About this property
Black Bear Brook: Between Mt. Snow and Berkshire East. Minutes to lakes/hiking.
Bring the whole family (or two) to this historic 1865 home with lots of room for fun. This 5 bedroom antique New England home is situated between Lake Whitingham and Lake Sadawga. 11 minutes from Wilmington, 20 minutes from Mt Snow or Berkshire East. You can boat, ski, fish, swim or hike. It's the perfect house for families to vacation with a game room on the third floor including ping pong and fuse ball.
The house sleeps 10 comfortably with a pull out couch in the downstairs living room for up to 12. The kitchen has all amenities (coffee maker, slow cooker, blender, etc), a live edge wood countertop, washer and dryer. It looks out over the living room so no one has to be left out while they cook. That open space leads into a dining room overlooking the yard where you can watch the local wildlife and listen to the brook flow by. A separate space on the first floor is a media room so you can enjoy a movie or a game. A half bath rounds off the first floor. The second floor has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms including two showers and a soaker tub. The third floor is entirely a game room with ping pong, fuse ball, basketball and more. The backyard has a dining area, backyard games and a firepit. The brook runs at the back of the property and you can dip your toes on those hot days. There is plenty of space for a family or two to enjoy a wonderful time in the Green Mountains skiing, hiking, swimming, exploring one of the many shires or attending one of the many local festivals year round.
