Gusty Gables provides a year-round residence in a quiet, walk-to-town neighborhood. The park-like setting creates a memorable local for both everyday activities and milestone events, complete with established perennial beds and tremendous mature trees.
The Gables is also celebrated for its history and architectural pedigree... Renowned Architect Charles F McKim modeled ''Gusty Gables'' as the standard for excellence with its Shingle Style design in 1879. More importantly, it is also a home that possesses warmth, laughter, and up-to-date modern comforts. From the gorgeous entryway with sweeping staircase to the stately rooms, nooks and crannies (complete with secret passageways!) this fabulous estate maintains its integrity while taking a whimsical, light-hearted approach to the modern Berkshire lifestyle. Just 2.5 hours to NYC & Boston.
"...Its roofline is a complex juxtaposition of gables, dormers, bays, and overhangs. The upper stories are an explosion of shingle shapes. The towering Chimneys appear like random exclamation points on this lively structure." Excerpt taken from Houses of the Berkshires: 1870-1930, by Richard S. Jackson, Cornelia Brooke Gilder Acanthus press
