Brookside Manor is a gracious and delightful 5 bedroom Victorian built in 1912. It is presently an operating Bed and Breakfast. The home was totally updated in 2007. Most of the original features remain with modern updates to include heating, wiring, insulation, roof, painted exterior and interior. The house features 3 fireplaces, 5 whirlpool tubs and a separate handsome cottage. There is a wonderful wrap around front pillared porch with slate floor and a great brick patio with fountain overlooking Warm Springs Run. Located less than two hours from Washington DC and Baltimore, this would be an outstanding business opportunity or for a personal residence, family compound or weekend retreat.
The Brookview Suite provides a wonderful view of the year round 74 degree spring waters that attracted George Washington to the area. It is surrounded with everything natural, from high tree tops to running water below. The Washington Suite is a large sun-filled room named after our first president, who was both a property owner and frequent visitor to “The Springs”. The Rumsey suite features a Juliet balcony for cocktails or something refreshing according to ones’ tastes.
Brookside Cottage, formerly the carriage house, is accessible from inside the main house, but also has a private entrance. Amenities include a full bath with multi-jet tub, heated floor and a well-equipped kitchen. In back you’ll find a brick patio along the spring-fed Warm Springs Run. The Cottage can be used as a full-time rental for added income.
Additionally, a four bedroom, three bathroom house directly across the street is also available for sale. You could live in this home while keeping the B&B operating in Brookside Manor.
Berkeley Springs is home to the award-winning Morgan Arts Council (MAC) which is located in the Ice House, a former 40,000 square foot apple cold storage building. MAC programs range from free summer concerts in Berkeley Springs State Park, an active Ice House Theater Project and changing exhibit gallery with meet-the-artists show openings. There are Ice House concerts, art classes, cultural lectures and an artists' cooperative selling visual products.
On summer weekends, the park might be filled with an antique car show, art displays or a free concert. Nearby, a seasonal Farmer’s Market offers fresh local products. Massage and bathing are high art in Berkeley Springs, available year round. Choose from centuries-old historic baths in Berkeley Springs State Park fed by the famed warm springs, as well as contemporary spas offering a variety of massage, skin and health treatments. Health and relaxation are primary concerns. The area boasts three times as many massage therapists as lawyers and is home to a unique manufacturer of homeopathic medicine.
All this activity, and the extensive community of working artists linked with MAC, has earned Berkeley Springs state, regional and national recognition. It is West Virginia's first certified arts community, is listed among the 100 best small art towns in all four volumes of the book by that name, and reliably places among the top 10 art destinations among small cities and towns in America.
