This cozy farmhouse is the perfect home for a family with a beautiful back and front yard.  The front yard is mostly fenced.  There are young peach, apple and plum trees on the north in the spacious side yard with a perennial flower garden toward the front and an ample vegetable garden plot with many berry bushes.  On the south side of the driveway is a lovely small field with mature landscaping toward the front. This maybe could be divided off and sold as a side lot by the new owner if surveyed.  The back of the property is bordered by the Housatonic rail trail and lined with a smattering of trees, berries and forsythia bushes.   Hart Pond is diagonally across the street down Rachel's Way.

After walking by the separate studio room door you reach the kitchen front porch door.  Pass through the kitchen with washer/dryer in the back, by the full bathroom and past the stairs to reach the comfortable dining room with an enclosed 3 season front porch that enjoys beautiful sunsets.  At the back of the dining room is a bedroom and interior access to the basement.  The living room is adjacent to the dining room and boasts a woodstove hook-up.  There is a walk in closet or desk space at the end of the living room.  Upstairs are three bedrooms, a linen closet and a small passageway connecting the living space to the finishable storage area above the kitchen.  

Bike or walk on the rail trail into downtown Housatonic in about 5 minutes.  Drive to Lenox in about 20 minutes and to downtown Great Barrington in about 10 minutes.  Boston and New York are both about 2 hours by car.
