Billed as “one of the Berkshires’ finest residences,” 7 Prospect Hill Road in Stockbridge transports visitors from the real world into one full of lush gardens, idyllic scenery, and more.

Listed at $9.95 million, the five-bedroom, nine-bathroom estate sits on a 6.2-acre lot that is surrounded by protected vistas and features “exquisite” millwork, nine fireplaces, a wine cellar, a media room, a gym, and an elevator.

But while the indoors may be beautifully crafted, the real showstopper lies outside of the nearly 10,000-square-foot home.

Outside, residents will be welcomed by wraparound tiered terraces that lead to terraced gardens, a pool, and a pool house.

Of course, there isn’t just one garden - the property also has a formal garden, complete with a fountain. The home itself features a myriad of windows to allow the lush views inside.

According to Mansion Global, 7 Prospect Hill Road was previously owned by the late Armenian philanthropist Assadour “Aso” O. Tavitian. A Cold War refugee, Tavitian emigrated to New York from Beirut in 1961 and later went on to found SyncSort, one of America’s first software development companies.

Tavitian died in April 2020 and, among his accomplishments, is remembered as a generous supporter of the arts in the Berkshires.

A separate three-bedroom guest house sits on the estate and the property is only a few minutes’ walk from downtown Stockbridge.
