Join me for a VERY quick tour of the Larchmont Manor Park 10538

    I was meeting clients the other day, but could NOT resist the beautiful weather, and so made a quick diversion to the Larchmont Manor Park  (established in 1892).  While this video is very short,  it does capture the tranquility, beauty and one of the many reasons, people love to live in the Manor, 10538!

Featured here is the Horseshoe Harbor Yacht Club which was founded in 1988, and the Larchmont Manor Beach. If you are seeking a home in the Larchmont area-  please call me. I will be happy to assist!

Larchmont is GREAT!

A Rental, 10538, A Sale 10804 & a Pet Adoption…..

I recently listed a very nice home in Larchmont ,10538 for rent. The owners,  (and now friends) a lovely young couple who were relocating,  could not take their beloved dog of 4 years to their new apartment. They knew of no-one who could take the dog and they also wanted to make sure that a special family would be adopting their pooch. I immediately suggested that I would put out feelers about adoption within my area offices (we have a wonderful network), but the owner could not emotionally address the issue at first…hoping against hope that something would change …. but it didn’t.

Three weeks before they were going to leave their home, and on my way to a  closing on a lovely property in New Rochelle,  I stopped by the rental property and asked to take a pic of the pooch. While we were at the closing,  I cheekily asked that now they have the perfect home, would they be interested in the perfect dog? I showed them a photo of the beautiful pet, who is so gentle, sweet and just great, and they immediately fell in love.  I suggested that we pop over to my friend’s home to meet the dog after the closing,  and that is what we did. They all liked each other at first sight, and over the course of the ensuing few weeks, the new family gradually introduced the pooch into their home to meet the children, and to make the process as easy as possible for all.  The pet has now been lovingly ensconced into the new home for several weeks now, and the new owners and children are enjoying him greatly. They love him, and give updates all of the time to the past owners.

I am so glad it worked out for all concerned.

Pam Joyce – Swimming her way into our hearts

IMG_20130727_115550_615Pam Joyce is an Associate at the Larchmont Houlihan Lawrence office. She is always  ebullient and willing to lend a hand to anyone in need –  even though her schedule is a tough one between children, her real estate profession and charities! On Saturday, July 27th, 2013, Pam volunteered in the “ 2013 Swim Across America” local challenge which started at the Larchmont Yacht Club.

Pam participated with 10 other swimmers in  “Team Cohen” so named after Talia Cohen, a Mamaroneck High School Student who tragically passed away a few years ago.

“Talia Cohen, died of cancer at age 16 in November 2002. Talia was an inspiration to everyone who knew her.  She fought her 19-month battle against cancer with courage and dignity. ”

The various teams could either swim in a one mile, up to a 4 mile race, starting at the Larchmont Yacht Club and ending at the Shore Club with the proceeds going to cancer research.  There were different ‘waves’ of swimmers  (so aptly named), and there were many kayakers helping along the way (a shout out here for  my friends  Andy and Fiona Yue!)..

This marked the 21st year the “Swim Across America” made swim history in fighting cancer, and as an aside over $1.1 Million was raised  last year.

Thank you Pam – thank you everyone..

Larchmont is GREAT!
