LENOX â After a three-month shutdown for a major interior modernization, the landmark Gateways Inn has reopened under the ownership of Mill Town Capital.
The Pittsfield-based private investment firm purchased the downtown inn in July, in a $1 million real estate transaction that included the three-bedroom, three-bathroom residence tucked away behind the inn, built in 1997. It now is available as a contemporary guesthouse for families, couples and for longer stays.
The 1912 Gilded Age âcottage,â built for Harley Procter, of Procter & Gamble and Ivory Soap fame, remains an imposing mansion with 12 guest rooms, a locally popular lounge for nightlife featuring area performers, and a full-service, year-round restaurant, the Walker Street Grille, set to reopen in early May for indoor and seasonal outdoor dining.
