You and Your Crew Renewed Our Faith In Contractors

Wow, we still can't stop eyeballing our new kitchen! We feel like we won the lottery! Your Team are top-notch skillspeople. Ashley, who took our fantasy kitchen...and designed one to match. Aaron and Ray were excellent teammates who stayed on task, while also being very friendly. We have, like many people, been burned in the past by contractors. You and your crew renewed our faith in contractors. You were honest with your scheduling. Your team was on our job until completion. It was started and finished in the time we expected it to be done. Renovating a house can be a very challenging life experience...your team made this an excellent experience, from soup to nuts. Warm regards, Laura and Roger T. Pittsfield

NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS: A NEW YOU OR A BETTER YOU?

MONTY

of the Tri-State Berkshires

www.petpartnersberkshires.org

This handsome gent with the serious face is Monty! Don’t let the “look” fool you though—he’s one happy boy who thoroughly enjoys meeting new people. Monty is a 2-year-old American pit bull mix with the sweetest personality. He would love to be a friend to everyone he meets. Monty enjoys going for long walks and romping about the pen to burn off energy. So if you’re the active type, he may be the dog for you. Monty is diligently working on his leash manners, as he is a bit strong and tends to forget there is a person attached to him. So, he’ll need an owner willing to further his educational needs by working with him on a daily basis. He’s just an excitable boy who enjoys seeing and sniffing the world around him. If you’re looking for a best friend who will play, hike and enjoy the active side of life, then he’s definitely the right choice for you! Interested in learning more about Monty? Please reach out to the Berkshire Humane Society kennel staff.

30 Great Barrington Road Master builder with his wife’s design restored and built this new home which welcomes you with a wide opulent wrap-around porch into an immense open floor plan bathed in sun-filled light from the sixty feet of glass overlooking a terraced stone wall leading to a stream and a pine forest of serenity. Life and entertainment begin here within this fully high-end equipped Chef’s kitchen with three counters. Two are Italian marble with a waterfall and custom bookcase. A baking center with a pop-up mixer and pull out shelves — oversized sink — and a prep work area plus a pot filler are all at your finger-tips. While family/guests are at the Sequoia tree counter (seating for eight) enjoying coffee from the coffee center, or enjoying a glass of wine from the wine center sitting by the floor to ceiling nine foot wide completely restored — stone by stone and timber — George Washington time fireplace in complete serendipity. Others may be at the library/guest room enjoying the original rumford fireplace or strolling past the waterfall to the dining/ guest room both having sliding glass doors for privacy. The warming drawers are off and the butlers pantry is busy with the sound of water and two dishwashers going as the evening is winding down.

West Stockbridge, MA Taking a magnificent curved staircase leads you to the original King’s Wood pine flooring to the massive primary suite with two balconies, double-sided fireplace, two California king-size beds and an adjoining office/nursery space; plus the laundry room. But more importantly to relax after a long day of work or travel — in the spa bathroom with a spa tub and dual headed shower for two. Here is peace and tranquility. There are two massive dressing rooms with custom built-in oversized dressers to complete your needs. Family/guests may take the spiral staircase to the basement to end their evening in this luxurious furnished home. Staging items are negotiable. All inspections have been completed and approved for you to move in immediately and enjoy the Berkshires in luxury and comfort. I look forward to hearing from you with any questions or a request for a private showing making this your perfect home. THANK-YOU.
