Property Description
These are the Berkshire views you’ve been dreaming of. Set on 1.55 acres in Richmond, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home looks west across preserved meadowland to the lower Taconic Mountains, with broad sky and changing light in nearly every season. Spring brings wildflowers and returning birds, summer fills the fields with native plants and pollinators, autumn moves across the ridgeline in color, and winter turns the meadow white. Walk the fields, cross-country ski after fresh snow, watch wildlife, or simply take in the view from the deck.Inside, the 2,064-square-foot home keeps drawing your eye back out. The renovated 2023 kitchen features KraftMaid cabinetry, Brazilian silver soapstone counters, open shelving, updated appliances, and a generous island. Sliding doors lead directly to the deck, where cable railings keep the western views uninterrupted. The large living room adds another sweep of meadow and mountain through broad windows, with hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace bringing warmth when the weather turns.The property has been thoughtfully tended for native plants, pollinators, birds, and wildlife. A kestrel nesting box in the meadow, monitored through the Berkshire Bird Observatory, feels right at home here.Considerable recent investment makes year-round Berkshire living easier, with a newer roof, owned solar, heat pumps, hybrid heat-pump/electric water heater, whole-house Generac generator, Aquasana water filtration, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, EV-ready wiring, and an attached two-car garage.Part of Osceola Notch, the property enjoys shared preserved common land and a community tennis court, with association stewardship helping maintain the open character of the landscape. Lenox, West Stockbridge, Tanglewood, and the cultural life of the Berkshires are all close at hand. A beautifully updated Richmond home, preserved open land, and sweeping Berkshire mountain views become part of everyday life here.
