About this home

Step onto Royalston Common and experience La Bastille, a rare High-Style Antique set on 18± acres of pastoral land. Steeped in remarkable history with ties to Empress Zita and European royalty, this 10-room residence blends timeless character with tasteful updates completed by Malcolm Rogers, former Director of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Enjoy 4 fireplaces, a beautifully remodeled kitchen with French doors, hardwood floors, 4 Bedrooms, and 3.5 updated baths. The screened porch, fruit trees, and gentle landscape create an idyllic retreat. The property also includes the original Donald Ross–designed golf course and an Arts & Crafts garden by Ellen Shipman, both awaiting restoration. Close to Royalston Falls, Doane’s Falls, and Tully Lake—and offering convenient access to Boston, Amherst, Keene, and the best of the North Quabbin. A truly exceptional property for those seeking history, privacy, and a peaceful New England lifestyle.
