You will rarely hear me talk negatively on the web about any house in Greenwich.  I'm not saying that there aren't bad listings and bad houses, I just don't think this is the right venue.  I just won't mention a house if I'm not a fan.  If you want my opinion about a house I'm not talking about please feel free to email me for a one on one [...]

I'm not sure if this constitutes child labor, but the Greenwich Library is looking for help in decorating the Children's Room.  "Drop-in any time to make paper chains and decorate paper gingerbread people. We will display your artwork through the new year."

This is one of my favorite listings in Greenwich. Beautiful turn of the century home.  Has been abandoned for a little while and is now in the midst of "bank issues".  With a little love, I think it could be brought back beautifully. I love the bones.  So much potential with 3rd floor and basement buildouts.

I'm a big fan of North Mianus.  Its a wonderful neighborhood with all of the standard Greenwich benefits (taxes, facilities, etc..).  11 Amherst sold today for $738k and I think that's a great deal.  The design might be a little controversial, but you get a full 4 bedrooms, two full bathrooms, over 2,000 sqft of space and are now living in [...]
