What an interesting home with a great history and proximity to the Hancock Shaker Village! My friends and I chose the place specifically to visit the village, and it was literally across the street - we really appreciated the 2 free passes too. The home itself was comfortable and spacious with gorgeous views, even in the wintertime. It was a bit chilly inside, but gave us a good excuse to just hunker down with some blankets.
Beautiful place. Pictures don’t do it justice! Very cool design and beautiful views. Excellent hiking trails directly from property. It was below 0 with the windchill and there was a foot+ of snow on the ground but we still enjoyed the shaker mountain trails.
The place was truly beautiful. My kids loved all the open spaces and the abundance of natural light from the windows throughout.
