The massive historic estate has direct ties to the Gilded Age in the Northeast.
... [+]In the late 1800s, the Berkshires in Massachusetts was a prime spot for the Gilded Age wealthy to show off their money by building giant mansions, or “summer cottages” as society’s upper crust called them. Most have been lost to fire or demolished as impractical for a family to manage and finance. One of the biggest and best — Vanderbilt Berkshires Estate, formerly Elm Court — has just sold for $8 million to real estate investor and developer Linda Law.
Elm Court’s shingle style evolved from America’s New England architectural movement of the late 1800s modeled after Colonial American architecture. The home, which is registered as a National Historic Landmark, got its name from a large elm tree that stood at the entrance to the mansion, but later succumbed to disease.
