From Manhattan to Upstate New York

While she hopes to host friends for gatherings and dinner parties upstate, Cecily views the space as a “retreat” above all else. “I love the surrounding outdoors just as much as the interior,” she explains. “I enjoy seeing the greenery through the windows, and the fact that cell service is spotty up here — it gives me an excuse not to answer texts or calls right away.”

Most importantly, Cecily feels perfectly at ease in her two new homes. “No matter what’s happening with work, my homes make me feel really happy,” she concludes. “I can show up to my home upstate or my city apartment, and each one looks and feels like me. I’m immediately comfortable.”
