Now that awards season and the Oscars have come and gone, it’s time to catch up and watch some of the films you may have missed when they were in the theaters. Between the variety of on-demand video services and the proliferation of in-home theaters, it’s easier than ever to enjoy movies from the comfort of your own home.  Many of the home theaters showcased in our luxury properties for sale replicate a true movie theater experience. Here are a few of our media rooms.

Sky Blue Farm Theater1 300x234 Award Winning Media Rooms

There’s plenty of room for a premiere at Sky Blue Farm in Millbrook, where a carriage house features a wet bar, snack bar and home theater with stadium-seating.

LLS: Committed to a Cure

Each year, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) hosts “Light the Night Walk” events in communities across the country. Teams of families, friends, co-workers and corporations come together to raise funds and bring help and hope to people battling blood cancers.

Screen Shot 2013 02 21 at 11.03.31 AM 300x145 LLS: Committed to a Cure

Earlier this month, the Westchester/Hudson Valley Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society held their annual awards dinner to honor individuals, teams and sponsors who helped raise a whopping $850,000 for our local chapter.  As a corporate sponsor of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Light the Night event, Houlihan Lawrence would like to congratulate the thousands of volunteers and supporters who participated in such a successful event!

Approximately every four minutes, one person in the United States is diagnosed with a blood cancer. Leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma are the most commonly known blood cancers, but there are a host of other diseases that are also blood cancers, all of which afflict individuals of any age. Chances are you know someone – a family member, friend, or colleague – who has been effected by a blood cancer and it is a cause that is near and dear to Houlihan Lawrence and its employees.

Sixty years ago, a diagnosis of blood cancer was fatal. Now, thanks to decades of research advanced by LLS and others, people are winning their battles against blood cancers. LLS have made a significant difference in patients’ lives and the mission continues until there’s a cure. The goal of the Light the Night Walk for the Westchester/Hudson Valley Chapter of LLS is to raise $1 million in 2013 and Houlihan Lawrence is proud to play a role in helping them achieve that goal. As a longtime sponsor, advocate, and friend, we are committed to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society as they fight the good fight to find a cure.

House Profile: Millbrook Lofts

Tags: , ,      Categories: Buying, Dutchess

When real estate agents boast about a property’s location, don’t they mean to highlight a home’s “proximity?” A place that’s close enough to easily access not only the things we need, but the things that make us our most happiest too?

Close your eyes and travel to Millbrook, one of Dutchess County’s most picturesque and esteemed towns revered for its cultural elegance and world-renowned equestrian events. A stone’s throw away from the Taconic State Parkway and the Metro-North Hudson line, one could easily take a day-trip into New York City or choose to relax amongst the quietude.

Picture the village itself, a small-town main street dotted with local retail shops, fine dining venues and historical landmarks that bring Millbrook’s new-age mentality and old-school charm together. The village gives way to breathtaking farmland and a beautiful natural setting, as its located just east of the Hudson River’s midpoint. Each year, the world’s best compete at the Millbrook Horse Trials and Fitch’s Corner Horse Trials, two events that put mastery and excellence on center stage.

mb1 300x200 House Profile: Millbrook Lofts

Now open your eyes. You’re standing within the walls of a loft, a loft similar to those seen in any major city with high ceilings, exposed brick and spacious windows. But when you look outside these windows, you notice groves of trees, rolling hills and earthy quietness not experienced in any sort of city setting.

The Millbrook Lofts present this loft-style living reminiscent of those commonplace in any large metro—but they offer the opportunity for a quieter lifestyle, allowing you to determine the pace of your day. Currently, eight loft-style condominium homes are up for sale, all ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 square feet/one- to two-bedroom loft units.

To see this picture in real-time, contact the Houlihan LawrenceMillbrook office at 845-677-6161. To find out more about Millbrook, visit the Community Pages portion of our website.
