Since the late nineteenth century, this property has been the vacation estate for some of America’s most prominent families.
Set on more than thirty acres in the heart of Lenox in the Berkshires, this gilded-age mansion has been carefully restored and is available for exclusive use on a weekly basis as a private luxury, rental home. |

The estate’s six elegant bedrooms are beautifully appointed with antique furniture. Four have original fireplaces. Beds feature Frette linens over hand-crafted, custom made mattresses, which invite the most restful country sleep.

The bathrooms include Molton Brown bath amenities. The north wing can accommodate children or other members of your traveling party provided they are comfortable staying in more modest quarters. |
