Welcome to Movie Monday, when I feature the sets from films that we love for the fabulous houses in them. Today I’m showing you photos from the 1995 romantic comedy “Sabrina,” with Harrison Ford and Julia Ormond. Sabrina lives over the garage on the Larrabee estate with her father, who is the family chauffeur. (Their stone cottage is charming, too, as you’ll see.) She’s got a crush on David Larrabee, the younger son, but he doesn’t seem to know she exists.
After Sabrina returns from an internship at Paris Vogue–now grown up, gorgeous, and glam–she finally turns his head. But David’s older brother Linus (Harrison Ford) is determined to keep them apart so that David will go ahead with his engagement to a billionaire’s daughter. As Linus spends more time with Sabrina, however, he finds himself falling in love with her and has to reconsider the belief that money is the only thing in life worth fighting for.
An aerial view of the Larrabee estate (above). It really does look like something out of a fairy tale in this photo (below):
There’s an outdoor pool:
And an indoor pool:
Indoor tennis courts, and outdoor tennis courts (I took these photos while watching the movie, which is why there are some names from the credits on some of them):
A solarium:
Sabrina inside the solarium at night, waiting for David to meet her (but he never arrives):
The main hall of the house:
Sabrina–before her Parisian makeover and looking an awful lot like Ugly Betty with a bad wig and giant glasses–sneaks into the house, intent on finding David and saying goodbye before leaving for her internship in France:
Love the porthole window as in the stairway:
The upstairs landing:
David’s room, where Sabrina goes to confess her love to him, only to realize it is Linus with his back to her in the closet:
David Larrabee (Greg Kinnear in his first major acting role–he was known as the host of “Talk Soup” on the E! Channel before this) in the pool room:
Linus schemes to keep David away from Sabrina, fearing that a broken engagement will mean a broken merger between the two families:
Linus greets Sabrina at the back door. You can see a view of the water in the distance:
Linus argues with David in the library, insisting that he stay away from Sabrina:
Another view of the library, when David introduces his fiancee Elizabeth (Lauren Holly) to his mother Maude (Nancy Marchand–also known as Tony Soprano’s mom) and Linus:
Another view of the round window, from above:
The upstairs landing where David’s nurse is posted while he recovers from an unfortunate incident with a couple of champagne glasses:
The servants in the kitchen (note Paul Giamatti on the right–now known as John Adams–in a part so small that if you blink, you miss him!):
I just love the way they designed this kitchen to look like it’s been around for decades:
Sabrina has lived with her father in the stone cottage above the garage her entire life:
Tom took the job as a chauffeur because it gave him plenty of time to read. His home is filled with books:
Sabrina’s father, Tom (John Wood), crosses the reflecting pond in front of the stone cottage they live in:
Sabrina’s room:
Note the Dutch door on the left:
Another shot of Sabrina’s room as she unpacks from Paris:
To get Sabrina away from David, Linus flies her to their vacation home on Martha’s Vineyard on the pretext of hiring her to take photos of it before he puts it on the market:
The table is set for a romantic lunch that Linus hopes will help Sabrina forget all about his younger brother:
This movie is full of eye candy, from the Larrabee estate to the stone cottage over the garage and this charming vacation home on Martha’s Vineyard. If you could live in any one of them, which would you choose?
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that the original movie version of “Sabrina,” which premiered in 1954 and featured Audrey Hepburn in the title role, is also a fun one to watch.

It’s a GREAT movie which I love – and unfortunately do not own!
Those pictures of the house are just incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the fact you also mentioned the original ‘Sabrina’. I remember watching that when I was a little girl. Having just joined Facebook, it was great to be able to add another friend to my list.
Look forward to seeing which movie you choose next to show us

I can’t believe I have never seen this movie! The house and the scenery are just beautiful, and of course Harrison Ford and Greg Kinnear are pretty nice looking as well! Thanks for the giveaway!
Hi, me again, just realised I didn’t say which house I liked. Would have to be the summer house at Martha’s Vineyard. So crisp and sunny.
boysmum2’s last blog post..The Perfect Sleep
Wow, what a give-a-way bonanza, Julia!
I loved much in both movies. I think Bogart was too old for his role, but loved Audrey Hepburn. It’s too bad we can’t mix and match Hepburn w/Harrison Ford and Greg Kinnear (who I think is the REAL eye candy in this movie).
I wonder where the house for the exteriors actually is.
I am such a huge fan of this movie! I’m shocked I don’t own it yet! Maybe I will soon (fingers crossed!
WOW the pictures of this house made me dream it was mine and how awesome that would be. Thanks for showing them. The movie would be nice to watch for the first time, never seen it before. Thanks.
I loved the original Sabrina – haven’t seen the new one yet. And, oh my God, those photos! Drool. Thank you for the giveaway.

Just watched Sabrina…when was it, this past weekend (can’t remember cr%p!). Thanks for the photos, it gives you a chance to savor each room — even pausing the DVR isn’t as good as seeing a closeup picture! HOH is a new subscription on my Google Reader (LOVE Google Reader!!!).
I have never seen this movie before either but it looks good. I have an obsession with old stone houses and cottages. Thought I was the only one with a home obsession, LOL

I love Long Island Estates, at least as much as I can remember from the 70′s when I was there. Beautiful!
Man,what a house! I am not sure you can even call that a house. Estate maybe, but no way is it a house!!!! Gorgeous! Sabrina is a great movie! Thanks for the chance!

I have never seen the movie before. I would love to win it and watch it
I have never seen this movie, so I would love to win!
I’m so glad I’m not the only person who falls in love with the houses in the movies. This one is beautiful. So far my obsessions are the house from the Home Alone, Funny Farm, I searched for the other cottage from The Holiday and found out it was set.
Oddly enough, I haven’t seen either of the movies. Which is odd indeed, because i love Harrison Ford.
Gorgeous photos!! I would love to win the Amazon gift cert.

I never saw the remake of “Sabrina” (though I’m a big fan of the original), but seeing the stills from the film and the breathtaking home at which it was shot, I’ll definitely have to check it out. Being an avid tennis player, my favorite photo of course was the one of the indoor court — that would be a dream come true!!
I’d live in the poolhouse… well at least that’s where I’d spend most of my time.
Thanks for the giveaway.

Another cool movie home is in “The Family Stone.”

Did you notice Greg Kinnear looks pantless in the photo at the pool table? I had to get closer to the screen, then I was bummed (just teasing).
I have actually not seen Sabrina but I have enjoyed many Harrison Ford & Greg Kinnear movies in the past.
One could only dream of living in one of the homes/mansion you shared with us.
I have travel a lot of the United States but have never made it to the upper east, it is a dream of mine someday to get there.
Thank you for letting us peek and for the giveaway, may you have a picture perfect day Hooked on Houses.
I’d love to win this giveaway! Sabrina is a great movie.
I am so hooked on houses I started a B & B and now have 4 of them. I am always looking for new ways to decorate them! I love the Martha Vineyards house. My daughter lived and worked their for a summer while she went to culinary school in the east. You have a very interesting site and I will be posting it on my blog. (at least I will ask my daughter to it is on her blog…mysuzyhomemaker.com) It was amazing seeing the stills of the picture..thank you for the look!

A fairy tale palace, indeed. I’d take the Amazon card please. Thanks for the contest.
This film I love because its relates to my life. I love the music and the film so much.
The house pictured here is called Salutations and it was owned by Junius Spencer Morgan, the son of JP Morgan. It’s on East Island in Glen Cove. I’m trying to find which house in Glen Cove was used for the original Sabrina, the one with Audrey Hepburn. Any advice?
This is one of the most beautiful mansions I’ve seen in movies.
What a great pix gallery!
Do you have details on the mansion: such as,
Where is that mansion exactly? I mean the address?
Can we visit? is it inhabited? Is it in GLen Cove, NY?
Is it the Salutation Mansion/House?
I think these photos of the Larrabee’s mansion must have been filmed in several mansions.
I just watched the movie again, for the 5th time, I think.
Great location, great movie, great story.
Peace and Happiness

This has become one of my favorites! I own the soundtrack and LOVE the music, it reaks of class and elegance, just like the film and matches the lifestyle we’d all love to live.
Hi Julia,
Your blog is one of my absolute favorites….I can get lost so easily I have to pace myself. I was wondering if you had any pictures from the Larabees outdoor annual party, or the one from Maude’s birthday, or where I could find some. You are amazing, and I know you are very busy. This is a shot in the dark question.
Enjoy your day….and I will enjoy Hooked on Houses.
Maryrose
