Welcome to LEDGEHURST - A Timeless Berkshire Treasure with Sweeping Village Views Proudly perched on top of a hill overlooking the charming village of Monterey, LEDGEHURST is a classic c.1780 Colonial residence steeped in history and scenic beauty. Once the home of the Bidwell family—founders of Monterey—this landmark estate is ready to begin its next chapter. This historic home offers a sun-filled great room with windows on three sides, a living and dining area with fireplace, and a cozy kitchen featuring a wood stove. A bonus room or home office and a convenient half bath complete the first floor. The attached garage provides functionality but also offers potential as additional indoor/outdoor living space on overcast days. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is accompanied by three guest bedrooms and a full shared bath. The property's standout feature is a large indoor pool complex, complete with heated brick flooring, a BBQ area, bath, and sauna, perfect for year-round enjoyment and entertaining. Two expansive outbuildings offer endless possibilities: from car collections to water toy storage, workshops, or creative hobbies. Just a short 3-minute stroll to Lake Garfield's town beach, this glacial lake boasts a sandy shore and lifeguards during summer months. And with Great Barrington just 15 minutes away, you're never far from shopping, dining, entertainment, and healthcare.
