The Week Before Christmas

This is the week when everything softens—holiday strolls winding down, last-minute shopping complete, and that particular quiet settling over our communities as everyone prepares for Christmas. It’s also the week when we pause to say thank you. Thank you for trusting us as your Community Connection throughout 2025. Thank you for making this region what it is—beautiful, welcoming, and home. From our family to yours, we wish you a holiday season filled with warmth, joy, and cherished moments with loved ones.

Even as the holidays arrive, the market keeps delivering. Three significant closings this week tell the story: a mid-century modern Deck House with mountain views ($625K), a 127-acre Hudson Valley farm estate with five rental homes ($1.4M), and a historic 1830s Goshen farmhouse on 26 acres ($760K). Featured properties include Canton’s modern sustainable home with studio and views on 9.3 acres, plus Salisbury’s country estate with indoor pool on 10 private acres. From $625K to $1.775M, the year ends with momentum and quality.

As 2025 closes and 2026 approaches, we’re grateful for every client, colleague, and friend who makes what we do so meaningful. Merry Christmas from Elyse, Elyse Harney Morris, and the entire team. Here’s to a wonderful holiday and an exciting new year ahead.
