McKim Mead and White Stone Castle!
Thought to be the work of famed architect, Stanford White himself, this 1888 French chateau style stone castle was built with the finest materials available at the time. It literally could not be reproduced for even a fraction of this price in today's world. The craftsmanship and materials found here are simply impossible to replicate! Highlights include a Louis XIV drawing room with details in gold leaf and original painted ceiling, acoustically engineered music room with 42-ft dome ceiling, and large stone terraces over looking a dramatic cross shaped reflecting pond and gardens. The property consists of 61 lush acres with over a thousand feet of frontage on the Housatonic River. It includes a stone loggia, garden temple, carriage house, barn and tennis court. Distant mountains frame the green meadows. Located in the chic town of Great Barrington in the Berkshires, it is only a 2.5-hour drive from Boston or NYC. The property has been lovingly maintained with all its original magnificence intact. Perfect as a personal residence, a school or educational facility, a corporate retreat, or perhaps an Inn/Spa or condo/hotel.
