What do you think makes this property stand out in the current market?
A house at this price point with so much space for several people is not easy to find. There are four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, large living room, kitchen, and a bonus room off the kitchen that could be an office or dining room or possibly even an extra guest room.
What was your first impression when you walked into this home?
I love some of the character of the house. For example, the banister and railing on the stairs is ornate and beautiful.
How would you describe the feel or atmosphere of this home?
The house is light and bright. It's a great mix of some class features like the stairway and updates like the kitchen and bathrooms.
What kind of buyer do you see this home being perfect for?
I can see all sorts of people in this house.
What would you say to a buyer trying to imagine their life in this space?
North Adams is such a vibrant and welcoming community. You can walk to MCLA or downtown. Williams College and Mass MoCA are close. The hospital is nearby, and the house would be great for doctors or nurses. There are a lot of opportunities in the area.
Are there any standout design features or recent renovations?
The entire house was renovated about two years ago. The owners removed all knob & tube wiring, installed a new boiler, added a new laundry setup on the second floor, and redid the third floor into a great primary suite, with private bathroom. The kitchen and all three bathrooms are also new.
