127 Mount Rd, Cummington, MA 01026

Come see this country home with plenty of room for you and your horses, easily accessible to Route 9, Northampton and the Berkshires. Includes a 3BR post-and-beam house and a six-stall horse barn, both newer, and a just-renovated antique guest cottage, all set on 38 private acres, backing onto state forest. Gorgeous hardwood and pine floors, a fieldstone hearth with wood stove insert, and wrap-around porch with partial screening, give the main house both charm and convenience. Kitchen has gas stove, large butcher block island and tons of cabinet space, with separate pantry, half-bath and washer/dryer a few steps away. Master bedroom has catherdral ceilings, picture windows, and walk-in closet. Two cozy guest bedrooms, two full second-floor baths, a large tiled front entryway, and a spiral staircase up to a third floor loft complete the picture. The house is freshly painted and has a brand-new roof. Your horses will love the barn, with its six roomy stalls and acre of fenced paddock and pasture. The building has electricity, its own well, and a drive through center aisle. It has a long-lasting metal roof, and is freshly painted. The cottage was constructed in the 1930s as a summer residence, and has just been lovingly renovated and restored, with a new fir floor, and fresh coats of paint both inside and out. The mullioned windows lend the building character and let in the cool breeze in the summertime, and the wood stove set in a fieldstone hearth takes the chill out of the air on autumn days. The house is set back several hundred feet from a dirt road in a rural community, yet is just five minutes to Route 9 and the Old Creamery, half an hour to Northampton, and 45 minutes to Tanglewood and other Berkshires attractions. The property is mostly wooded and is bordered by thousands of acres of state forest. The grounds feature double-wide stone walls and several small fields and meadows, connected by stone staircases. There is a manageable amount of yard space around the house awaiting your gardening or landscaping touch. For more information, please contact Michael at 413-358-6919 or alterman@speakeasy.net.
