THE SANCTUARY AT ROOD HILL—2022 Custom Colonial Farmhouse on 78+ Acres

The Rarest Offering in the Southern Berkshires: Discover the ultimate convergence of modern luxury and absolute solitude. Set upon a staggering 78.53-acre canvas with over 2,300 feet of road frontage, this pristine 2022 custom Colonial farmhouse offers a lifestyle often sought but rarely found: new construction reliability within a historic, whisper-quiet landscape. Whether you are an equestrian seeking a turnkey facility or a creative visionary desiring a quiet compound, this estate is designed for stewardship and serenity. A Masterpiece of Modern Efficiency: Step inside to an interior defined by clean lines, natural light, and quiet sophistication. The heart of the home is a chef's kitchen that perfectly balances form and function, featuring honed soapstone countertops, a full suite of stainless steel Bosch appliances, and custom cabinetry. This culinary space flows effortlessly into a gracious living room, anchored by the most relaxing gas fireplace that serves as the focal point for intimate gatherings. The design philosophy creates an immersive connection to the landscape. Stepping out from the main living area, a sprawling screened-in porch offers the property's best vantage point. From here, you can enjoy coffee while overlooking your riding ring, grazing paddocks, and seemingly endless rows of historic stone walls dating back to the 1800s, a constant reminder of the land's agricultural heritage. Designed for longevity and ease, the residence offers true single-level living. The first-floor primary suite is a private retreat, complete with a expansive walk-in closet and en-suite full bath. The main level also features a dedicated laundry room and a powder room for guests. Upstairs, a versatile loft space separates two generous guest bedrooms, each boasting walk-in closets, sharing a pristine full bathroom. The Land as Your Canvas: Beyond the equestrian amenities, the acreage itself is a masterpiece of natural beauty and agricultural potential. The landscape unfolds in a series of cleared, sun-drenched pastures framed by ancient stone walls, offering ripe opportunity for organic farming, orchards, or apiaries for those wishing to live off the land. The topography is both rugged and serene, laced with babbling brooks and a tranquil small pond that reflects the changing seasons. This is not just property; it is a living ecosystem waiting for your vision. World-Class Infrastructure and Equestrian Facilities: The exterior amenities are engineered to the highest standards. The 2022-built, 30'x48' barn is a marvel of utility. For the Equestrian: Four 10x12 stalls (each with electricity), a heated tack room, feed room, a wash stall with hot water, outdoor spigots, and a 60'x120' sanded riding ring with separate grazing paddocks. For the Creative/Collector: The barn features a massive loft capable of holding 1,000 hay bales; a voluminous space in totality that is ripe for reimagining as an artist's studio, workshop, custom car garage, or recreation hall. The structure includes a 10 foot overhang for dry storage of machinery or recreational vehicles. Unrivaled Versatility and Recreation: The sheer scale of the acreage, combined with significant road frontage, presents a rare opportunity for future expansion. Whether you envision a multi-generational family compound or a more modest accessory dwelling unit addition, the land offers the flexibility to evolve with your needs (buyers to perform due diligence). Beyond development potential, the property functions as a private national park. With 78+ acres at your disposal, you can groom private trails for horses, ATVs, and snowmobiles, or enjoy snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and hunting all without ever leaving your own land. Uncompromised Peace of Mind: Every detail of the mechanicals has been considered for rural resilience. The home is powered by top-tier, high-efficiency systems and backed by a whole-home Generac generator that services both the residence and the barn, ensuring comfort regardless of the season. An attached and insulated 2-car garage provides direct access to the homes mudroom. The Lifestyle: Located in the heart of Sandisfield, this property offers a profound silence that is becoming the ultimate luxury asset. You are surrounded by protected forests yet remain within striking distance of Great Barrington's dining, Tanglewood, and the cultural richness of the Berkshires. Located minutes from the CT border, and equidistant of 2.5 hours between NYC and Boston, you aren't just buying a home; you are securing a legacy.
