The Premise
You already live in New York several weeks a year
The only thing missing is the home. The Programme exists to bring it into being — and to keep it waiting for you, ready, ever after.
Most of our owners did not set out to buy. They came for a month, in one of the Maison's residences, and noticed something by the second week: they were not staying in New York anymore. They were living here. The Programme is the path from that realisation to a front door of your own — with every step handled by the same house.
The First Pillar
I.Acquire
Our in-house brokerage finds, negotiates and closes — quietly, on your behalf. From the first shortlist to the final signature, the search is run by people who know these buildings by name.
You give us the brief — building, block, light, view — and decide only what matters: which home is yours. Off-market and on, the Maison does everything else, answerable to you alone.
The Second Pillar
II.Manage
Cleaning, maintenance, staffing and the stocking of your belongings — the home kept immaculate year-round, ready for whichever week the city calls you back.
And, only if you wish, the letting of the home for short-to-medium stays while you are away — with the yield to you, and the scheduling to us. You will never manage a calendar. That is precisely the point of ours.
From First Night to Owner
The life of a pied-à-terre
You already live in New York several weeks a year. The only thing missing is the home. This is how it comes to exist — and how it waits for you, ready, ever after.
The Beginning
A month in residence
It begins with a stay in one of our managed residences. Keys at the door, your preferences noted, a home that works from the first evening.
The Realisation
The hotel was never the answer
You are here too often, and too at home, to keep checking in. What looked like a travel inconvenience was an ownership question all along.
The Search
We acquire, discreetly
Our in-house brokerage takes the brief — building, block, light, view — then finds, negotiates and closes. You decide; we do everything else.
The Making of a Home
Designed, furnished, yours
Designers, architects and craftsmen — assembled and directed by the Maison. Your belongings arrive and are placed. It is not an apartment anymore.
Every Arrival
You simply come home
The lights on, the kitchen stocked, everything precisely as you left it. No check-in, no key handover — a front door that knows you.
While You Are Away
Cared for — and earning
We keep the home immaculate year-round. If you wish, we let it for short-to-medium stays: the yield is yours, the scheduling and worry are ours.
One relationship, start to finish
— acquisition, design and care, under one roof.
The Standard of the House
Your belongings, kept as you left them
Before anyone else crosses the threshold, your belongings are catalogued, wrapped and reserved. Before you land, they are returned — the books to the nightstand, the photographs to the mantel, your coat by the door.
This is not a rental unit that happens to be yours. It is your home, and we treat it that way.
The Programme begins the way every good ownership story does — with a month in a home that already works.Step one, without obligation
Begin the Conversation
A home for every season
Every acquisition begins the same way: a conversation about how you live, and how New York fits within it. Write to the Maison; we answer personally.
