This week’s Fashionable Friend Friday is someone with great vision. He seamlessly turned a tired home into something stunning, and I had to share it with you. Michael McCooey took a home that had not been touched for ages and created an polished gem full of treasures. All of his pieces, he curated himself, over years of hunting on the antique scene, so much so that everything has its own story. But really, how many times have you heard that a house has “good bones” but could not see past the dated paneling, tiling, and antiquated overall feel? Well, Michael was able to see beyond those things and turn his own home into a turn-key magazine worthy residence. He fell in love with the view of his club’s beloved golf course, in the home’s backyard, and knew that the inside could easily match the outside, with some TLC. The end result will leave you in awe of Michael’s talent. The best part, Michael is a Real Estate Salesperson with Houlihan Lawrence, here in Rye. Are you looking for your next home? Are you in love with the charm of an older house but cannot see past the dated doorway? Well, Michael is for you. For more information on his current listings or to contact Michael, click HERE.
