Alford, MABerkshire County

A RAMBLING FARMHOUSE in bucolic Alford with a chestnut-beamed barn and a Har-tru tennis court on almost four acres. The original front parlor and dining room have wide-board floors and there are four bedrooms upstairs. Three full baths, a walk-in pantry, front and back stairways and a possible first floor master bedroom make this a very livable house.

A central country kitchen with a woodstove fireplace connects the 1810 farmhouse to the newer family room and master suite wing. The wrap-around covered porch overlooks pretty grounds with stonewalls and big old trees.

Alford is a quiet town with no commerce, just over the hill from Great Barrington. Long road frontage makes this a special property with no other house in plain site. A quintessential Berkshire country house.
