Friday Front Porch Feature: A Charming Dutch Colonial in North Adams

04:45PM / Friday, February 27, 2026

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Are you looking for a charming Dutch colonial family home? Then this might be 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 6 Overlook Terrace.

This three-bedroom, 1 1/2-bathroom home was built in 1920 and is 1,753 square feet with 0.17 acres.

The house comes with major kitchen appliances as well as a washer and dryer. It also includes a wood-burning fireplace. It has a granite chef's kitchen, hardwood floors and classic architecture. It is in the Greylock School neighborhood.

It is on the market for $399,000.

We spoke with Diane Thorson with William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty, which has the listing.

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

Thorson: The property stands out due to its unique combination of historic architecture, renovated interior and close proximity to downtown North Adams. It's a wonderful blend of classic neighborhood charm and all the conveniences of an updated home.

What was your first impression when you walked into the home?

My first impression was incredible brightness and warmth, thanks to the dark wood floors, the decor, and the wonderful ceiling height.

Are there any standout design features or recent renovations?

Yes, the standout features include restored original wood floors throughout the main level, and careful attention to preserving the original details.

What kind of buyer would this home be ideal for?

This home is ideal for someone from out of town or for someone who needs move-in readiness while retaining the character of an older home. Buyers would value the proximity to downtown, culture, and access to nature.

Do you know any unique stories about the home?

Plans in the registry show lots sold during the 1920s in a development called Overlook Terrace, suggesting the home might have been custom-built for a prominent local resident during that time. It does make someone curious.

What do the current owners love most about this home?

The current owners consistently mention how much they love being there and the design has a traditional feel but an open flow.

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

When you enter, you can see that the homeowner has provided a serene and warm atmosphere in a traditional, yet elevated way. It is just a beautiful house to be in!
