A waterfront respite in Lee takes the cake as our Luxury Home of the Week pick. The mansion at 49 Chanterwood Road, listed for $4,999,000, includes 877 feet of lake frontage on Goose Pond and sits on a whopping 35 acres of Berkshires woodland, providing total privacy.

The 6,000-square-foot property was designed and constructed for the builder in 2015 with energy efficiency in mind. It features five bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and one half bathroom. Leslie Glenn Chesloff and Patrice Melluzzo of William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty have the listing.

Wood details and vaulted ceilings are found through the gated Berkshires property. On the first level, the living room’s soaring ceiling is met with skylights, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and ample views of Goose Pond. The home’s dining room offers French doors to a screened porch, also with skylights and a stone fireplace. The kitchen features a breakfast bar and an island with a range. A sizable built-in desk with storage is nearby.

This level is also home to two bedroom suites: one with a private stone patio, the other with a glass door opening to the screened porch.

A sitting area on the second floor landing overlooks the living room below, while three more en-suite bedrooms occupy the rest of the floor — including one with a private entrance that can be used as an in-law suite. The lower level of this Berkshires mansion is home to exercise and media rooms.
