Some Berkshire homes are simply places to live. Others become part of the way you want to live.
The Oronoque Villas are among those rare places. Built in the mid-1990s on the historic grounds of Oronoque--one of Stockbridge's great Berkshire cottages--just eight freestanding villas were thoughtfully sited within the estate landscape, complementing the original mansion, now home to distinctive condominium residences. Surrounded by mature trees, sweeping lawns, and established gardens, this villa offers the warmth and privacy of a house, the simplicity of one-level living, and the freedom to lock the door and leave whenever adventure calls. Whether as a year-round home or a favorite Berkshire retreat, life here has a wonderful way of slowing you down. Originally selected as the model residence for the Oronoque Villas, this three-bedroom, two-bath home offers 1,773 square feet of thoughtfully planned, beautifully proportioned living space. A gracious covered porch welcomes you inside, where rich hardwood floors, handsome millwork, built-ins, and a wood-burning fireplace create rooms that feel inviting from the moment you arrive. Sunlight fills the home throughout the day, and the floor plan moves naturally from one space to the next.
The kitchen and dining area form the heart of the home, equally suited to leisurely breakfasts, holiday dinners, or long conversations around the table. Just beyond, the heated enclosed porch may become your favorite room--a place for morning coffee as the gardens awaken, a quiet afternoon with a good book, or cocktails with friends before dinner in Stockbridge or an evening at Tanglewood.
Outside, enjoy dinner on the private deck beneath the trees, then unwind in the hot tub as another Berkshire day comes to a close. Mature gardens create a peaceful and private setting, while an attached garage and whole-house generator provide comfort, convenience, and peace of mind in every season.
Life at Oronoque is every bit as memorable as the villa itself. The historic estate is known for its beautifully maintained grounds, winding drives, tennis court, newly appointed fitness center, and one of the Berkshires' loveliest heated swimming pools--shared amenities that feel more like those of a private country estate than a traditional condominium. The association maintains the exterior, roofs, driveways, landscaping, lawn care, and snow removal, allowing more time to enjoy everything the Berkshires has to offer.
Located in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, the villa is just minutes from the shops and restaurants of Stockbridge and Lenox, Tanglewood, Naumkeag, the Norman Rockwell Museum, hiking and cycling trails, ski areas, and the Berkshires' celebrated arts and cultural destinations. It is a setting that makes it wonderfully easy to embrace every season.
One of only eight coveted Oronoque Villas, this is the kind of home that becomes woven into family traditions--a place to gather, to celebrate, to recharge, and to return to, season after season.
