Century 21 Laffey Assoc. to market Mariner's Walk

Mariner's Walk townhomes, located in Historic Oyster Bay Hamlet, are selling. Mariner's Walk occupancy is now at a "baker's dozen," leaving approximately 50% of the residences available for sale. Renaissance Realty Services selected Century 21 Laffey Associates to handle the marketing and sales of the newly constructed townhomes in mid-December; the assignment is the newest for Laffey Assoc., Long Island's premier family-owned and operated real estate firm and part of a partnership with Renaissance Realty Services LLC to market several premier properties within the Hamlet. Mariner's Walk is nestled in the historic waterfront Hamlet known for its oysters and as the historic home of Theodore Roosevelt. These luxury townhome residences offer a carefree lifestyle chock full of amenities nestled in the waterfront hamlet known for its oysters and as the historic home of Theodore Roosevelt. Given the new 2009 Obama Stimulus package and first time home buyer credits - townhome buyers qualify too - it's a win-win situation for everyone. Mariners Walk is the newest, most desirable community in the Hamlet. Bright and spacious, home sizes start at a generous 1,800 s/f, and feature top-of-the-line amenities including hardwood flooring, gourmet kitchens, marble baths and heated 2-car garages, and as an added bonus, many homes are equipped with elevators (purchasers have the option to add elevators on all homes). The elegant clubhouse serves as the community's hub with a fitness center, tasteful living room, classic card room and full catering kitchen. For entertainment and quality cuisine, it's only a short stroll into the heart of town where boutique shopping and fine dining is plentiful. The allure of living at Mariner's Walk is certainly obvious from the sound of its outspoken residents. One in particular, when asked about her experience living at Mariner's Walk responded, "I like living at Mariner's Walk because it's so conveniently located, only 15 minutes away from my office and more importantly a short stroll to the beach, restaurants and shops!" said Susan Accardo. "What I love most about Mariner's Walk is that its maintenance free.  I don't have to worry about mowing the lawn, raking leaves or shoveling snow, all of it is done for me."
