The historic Berkshires property, which had previously sat vacant for decades, is in new hands following an $8 million sale, with plans pointing to a resort.
Touches include wooden floors and period moldings — and, despite rumors, the property was 75% renovated.Around that time, the grand life of the Berkshires cottagers was drawing to a close, and in 1948 the Vanderbilt-Sloane scions turned Elm Court into an inn of sorts: The Elm Court Club. That closed after a decade and Elm Court was then abandoned for more than 40 years.
Almost gorgeous: “The former owners spray-painted over part of them,” said Law. “Gloppy thick paint.” “I want to add more amenities,” she said. “The basement is all beautiful brick. We can put in a speakeasy, a movie theater and a place for gardening classes to honor the gardening legacy.” The basement will also house a 15,000-square-foot spa.
By the first quarter of 2025, Law hopes to welcome guests to what is now the Vanderbilt Berkshires Estate.
