WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Looking for a spacious home with a luxurious kitchen on a quiet street? We have one for you in Williamstown.

Our Friday Front Porch is a weekly feature spotlighting attractive homes for sale in Berkshire County. This week, we are discussing an inviting family home at 4 Woodlawn Drive.

The house has three bedrooms and three bathrooms and was built in 1955 but was fully remodeled in 2021-2022. The asking price is $795,000.

The house is 2,100 square feet with 0.36 acres. It will come with a dishwasher, washer, refrigerator, range, range hood, dryer. Located off Cole Avenue, it's not far from Williams College, Williamstown Elementary School, Linear Park and Spring Street. 

We spoke to Erin Scott at Burnham Gold Real Estate on this property.

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

Scott: Location, location, location! This property is tucked away into a quiet residential neighborhood but only a couple blocks from the Williams College campus and downtown Williamstown. 

How would you describe the feel or atmosphere of this home?  

Scott: The atmosphere in this home is multidimensional. The amazing kitchen in this home makes me feel like I want to cook and entertain for friends & family but I could also see myself quietly relaxing with a good book in the sunroom, on the deck or in the yard. 

What kind of buyer do you see this home being perfect for?  

Scott: I think this home could appeal to many buyers.  A full time family would be a great fit, retirees, singles or second home owners alike. 

Are there any standout design features or recent renovations?  

Scott: The owner of this home spared no expense on the renovations. The kitchen is a chef's absolute dream!

What do the current owners love about the home?

Current owner: "I love the openness of the house from the front through the three rooms to the outside deck. The house was built for entertaining and because of the full home remodel, every single room was updated. The neighborhood is one of the best in Williamstown. Walking distance to school, the college downtown and restaurants." 

What was your first impression of the home? 

Scott: Why would they ever want to sell this gem!? You can tell they put a lot of thought, attention to detail, and heart into all the renovations. 

What kind of neighborhood is it?  

Scott: The neighborhood has a great community feel. It's quiet, but super easy to access downtown, the elementary school and Williams College.

Mount Greylock School Committee Discusses Collaboration Project with North County Districts

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — News that the group looking at ways to increase cooperation among secondary schools in North County reached a milestone sparked yet another discussion about that group's objectives among members of the Mount Greylock Regional School Committee.
 
At Thursday's meeting, Carolyn Greene reported that the Northern Berkshire Secondary Sustainability task force, where she represents the Lanesborough-Williamstown district, had completed a request for proposals in its search for a consulting firm to help with the process that the task force will turn over to a steering committee comprised of four representatives from four districts: North Berkshire School Union, North Adams Public Schools, Hoosac Valley Regional School District and Mount Greylock Regional School District.
 
Greene said the consultant will be asked to, "work on things like data collection and community outreach in all of the districts that are participating, coming up with maybe some options on how to share resources."
 
"That wraps up the work of this particular working group," she added. "It was clear that everyone [on the group] had the same goals in mind, which is how do we do education even better for our students, given the limitations that we all face.
 
"It was a good process."
 
One of Greene's colleagues on the Mount Greylock School Committee used her report as a chance to challenge that process.
 
"I strongly support collaboration, I think it's a terrific idea," Steven Miller said. "But I will admit I get terrified when I see words like 'regionalization' in documents like this. I would feel much better if that was not one of the items we were discussing at this stage — that we were talking more about shared resources.
