History buffs: This 1700s Dutch farmhouse in Great Barrington was originally used for wagon manufacturing.

Modernizations and additions have expanded this property into a beautiful, 3,284-square-foot home. A creamy-toned exterior sports a classic portico front and center.

Inside, beamed ceilings and Colonial colors pay homage to the home’s origins.

The living room is bright and cozy.

An adjoining library/music room has French doors to a sunporch.

Access to this terra-cotta-tiled, sun-drenched space is also available from the living room.

A dramatic soapstone fireplace has nooks for firewood next to the oversized firebox.

A modern gas range backs up against an ancient brick wall in the kitchen, which also has a wide farmhouse sink and a rustic, freestanding wooden island.

The dining room has a bright bay window amid sunny yellow walls.

The house has four bedrooms within its rambling space. The hardwood flooring here just glows.

Twin beds each have their own window under a curved ceiling in this bedroom.

Built-in linen shelves and tidy beadboard wainscoting highlight this bathroom, which has a glass-doored shower stall and a wall-mounted, two-tap sink.

A blue bedroom with slick, wide-plank floors tucks into this peaked, top-floor space.

Plaster walls shine with glossy paint in this large bedroom.

A modern, glassed shower stall commands a corner of this bath.

The original carriage barn is attached to the house and has a laundry room within its rustic, wooden walls.

Sliding stable doors still exist, separating rooms and hallways here.

Looks like this room could be a guest room.

And there’s plenty of extra space upstairs, too.

All of this exists on a one-acre lot…

…that includes a heated, inground Gunite pool.

The home’s surrounded by farmland, yet it’s just about two and a half miles from downtown Great Barrington (and great food choices at Guido’s Fresh Marketplace).
