Weekend Escapes

Introduction

Connecticut is experiencing a renaissance as a second home destination, but the region has long lured movers, shakers and tastemakers northward from New York City.

It’s a story as old as our own. Our founder, William Van Duzer Lawrence, arrived as a weekender nearly 130 years ago when he purchased Prescott Farm in Bronxville, NY, building a summer home where his family could retreat while work was completed on the Fifth Avenue mansion he commissioned from legendary architect Richard Morris Hunt. Taken by the area’s unique beauty and realizing the potential in sharing it with others, he developed the remainder of the farm into Lawrence Park, inspired by Barbizon in France’s Fontainebleau Forest. Lawrence established a Manhattan sales office and built a hotel, The Gramatan, where urban dwellers could sample the area’s relaxed lifestyle.

Over a century later, the draws of our area haven’t changed, and nobody knows the journey here better than Houlihan Lawrence.

From Greenwich to Westport, virtually every lifestyle is possible in easy reach of the city. Let us show you the way.

The Lifestyles

EQUESTRIAN

If life is a riding lane, you’re going to ride it. (That’s our song, and we’re sticking to it).

L O C AVO R E

If you are what you eat, you’re authentic, unspoiled and locally sourced—even if you’re not a native plant.

W AT E R F R O N T E R

The rippling of tides, the tranquility of still water, the salted air.

For you, h2o is the only way to go.

VILL AG ER

You’re a natural conversationalist who loves walking, windowshopping and having everything nearby.

TRAILBLAZER

You think big and control your own destiny. You’re at peace in nature’s embrace, inspiring your ascent towards greatness.
