"The Kemble" in Downtown Lenox
A real Gilded Age “cottage” from that era that defined the southern Berkshires.
This is a chance to own a fixture in Lenox, the 1881 mansion at 2 Kemble Street known as “The Kemble.” It’s a palatial Colonial Revival at 9,556 square feet right in downtown Lenox that recently underwent a $1.5 million renovation and is currently used as a luxury rental. It’s a real Gilded Age “cottage” from that era that defined the southern Berkshires, and it could be a great investment property or converted back into a residence.
Inside, thirteen bedrooms, each an ensuite bathroom, accommodate groups of 20 or more, with many different living areas for entertaining. A commercial-style kitchen supports large-scale meals, and there’s a paneled mahogany bar for extra grandeur. This property is also fully ADA-compliant, which is extremely rare for a home of this era and ensures everyone can access the building.
Though it’s downtown, it’s set on three acres, with eponymous Berkshire views and private gardens. It’s walking distance to Ventfort Hall, the excellent Boema Pizza, and maybe Tanglewood.
2 Kemble Street is listed for $4,985,000 by Stone House Properties.
