Friday Front Porch Feature: A Colonial in South Pittsfield
By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Are you looking for a classic New England Colonial in the city? Then this is the home for you.
Our Friday Front Porch is a weekly feature spotlighting attractive homes for sale in Berkshire County. This week, we are showcasing 66 Emerson Ave.
This three-bedroom, one-bathroom home was built in 1924 and has 1,540 square feet with 0.15 acres.
The house features the original hardwood floors with a tiled kitchen that has granite countertops, and a heated sunroom.
The house also has a detached one-car garage and was recently updated with electrical, windows, and kitchen, leaving less worry for the new owners.
It is currently on the market for $315,000 but is pending.
We spoke with Carrie Lobovits Wright with William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty.
What do you think makes this house stand out in the current market?
It offers an incredibly spacious, open yet cozy layout with a perfect blend of functional living and charm. Having a four-season sunroom is such a wonderful feature; combined with the updated kitchen, which includes an absolutely adorable pantry with glass cabinets and a separate dining area, this home offers incredible value at this price point. It's truly a standout!
What would you say to a buyer trying to imagine their life in this space?
Imagine hosting delightful dinners in the charming dining room, preparing meals in the roomy kitchen, and unwinding at the end of the day in the lovely sunroom or the warm, inviting living room. Thoughtfully crafted to make everyday living a joy, it's also perfect for entertaining friends and family.
