    Our team had a fantastic time at our short film shoot at Greg's 70's Time Capsule. From the pre-booking (the owner Greg granted a guided in-person tour, responded within minutes by text to all our questions ~by the way, the location is even more impressive in-person than online~) to the shoot (Greg was hospitable ~he put a pot of coffee on for us~, accessible, helpful, accommodating) we knew we were in good hands. In an industry where property owners and reps can be nightmarish, getting to work with Greg and film in his meticulously preserved property ~everywhere you turn on both floors of this authentic gem is a reminder-of-the-times~ proved one of the best choices we made on this shoot. Highly recommend.

This property is a mid-century 70's time-capsule perfect for film, production and print. A completely preserved house 75 miles due north of Manhattan (right on the New York border); it's the ideal creative space for any retro-project! It was built and furnished in 1972 and for the most part, has remained unchanged since then. It’s more than 1600 square feet of space with mostly original decor intact; flooring, carpeting, wallpaper, etc. It features a fantastic slate floored playroom complete with wood paneling, stocked wet-bar and stone fireplace; 2 vintage tiled bathrooms (one pink, one blue), 2 bedrooms (with original furniture and even some 70's clothes), large oak floored living room (with fireplace, sliding glass doors, couch, chairs, lamps & tables), oak floored dining room (with more sliding glass doors) and kitchen (with original working refrigerator, oven, light fixtures, counters, pots, pans, plates). There’s also a secure 20’ x 24’ empty two-car garage perfect for staging / storage. This home boasts a large wrap-around deck and flagstone patio as well! Brick and stone exterior situated on heavily wooded, private 3 acres. A hidden gem oozing with style!
