full bath with a walk-in shower, each with big windows framing the mountains beyond.
Bring the dog — this home is pet-friendly. Explore the quiet town's historic church, river swimming holes, waterfalls, and hiking trails, or head out for Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival and Tanglewood, both just a scenic drive away.

About the host
Hosted by Warren Cook
Current owners Warren and Elizabeth Cook inherited the property from Warren's father. Born in 1910, William Cook grew up in Middlefield witnessing the introduction of the car, the telephone and electricity. The family's 1700's farm house still stands across the street. After a forty year career at IBM, William Cook built the current house in 1972 on land that had been the apple orchard of the ancestral farm. He lived there until his death at 97. Upon inheriting the property, Elizabeth and Warren initiated major renovations to take advantage to the inherent beauty of the house and its mountainside location. Elizabeth grew up near Pittsburgh, PA and has a background in fashion merchandizing including executive positions at Bergdorf Goodman, Barney's New York, and Theory. Warren grew up in Long Island, NY and has worked in book publishing, movies, and web commerce. Together they currently own a home design store in Westchester, NY.
