This turn of the century estate situated on 300 acres with over 12,000 sq. ft. of living space was built in 1897 atop Washington Mountain in the heart of the Berkshire Hills of Western Massachusetts. Originally built by George F. Crane, as a replica of a grand estate once visited in England, the estate was used as a summer and vacation home for the Cranes’. During this time it was home to luxurious entertaining and some of the finest thoroughbred horses in Berkshire County. Eventually converted into a family vacation center by combining the estate with the adjoining summer camp, the property is currently used as a resort and conference center, hosting weddings, special events, cross-country skiing and other outdoor activities. There are many unique facilities on the property including a 4,928 sq. ft. English country manor house with a classical dining room, beautiful front porch, eight elegant guest rooms, five fireplaces, bar and commercial kitchen. In addition to the main house there are two cottages totaling over 4,000 sq. ft. with 14 rooms, each with a private bath, for a total of twenty two guest rooms. The 1,764 sq. ft. carriage barn with its original hand hewn beams, wood plank floors, massive stone fireplace, commercial bar, rest rooms and a reception lobby is used for wedding receptions, conferences, and special events. There is also a pole barn on the property for storage and a 871 sq. ft. Dutch Colonial barn conversion with a two car garage, workshop and two bedroom apartment upstairs. Lastly, this property offers a secluded campground with ten rustic cabins, swimming pool, tennis & basketball courts and picnic area. This premier location offers endless possibilities with over a mile of road frontage, only minutes to the Appalachian Trail, next door to the 16,500 acre October Mountain State Forest, and half way between Boston & NYC.
