About This Home

As of November 2024

If Norman Rockwell could have conjured up & illustrated an idyllic homestead, it would have been 38 Obtuse Rd South located in the foothills of the Berkshire mountains in bucolic Brookfield. This sweet, spacious ranch home is nestled on a beautiful 1+ acres adorned with vibrant gardens, lush level lawns & mature landscaping. Across the street is Shakespeare's Garden; a magical place to explore with a 10 acre farm, barn shop (which sells coffee & ice cream) & 100+ acres of open space offering hiking trails, cross country skiing, dog walking, bird watching & sledding. This beautifully maintained home is solidly built with the workmanship of a bygone era. The hardwood floors are noteworthy as they are pristine! This home oozes warmth, character & love. It is light filled with a kitchen which is truly the heart of the home with its vaulted ceilings, island, large dining area, wonderful seating area, skylights, abundant windows & sliders accessing the lovely deck with views/access to this private backyard. The Dining Rm is adjacent & opens into an inviting Living Rm. with a bay window & wood burning fireplace. There is a great mudroom too! The Primary Bedrm is surprisingly large & has generous closet space. There are 3 more Bedrms, 2 Full Baths, & an Office that offers a 5th Bedrm option. A finished LL has a great Family Rm, Rec/Ex. Rm & Utility/Work Rm . Storage galore! Newer roof (2018). Easy commute to Rte. 84 &, Brookfield/Newtown Center. Welcome to your forever home!
