Saturday Real Estate Stalking

A very stylist friend who also has a knack for renovations and outstanding home decor recently renovated a gorgeous New York City apartment on Park Ave.  It has just been put on the market for rent.  This property was once three separate apartments that have since been joined into this 10 room, 4 bed, 4 bath home.  The building is called the Beekman and it was built in 1927, in the Italian Renaissance style. Woody Allen has an office in the Beekman and you can see him coming and going all week long!!  It is one of the premier, most prestigious buildings in Manhattan.  But, of course I am partial to this location, my parents had a small pied-à-terre here and it brings back many fun memories for me.  For more info on this listing click HERE

Beach House Chic For Less Part 2

This week we have found some great beach house chic looks at Ikea.  My friend recently purchased the Orb light for her renovated home and reminded me how “right on” Ikea can be. From artwork to modern table top items, Ikea is one shop stopping.  Now all we need is a beach cottage to house all our new treasures!

Saturday Real Estate Stalking

The house where F. Scott Fitzgerald started writing  the Great Gatsby is on the market.  The estate is located in Great Neck, NY,  the area that inspired the tale of Gatsby and the lavish mansion and lifestyle in which he lived.  The Fitzgerald themselves threw wild parties, in this home (which has since been renovated) during the 2 years that they rented from 1922-1924.  A story goes that a maid found Mr & Mrs. Ftizgerald passed out, fully clothed, on the lawn, the next morning after driving their Rolls Royce back from a night of partying in New York City.  Oh, the good life!!!!!
