Extraordinary opportunity to own a showcase of New England history and hospitality--17 Main Street, a masterfully restored Berkshire cottage in the vibrant heart of downtown Lenox. Originally built in 1883 and once owned by Gilded Age shipping magnate John Schermerhorn, this landmark property blends historic grandeur with modern comfort. Between 2021 and 2025, the residence underwent a comprehensive top-to-bottom renovation: a new 30-year roof, upgraded electrical and plumbing, 8.5 renovated bathrooms, custom millwork, and restored original hardwood floors. The gourmet kitchen features a Viking 8-burner oven, KitchenAid designer dishwasher, and commercial-grade refrigeration--perfect for both private enjoyment and guest service. All systems are new, including a four-zone HVAC and seven mini-splits for year-round comfort. With eight bedrooms (plus potential for a ninth), five fireplaces with new gas log sets, and inviting communal spaces, this turnkey bed-and-breakfast offers luxury accommodations just steps from Lenox's acclaimed restaurants, boutique shops, and the world-renowned Tanglewood. Outdoor highlights include a newly designed patio for 50 guests, a five-car carport, and multiple decks for entertaining. This is a rare opportunity to own a thriving BandB in the Berkshires or to live in a meticulously renovated, architecturally distinct home.
