The 9,500-square-foot Gilded Age estate in Lenox, Massachusetts, is listed for $4.85 million. The property is famous for its architectural scale and ties to the family of financier J.P. Morgan and President Chester Arthur. It was commissioned in 1881 by former Secretary of State Frederick Frelinghuysen and part of a collection of homes known as Berkshire Cottages. The estate offers a unique investment profile, blending late 19th-century grandeur with modern luxury across three levels. While it is currently a luxury destination for group stays and weddings, it can easily transition back to a private family compound or corporate retreat.
