This is such a property: an elegant, contemporary 5,000+sf estate home, renovated in 2014, with pool, spa & pool house, & guest quarters over a carriage barn. There are 8 bedrooms in all, with pastoral & mountain vistas stretching across generous acreage in a prime Alford location with very low taxes. Upon entering the property you will begin to relax and know this is "home". The manicured gardens, and lawn folding into pasture, define a true 'sense of place'. The stone circular drive leads you to the front of the graceful, timeless, and thoroughly contemporary homebuilt in 2002 and renovated in 2014. The double-height entry hall, flooded with natural light, its soft grey walls complimenting the custom white millwork, graciously welcomes you. The heart of this home is doubtless the Great Room - spacious, yet thoroughly comfortable open-plan living that encompasses an expertly designed and equipped kitchen, a large dining room, and living room with stone fireplace - all opening on to a generous screened porch. The kitchen's gleaming concrete-crafted countertops reflect the light of the glass mosaic backsplash. A Viking 6 burner range is the centerpiece of the large 11' x 4' island. There is an additional Viking convection oven, a Sub-zero refrigerator, and two Bosch dishwashers. The kitchen has a farm sink, prep sink and walk-in pantry. Enjoy a morning cup of coffee in the adjacent breakfast room. Designed for entertaining on an intimate or (just as easily) a grand scale, the dining area provides room for a table large enough to seat 14 people. There is a wall of windows overlooking the pasture to the west and the lovely bluestone terraced patio, pool and spa. The living area's fieldstone fireplace (one of three) is a warming counterpoint to the summer's spa area. Large double French doors open to a 20' x 20' screened room with both living and dining areas. A patio adjoining the screened room is steps from the pool area - the 40' gunite pool and spa with generous decking and Goshen stone walls, a fire-pit, and a pool house equipped with a refrigerator, sink and counter-space, storage, bath and outdoor shower. The main level of the home is as practical as it is elegant. A mudroom with laundry serves as a second entrance. There is a guest (or first floor master) suite with a full ensuite bath that has a radiant-heated floor, and a private entrance. There is a powder room with Venetian plaster walls, a second bedroom and office. Up the oak staircase there is a luxurious master suite with wood-burning fireplace, a large second-story deck with outdoor shower, a recently outfitted walk-in closet and a striking master bath. The steam shower, huge jetted spa tub, double sinks and heated towel bar make this bath your own private spa and retreat. There are two lovely additional bedrooms and a full bath with slate floor. Down the stairs to the lower level there are more luxurious surprises. The exercise room with mirrored walls, a sink and wall-mounted television can also easily function as a playroom. There is a large storage room with built-in cabinets, a 500-bottle climate controlled wine cellar, and extra refrigerator. The mechanicals of the home located here, include a large propane hot water heater, central air conditioning and gas heating with five distinct zones. The property is fully alarmed. An automatic generator provides power to the essential parts of the home when needed. Crowning the lower level is a brand new media room with radiant heated floors, a fireplace, a place for a huge flat screen LED television, built-in bookshelves and doors to a large outdoor patio adjacent to the pool and spa. Across that patio and down a slight hill there is a 1200 square foot, guest house with carriage barn. An electric gated fence allows entrance to the three bays, one of which is heated, and additional storage and a sporting goods equipment room. The guest quarters have central air conditioning as well, warm wood floors, two full baths an open-plan living and dining room, dishwasher and refrigerator. Thoughtfully designed, two of the bedrooms and a bath may be closed off to create a private suite. The landscaped grounds are expertly lighted at night, and there are old apple, maple and oak trees mixed throughout along with mature birch and cherry trees. An elegant, lighted apple tree is the centerpiece of the pool area You may purchase the estate on its ten acres. If you desire additional acreage, or even wish to purchase or build another home, there is a 78+ acre contiguous parcel on offer. This land is exceptionally beautiful and a rare combination of open meadow, a pond and land gently sloping up the mountainside with the potential for a dazzling distant view. A home constructed on this parcel will not compromise the exquisite privacy of the estate home. The land is as beautiful and as varied as the Berkshires themselves, and not to be missed. Contiguous to the estate is also a second home that is only being offered for sale as a part of the estate, or the 78 acre parcel. This house has a very large main-floor master, laundry room and new bath. The large Great Room affords beautiful views of fields and mountains. There is a guest half bath, one car garage, a lower walk-out level with two finished rooms, office, garage, storage and a full bath. The home has a lovely screened porch, a private drive lined with apple trees and would be an excellent addition to the estate to create a compound. 3 Dellea Road, Alford with 10 acres, a main 5 bedroom, 5,000 square foot home, outdoor pool & spa with pool house, 3 bedroom guest house and 3 bay carriage barn: $2,600,000 An additional 78.8 acres and building site: $1,150,000 7 Dellea Road (currently only in conjunction with one or both of the properties above): $495,000 Buyer please verify all information herein
