Tucked into the rolling hills of Great Barrington just minutes from downtown and the slopes of Ski Butternut, The Turning Point is a storied 3,600-square-foot Berkshire landmark operating as an active short-term rental. Steeped in history dating back to its 1800s stagecoach tavern roots, the property showcases an enduring dual-facade of classic New England brick and weathered clapboard. Inside, original period charm takes center stage with wide-plank wood floors and glowing fireplaces, perfectly paired with a rare, substantial footprint featuring 7 generous bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms. Designed for effortless hosting, this expansive retreat offers an incredible canvas for a lucrative rental investment, a boutique bed-and-breakfast, or a magnificent private country compound.
