Exceptionally Solar

This LEED-rated custom home sits on a quiet country road with painterly views over sheep pastures in Great Barrington. Built on the site of a former farmhouse and created with great thought, the residence features large windows, high ceilings, reclaimed wood floors and cabinetry, a first-floor master, guest suites, a private studio, and a second-floor covered loggia facing the view. Smart eco and conservation practices were employed, with geothermal heat, solar arrays and high R-value panelized construction. The 2.16-acre property is private yet minutes to downtown, with views of mountains beyond and grounded by ancient trees. Listed for $1.29 million by Berkshire Property Agents.
