Ashfield, Massachusetts

Close by a charming rural village, a 104-acre estate surrounded by 438 acres of protected land offers the consummate country haven. The 10,747sf residence has been meticulously restored and revamped with attention to historic detail and the highest quality workmanship and materials: it exemplifies the best of three centuries: early 19th-century Federal architecture, the 1920s country estate style, and the structure and systems of the 21st century. Work included restoration of original window sash, 11 fireplaces and 12 chimneys, along with new porches, new and restored outbuildings, high speed internet and security, new heating, cooling, plumbing, etc. Providing generous spaces for entertaining, cozy ones for quiet times, and others for hobbies and pastimes, the property encompasses a large three-story barn, stone cottage, two-story carriage house, and garage, all with radiant heat for 6,000sf of usable space. At one with nature and with glorious easterly views, the buildings merge with their surroundings, an inspired marriage of architecture and setting, a place meant for friends and family to gather and enjoy, as they have across the generations.
