Ah, Alford: A beautiful town of rolling hills that’s somewhat infamous for being one of the Berkshires’ wealthiest towns. This home at 293 East Road, set on 30+ acres, is a bit of an opportunity property, with lots of room for finishing, but it offers a chance to be in a beautiful area with the county’s lowest property taxes.
Known as BarKing Cow Farm, the property includes a recently renovated guest cottage with 1 bedroom and 2 bathrooms, with vaulted ceilings, soapstone counters, a butcher block island, stainless appliances, and beautiful wood floors.
The main timber frame building, with 3,826 square feet of space, is ready for someone's final vision, but it has beautiful bones. (With its shingles and stonework outside, you’d think this house was older, but it was actually built in 1981.) Outside, there’s a small pond, a brook out front, hiking trails, and fruit trees.
293 East Road is listed for $1,575,000 by William Morrow at William Pitt Sotheby’s - GT Barrington.
