Closed. 41 Tamarack Road, Mahopac Point, Lake Mahopac. $2,000,000. Over $200,000 above asking price.

This home was more than a listing. For nearly 50 years it was the heart of a family. The place where additions were built, traditions were made, 4th of July parties filled the waterfront and memories were created that will last a lifetime. When it came time to sell, this family deserved the very best outcome possible.

Like many special properties, this waterfront home inside the private gated Mahopac Point community was first explored off market. It is a natural first step for a family home with decades of history. When the seller decided it was time to bring it to market with a full professional campaign, I was hired based on my marketing plan and my familiarity with this property and this community.

I got to work. I did my homework on every aspect of this home before it ever hit the market. When we launched, we launched right. Professional photography, cinematic video, a custom marketing campaign built with the latest tools and technology, and targeted outreach to agents and buyers across the region designed to find the right buyer, not just any buyer.

Our first weekend brought a full schedule of showings and multiple offers. We closed today at $2,000,000, over 11% above the asking price.
This is what happens when a home is marketed the way it deserves to be. The right buyers are out there. It is my job to find them.

If you are thinking about selling your home in Mahopac, on Lake Mahopac, or anywhere in Westchester and Putnam County, I would love to show you what a strategic marketing campaign can do for you.

Some listings just need a fresh set of eyes.

581 Barrett Hill Road in Mahopac NY had been listed twice before. It never sold. I repositioned it, built a full marketing campaign including professional photography, drone aerials, video and a multi-platform social strategy and listed it higher than both previous listings at $675,000.

Multiple offers. Closed at $680,000 last week.

My seller was phenomenal. The buyers were lovely. Their agents were wonderful partners. The right people make all the difference.

Thinking about selling in Putnam County or the Hudson Valley? Let’s talk.

This is what mornings look like from 581 Barrett Hill Road.

For private acres in Mahopac. Elevated, private and surrounded by the Hudson Valley.

The primary suite opens directly onto the deck. The ridgeline is right there every morning.

Nearly 4000 square feet of finish living space. Room for everything.

The porch that sets the Pace. This is what Hudson Valley living actually looks like.

China pawn at Sedgewood club. One of the clearest lakes in New York. Minutes away.

Ok to use this?

Congratulations to my buyers, Michael and Alexandra, on closing on their first home today, a condo in Hunter’s Glen!

This one means a lot because it’s a good reminder of why representation matters. When we met, they’d already been searching for almost a year on their own. After a buyer consultation, we rethought their search criteria and got to work together.

Our first offer didn’t get accepted, but instead of getting discouraged, they trusted the process, took my advice on how to compete in this market, and we adjusted our approach from there.

That decision made all the difference. We got the next offer accepted and closed today.

Hunter’s Glen is one of the more desirable condo communities in the area and has held its value well over time, so this is a great first home to build equity in.

Congratulations, Michael and Alexandra! It was an honor helping you through this!

Most people spend their whole lives choosing between the home they want and the life they want. This is the property where that choice disappears.

26 Averill Drive is a post-and-beam residence in the private Averill Estates community in Mahopac. Nearly 5,000 square feet of living space with the scale, warmth and craftsmanship that simply does not exist in what is being built today.

Cross the lane. Own the lake. A full outdoor kitchen at the water. Multiple entertaining platforms. A floating dock as the sun sets. It does not feel like an extension of the home. It feels like the rest of it.

Listed at $1,375,000. Showings begin Thursday, May 14. Scheduling is open now.
