Escape to your own island retreat where each day is a peaceful, waterfront sojourn. Nestled on an island in Big Pond, this tranquil waterfront property offers extraordinary privacy, natural beauty and modern comfort. Thoughtfully updated, the home features a masterfully renovated kitchen and bath, a first-floor bedroom and distinctive architectural details including cedar shakes, that create warmth and character throughout. All furnishings to stay. Mornings of seasonal birdsong and the delicate beauty of the new day invite ease and comfort both on the screened, full-windowed porch or on the two outdoor decks. Breathtaking views of the lake encourage leisurely relaxation while winding garden paths and natural stone walls enhance the property’s timeless appeal. A large boathouse provides exceptional storage for all your recreational equipment and includes a clothes dryer and refrigerator for added convenience. If you enjoy sailing, paddling or simply exploring the water, the property’s sailboat, canoe, kayaks and motorboat allow you to embrace an active and energetic lifestyle on this 330-acre lake. Tension and stress melt away as you cross the water to your own secluded oasis. Here you’ll discover enduring serenity, stunning scenery and stimulating outdoor activities where privacy and nature surround you. Tanglewood, world-class art museums and theatre, shopping, dining and everyday conveniences remain within easy reach in Otis and the nearby Berkshire hills.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 403 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 806 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 23,100 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
