MILLERTON — Recorded transfers of property are informative because they include all real estate ownership changes — not just ones handled by real estate brokers. Off-market sales tend to be between friends or family, properties “sold by owner,” distressed situations, and often commercial properties such as the sale of the Millerton Plaza, the Town of North East’s supermarket, for $1.75 million. The sale of the “Ice House” at 12 State Line Road by the owner — whose address is in Rio de Janeiro — for only $160,000 is an example of a distressed sale that took years and was never publicly listed. In December of the eight recorded transfers only three were listed on any MLS. The four residential properties transferred privately all sold at prices well below the three publicly listed houses.

In Mid-January the Town of North East had 12 homes listed for sale ranging from $399,000 to $5.9 million, and 16 parcels of land also with a huge range of $3.4 million to five building lots for less than $79,000.

49 Simmons St. — 3 bedroom/2 bath renovated village house on .38 acres sold for $505,000.

31 Traver Place — 3 bedroom/2 bath house sold for $437,500.

20 Haight Road — 3 bedroom/1.5 bath house sold off-market for $160,000.

144 Skunks Misery Road — additional .98 acres of land in a lot line alteration sold off-market for $50,000.

6118 Route 22 — 4 bedroom/1 bath house sold off-market for $220,000.

12 State Line Road — long abandoned 3 bedroom/2 bath house on 3.81 acres known as the Ice House sold off-market for $137,101.

While playing outside in the early post-pandemic days, Berkshire Busk! founder Eugene Carr had an epiphany: why not expand the idea of performing on the street (aka busking)into a full-fledged festival in Great Barrington?

As an entrepreneur and cellist, Carr envisioned a well-organized jamboree featuring regional talent, including musicians, acrobats, storytellers, fire-eaters, and more. He formed a team, connected with local businesses and the town of Great Barrington, and launched Berkshire Busk! in 2021. Since then, Berkshire Busk! has grown into a summer staple for Great Barrington.

In this clever and heartfelt comedy, the title character — a stray pup who disrupts the lives of a married couple — is portrayed not in costume but by an actor who brings insight, charm, and chaos to the role.

Stepping into Sylvia’s paws is Jen Cody, who is returning to the Sharon Playhouse in a starring role for her third year in a row, ready to bring this spirited dog to life. She’s joined by Jonathan Walker as Greg, the middle-aged man smitten with his new four-legged friend, and Jennifer Van Dyck as Kate, his wife, whose patience and identity are tested by Sylvia’s sudden presence in their home.
