Take a look at this unbelievably lavish French-inspired Berkshire estate set on about 45 sweeping acres of rolling meadow, ponds, and woodland. 209 Blue Hill Road in Great Barrington sits along one of the region’s most scenic country roads, where panoramic mountain views, sheltered privacy, and direct borders with protected state forest create an opulent sanctuary that feels removed from the everyday life, and reality.

The centerpiece of the estate is a newly constructed French Colonial–style manor designed with commanding proportions, including soaring 19-foot ceilings that prove that, for a select few, the Gilded Age has returned. The residence unfolds across approximately 13,175 square feet with six bedrooms and seven baths and abundant natural light from windows that frame views of the landscape.

Interior details balance classic presence with modern systems: geothermal heating and cooling, central air, and a layout that accommodates both sizable gatherings and everyday living. Fireplaces, grandiose room dimensions, and multiple living areas give the house a sense of whimsical vanity.

Outdoors, the property’s scale makes itself known. Rolling fields transition into woodlands and peaceful water features fed by a gently flowing brook. Mature trees and protected borders create a private backdrop for outdoor pursuits, seasonal activities, or simply soaking in sun-washed views while eating cake on terrace or patio. 

209 Blue Hill Road, Great Barrington is listed for $7,250,000, offered by Maureen White Kirkby at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Blake, REALTORS.
