Zen-Inspired Architectural Contemporary

Experience a rare Zen-inspired retreat in the heart of the Berkshires, brilliantly designed to exist in harmony with its natural surroundings. Set on nearly 120 acres of protected land with striking rock outcroppings, sweeping mountain views, and frontage along the Williams River, this architecturally significant contemporary offers a true sense of privacy, tranquility, and escape — all just minutes from downtown Great Barrington. Designed by renowned architect Steven Haas and constructed of steel, glass, concrete, and wood, the main residence is defined by dramatic volumes and German Sorpetaler door and window systems that dissolve the boundary between indoors and out.

Expansive IPE hardwood decks overlook a 25-meter heated saltwater lap pool, outdoor kitchen, hot tub, stone fire pit, and pool cabana with full bath. The chef’s kitchen with wood-burning fireplace anchors the home and connects seamlessly to the outdoor entertaining areas. The main living room offers a second fireplace, bar area, and immersive views of nature. A covered courtyard ties the spaces together, enhancing the home’s serene, contemplative design. The primary wing is a private sanctuary with spa bath, dressing room, lounge, and private decks overlooking the Berkshire Mountains. The lower level adds a billiards room and wet bar.

A separate guest house offers two bedrooms, open kitchenette, and a rooftop deck with panoramic views. A beautifully finished 3,000 sq ft recreation barn with full kitchen, dining area, full bath, and open loft provides remarkable versatility for entertaining or creative pursuits. Eight miles of private hiking and biking trails wind through the property to the Williams River — completing an extraordinary compound that is sophisticated, serene, and moments from the dining, shopping, and culture of Great Barrington.
