Listing broker remarks

Right in the heart of Shelburne Falls, this extraordinary Octagon home is a true work of art. Thoughtfully restored by a local master builder, it blends historic architecture with exceptional craftsmanship and modern comfort. Radiant heated tile floors, handcrafted built-ins, custom lighting, and a dramatic spiral staircase lead to a rooftop cupola and mahogany deck with sweeping village views. Zoned for both residential and commercial use, this unique property was once home to a beloved art gallery and offers endless live/work possibilities. The detached studio/guesthouse is a standout feature, complete with its own utilities and bath, making it ideal for guests, an artist's studio, office, gallery, or wellness space. Beautiful gardens, fruit trees, stone walls, and a close location to nearby shops, restaurants, the Bridge of Flowers, library, and farmers market complete this one of a kind offering.— REMAX Connections - Greenfield
