River Run is an incredible property close to all the Berkshires have to offer! This 1815 double cape farmhouse in has been lovingly restored, renovated and expanded over the past 30 yrs. The house sits on a small road that runs along the Westfield river, so you are literally right on the river with a view of the river from almost every room.
We have a new Har-Tru tennis court and cedar hot tub (solar/electric powered). There is a large backyard patio with bbq, a huge fire pit area in the woods, an enchanting meditation garden, and access to swimming and fishing in the river nearby.
We have 3 relaxing hammock spots, a large backyard for playing games, a lovely front porch to watch sunsets over the river.
The restored 1815 part of the house has an incredibly warm and welcoming feel with an eclectic mix of antiques, custom made furniture, art, rugs, books and lots of character from local antique shops and our travels around the world.
The older part of the house has 3 upstairs bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 upstairs and one on ground floor). The living room has a large TV and fireplace, a dining room that can sit 10, and a small study connecting the dining room to an enclosed back porch. This ‘summer porch’ can be a living area or an extra bedroom since it has a queen sofa bed.
The vaulted ceiling kitchen has a door to the front porch overlooking the river, and access to the back patio and large back yard. This large kitchen is great for cooking and gatherings and connects via a mudroom to a ‘barn wing’ (built where the original barn was). This wing of the house has a 4th bedroom and a 3rd bathroom upstairs above the garage.
The 4th bedroom is also know as 'the studio' as it was the artist studio for the previous owners and it is larger than a studio apt. There is a queen sofa bed, sitting area, 3 desks with 2 large monitors, a treadmill, workout bench, free weights, yoga mats, ballet bar, and still has plenty of room for a blow up mattress or 2. Please send a request if you have more than 10 people.
If you have less than 8 people and you don’t need this extra bed/bath in the barn wing above the garage, then we can lock those rooms and provide a discounted rate during the summer - please send a request.
There is hi speed Wifi and a Sonos sound system throughout the house.
One of our favorite things about River Run is hearing the sound of the river and watching it flow by. We also love the proximity to great hiking, fishing, biking, swimming in beautiful lakes, cross country skiing, as well as access to local wineries, breweries, artists and makers, farm stands, and all of the art and cultural events that can be found in both the Berkshires and Pioneer Valley.

We are a NO PET property but might be able to make an exception for 1 well-behaved pet, with an extra cleaning fee. If you arrive with pets without discussing in advance we will need to charge a larger pet cleaning fee and you will receive a negative review. Please message us first so we can discuss!
