The Freeman - Newly Renovated 14K SF Estate on 40 Acres

  • 25 Guests
  • 5 Bedrooms
  • 20 Beds
  • 4 Bathrooms

The Freeman Berkshires sits on 40 acres of manicured landscape with a tennis court, a four-acre vineyard, a myriad of amenities and rolling views of a large pond on property and Mount Everett beyond. Whether you want to relax in the library, cuddle up in the lodge room, enjoy the artist's loft or snuggle up in front of one of the home's six fireplaces, you will find beautiful spaces to enjoy in groups or in solitude. 100% carbon neutral.

The property offers two dining rooms (including a fifteen foot custom dining table), a well equipped kitchen, herb and vegetable garden, fire pit and expansive multi-level blue stone patios and decks. A three car garage and loft is included.

We provide a long list of amenities, including a paddle board, four person metal row boat and kayak for the pond. For the kids big and small we offer a retro arcade, foosball table, ping-pong, board games, PS4 and a virtual reality gaming system. For outdoors you will find bocce, croquet, tennis and badminton equipment, large Jenga and more.

The Freeman Berkshires is an innovative social equity vehicle. Owned by 141 investors from Main Street and Wall Street through Shared Estates' equity crowdfunding model, the property is part of a transformation that levels the real estate investing playing field.

The Berkshires is one of the country's top cultural centers: Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (largest in the US), Kripalu (largest yoga center), Williams College (#1 Liberal Arts College in the US), Tanglewood, Shakespeare and Company, The Mount, Clark Art, Jacobs Pillow and more.

The Berkshires is also home to a variety of outdoor destinations: Bousquet, Butternut, Catamount (longest zip line in the USA) and Jiminy Peak.

One 90" TV in the lodge room for family movie nights. We provide the popcorn, biscotti, teas, cocoa, candy and more. A welcome basket of local goods and fresh cut flowers greet your party.

The Freeman Berkshires is named after local Elizabeth (Mumbet) Freeman - the first African American to sue and win her freedom under the Massachusetts constitution in 1781. You will find a variety of sculpture and original art installed in tribute to her story. The property donates 1% of net income to the Elizabeth Freeman Center, a 501c(3) that works to end cycles of domestic violence.

Owner's previous property was #1 on VRBO in the Berkshires, and was showcased on Netflix's "World's Most Amazing Vacation Rentals" series.
