Friday Front Porch Feature: A Charming Victorian in Adams

By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff

ADAMS, Mass. — Are you looking for a Victorian home with historic charm? Then this is the home for you.

Our Friday Front Porch is a weekly feature spotlighting attractive homes for sale in Berkshire County. This week, we are showcasing 32 Summer St.

You can see the house in person this Sunday, Oct. 11, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for an open house.

This 1900 home is 2,497 square feet and has four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The house is filled with natural light showcasing the spacious living areas that have hardwood flooring. The front door opens to the living room that features a fireplace for cozy evenings in the winter.

The kitchen is the perfect place to enjoy breakfast or watch while someone cooks. It has an attached dining room, the perfect place for family meals. 

The house has a semi-finished basement with a wet bar included and another room with pantry amenities.

The back yard has semi-views of Mount Greylock and also features a deck space with a retractable awning for meals or a space to enjoy the outside.

The house is on the market for $525,000.

We spoke with Sean Taylor with Moresi Real Estate Partners who is listing the home.

What do you think makes this house stand out in the current market?

This house has been completely renovated with nothing left undone. From tin ceilings to hardwood floors throughout, heat pumps in most rooms, and Trex decking. The second floor has a redone laundry room with lots of closet space. The bathrooms have been updated as well as the kitchen, electrical. The home is just waiting for a new family to come and enjoy the heavy lifting that's already been done.
