1880 updated colonel walk to center of Lenox

Description from the owner

ONLY ONE WEEK LEFT SUMMER 2013- July 27-August 3--Located in Lenox, just a block outside of the town center on a quiet dead-end street. Recently restored Colonial home offers all new, top of the line appliances (Thermador stove, Flos lighting, Kitchen Aide mixer, All-clad pots/pans, baking pans, Vietri tableware, but no microwave, maple floors, marble counter tops, updated bathrooms and professionally decorated living spaces. Living room, separate dining room, as well as den/TV room. (basic cable). Sleeps six comfortably with extra pull-out couch in den for guests.

(Note: The house is 2800 sq ft. and can sleep 8-9 people in the 3 bedro...oms and one den. However, we prefer to limit that number to no more than 6.)

St. Anns Ave is a quiet dead end street which has not changed much in the past 100 years. In our full renovation in 2003, we tried to maintain the character of our old house by leaving all the long plank hardwood floors and the old wooden windows and repaired rather than replaced plaster walls and vintage plumbing fixtures. We selected antique sconces and whenever possible the furnishing are in keeping with the period when the house was built. However, comfort is key; you'll love to curl up on the new down stuffed living room couch or doze on the Shifman mattress.

Relax and enjoy the grill or a cool drink on the wrap around porch and in our perennial garden. Although the center Lenox is a three minutes walk. There you will find fine dining, shops, playgrounds, tennis-courts, spa services and more.

Tanglewood is less than five minutes by car, Shakespeare and Company, a mile down the road. Hiking trails are a short walk up the hill and Laurel lake two miles away. Get into the rhythm of a peaceful country life never too far from all Berkshire attractions and the amenities Lenox provides.Read more
