Previously owned by one of Hollywood’s most iconic actors, this 6,000 SF estate sits on 40 secluded acres with stunning views of Massachusetts’s tallest mountain. The property includes a farm-to-table herb and vegetable garden, sculpture walk, pond, orchard, fire pit, 13’ foot dining table & more. In addition, the property is surrounded by the 2,000+ acre Taconic Trail State Park, featured in National Geographics’ “100 Hikes of a Lifetime”, perfect for hiking, cross country skiing & snowshoeing.

At the heart of the home, the main living room boasts a two-story ceiling, illuminated by a clerestory window and fireplace as well as an adjacent sitting room graced by a piano. A modern glass-railed catwalk, suspended above, effortlessly connects the primary guest suite to the second-story guest bedrooms, offering a unique architectural flair. A second spacious living room offers multiple seating options as well as an additional fireplace. Hardwood floors complemented by plush wool and silk rugs exist throughout while walls of glass sliding doors overlook the expansive mahogany deck vistas beyond.

In between the kitchen and dining area is an additional outdoor deck with seating and a gas grill.

The expansive library/game room emerges as a hub for entertainment and relaxation. Not only does it boast a 90" WIFI-enabled TV for streaming from platforms such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, but is also adorned with custom built-in bookshelves. An abundance of seating options, including a sectional sofa and plush chairs, invites guests to settle in and unwind in comfort.

Amazing House!
My friends and I really enjoyed staying at this property. The place was very clean, and nicely set up! Would definitely love to stay there again! One thing I would recommend to anyone coming here in the winter is to have a 4x4 vehicle.

Early Family Christmas at the Brookman
The Brookman is a delightful place for a long weekend family gathering. It's a great house for a large group, especially one who enjoys cooking together. The kitchen opens up into the fabulous dining room, so a large group can easily be together. The bedrooms are comfortable and afford everyone plenty of privacy. The host is very responsive. My niece had to take an online exam the morning we were leaving, and so the host generously extended the departure time for her even though the house was rented out for later in the day and the housekeeping team was working to get things ready for the next guests. By-the-by, the house was spotless. And the views are gorgeous. We highly recommend the Brookman.

Great Family Thanksgiving
Three generations of our family met here for a Thanksgiving weekend. The facility is great. Spacious, nicely furnished and well equipped. The adults enjoyed the separate seating areas and the large dining room table that had room for all of us. Teenagers had video games, pool and foosball. The pre-schoolers had room to play and a daily visit to the huge walk-inj shower. All of us explored the fields and woods. The surprise snow locked us on the property for a while and we built a snowman.

Family happy time
Experience was great. Just room description on site was a bit deceiving. It really isn’t a true 8 bedroom. Overall everything was great. Thank you for a lovely experience. I would definitely recommend this property.
