Most of the custom, high quality window treatments will remain, but the dining room light fixture, screened porch light fixture, and a large bedroom mirror are not included in the sale. Embrace a lifestyle of comfort, convenience, and elegance in a beautifully renovated and updated gem. Don't miss the rare opportunity to call this quintessential Berkshire Victorian your own.
