Overview
Description
This 3-4 bedroom spacious cottage is situated on a tidy parcel of land in the coveted Yale Hill neighborhood of Stockbridge. This unique antique property has been recently updated with careful intention to maintain the original character and structure of the house, while bringing it up to speed for year round living in the 21st century. The house was designed at the turn of the century by the prominent Berkshire architect Joseph McArthur Vance as a seasonal cottage for La Chaumiere, the abutting property up the hill.
