1979 Built

The Ephraim Chapin House, a.k.a the ''Landlord Abel House'' was built in Chicopee c. 1725. In 1979 this handsome home & tavern was dismantled and relocated to Southfield. There it was re-erected upon a new foundation atop a hill, where it now resides on a 51-acre estate straddling the banks of Konkapot River. Once the beloved retreat of an artist and a serious collector of early American art and antiques this 3-story 4-bedroom home has been painstakingly rebuilt and restored. Original wainscoting in the ''keeping room'' is a rare example of interior decorative painting by the Scroll Painter, a documented but unnamed American decorative artist active the 1790's. Other details include original floorboards & exposed chestnut beams, center chimney with 6 brick fireplaces... (See ''More''.) The 1st floor includes 2 stately front parlors, the "keeping room", and a Shaker-style kitchen, with sunroom addition designed by architect Paul Clark in 2000. On the 2nd floor, the primary suite features its own dressing area and a full bath. The northwest bedroom and the southeast "Victorian bedroom" share a Jack-and-Jill bath. A foyer near the rear staircase leads to a fourth bedroom suite above the garage. On the 3rd floor is a heated atelier with soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, surrounding the massive floor-to-ceiling brick chimney. Formerly used as a painting studio, this beautiful space has utility sink, a ½ bath, and enviable views of the valley to the South. With lush pastoral views, forest areas, and walking trails along its river frontage, this estate marries an unusual level of historic detail with modern amenities. Poured concrete foundation, modern HVAC system, spray foam insulation, and a two-car garage. Plumbing and electric systems recently replaced. AC on 1st floor and in Primary Suite. 20 minutes to Great Barrington. Less than a mile south of Umpachene Falls.
