@cornerhousekate welcomes you to this 2nd floor apt overlooking the picturesque town of Monterey from its very own private balcony. It's the perfect escape for remote work or a well-deserved country getaway. Enjoy FREE high speed internet and FREE parking. Walk to the library across the street, to Lake Garfield’s adorable public beach or to a nearby hiking trail. Drive 10 min to Butternut Ski Mountain and 15-30 min to Great Barrington, Lenox and Stockbridge for quaint shops and delicious food. The space With a mix of mid-century modern, French country and industrial decor, the space is warm and inviting, but not cluttered. West Elm, Anthropologie, Le Creuset, Knoll, Ralph Lauren and vintage items adorn the queen size bedroom, the guest room/office (with a full size pull out couch), the full bathroom, the open concept living/dining room and the equipped kitchen. The house was built in 1790 and boasts true historic charm and character. The apartment is accessed through a private entrance off of the driveway. There is a mudroom at the top of the stairs for snowy skis and muddy boots! Guest access You can access the basement to use the washer and dryer from 6am to 2pm daily. The yard is shared with the tenants in the apartment below. The staircase inside the house, near your bathroom, is for emergencies only. Other things to note This apartment is on the second floor. You will need to climb one set of stairs. Please advise the host if you are planning to use to pull out couch at the time of booking so it can be set up for your arrival. There is no dishwasher in the apartment. There is an ethernet connection, but it's not located in the office space. It's in the bedroom. Wifi is strong as you can see in photos. We have cameras monitoring the driveway side.
