$625,000 buys a 2,185-square-foot contemporary A-frame in Charlemont set on 14.6 acres about 1,500 feet above the Deerfield River Valley.
The 1977 home has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths plus 1 half bath, with an open main level centered on a 412-square-foot living room and large picture windows framing Berkshire views.
A 1,000-foot gravel drive leads to the property, which also includes a wide wraparound deck, a weathered outbuilding, a Quonset-style greenhouse and a hilltop fire ring facing Berkshire East Mountain Resort.
The lower level’s ensuite bedroom can be reconfigured into a 300-square-foot recreation room, and the house has 200-amp service plus dual oil-or-wood boiler heating.
The listing agent says the town permits the property for short-term rentals, adding income potential to a home marketed for its seclusion and mountain setting.

Is this $625K A-frame a smart investment in a market with declining prices and complex short-term rental regulations?
