Two-Story Great Barrington Log Home: $649K

  |  December 31, 2024

If your crew needs room for a crowd, this two-story Great Barrington log home can’t be beat.

The sweeping, covered, second-story terrace satisfies the symmetry lover in us. Imagine sitting in sheltered bliss while the sun (or rain) beats down outside.

The rustic wood floor and railings echo the log siding.

Inside, you’ll encounter lots of wood, too. But the kitchen provides a respite, except for the cabinetry. An aproned farmhouse sink drapes across one side of the L-shaped workspace. The floor is multi-toned ceramic tile, and a dining area is across from the breakfast bar.

This image shows off the double-oven range, white upper cabinets, and big, side-by-side fridge. Wood-clad glass doors open to the porch.

The living room is open to the kitchen.

A fieldstone, woodburning fireplace is the best place to gather on a cold night. Skylights send daylight into the room.

The house has four bedrooms. In this one, wall-to-wall blue carpeting rests the eyes from an abundance of wooden walls and ceiling.

A sitting area has hardwood flooring.

The ensuite bathroom’s got a dual-sink vanity across from a tub/shower.

This bedroom has beige carpeting…

…a walk-in closet…

…and an ensuite bath.

Head down the stairs, which encourage inspiration…

…to a lower-level rec room replete with a pool table.

A family-room area has a woodstove.

Each of the two bedrooms down here have access to the outside. This one has knotty-pine flooring.

So does this one, along with a French door.

The lower-level porch has a hot tub that’s protected from the elements.

All of this sits on 2.5 acres close to downtown Great Barrington; it’s just a half-mile, for example, to a weekly tasting at Domaney’s Liquors and Fine Wines.
