The photographs of the basement certainly look that way!

It's actually a mile from the center of the town of Lenox,
and although the Elms in question have been cut down,
there are still trees everywhere.

One of the weird things about this property is that somehow
the Vanderbilt lady acquired land that overlapped
the town boundary line between Lenox and Stockbridge to the south.
So, as far as I may make out,
the big fat manor house, with the gates, sits in Lenox,
while the outlying buildings, greenhouses, and fields are in Stockbridge ...
