About Us
 |
Seventy years ago Jeanne Garr bought the Artemus Ward Estate from Harvard University. Sixty Years ago we bought our property on Midway Road. Fifty years ago we moved to Shelter Island with four kids, two dogs, a cat and a boat. Forty years ago I started selling real estate at Jean Garr's office. I am now the oldest living real estate broker on Shelter Island, come see me and I will fill in all the blanks for you, lots to tell and lots to sell!!!!! Ironically when we first arrived on SI, Jack decided to build a spec house. After touring the island everywhere, I mean "everywhere" we decided definitely have to buy a building lot in Shorewood. Of course met up with Jeanne Garr at this office. Yes she would sell us a lot, but not in Shorewood, as she had a waiting list of buyers. She sold one lot a year when her tax bill came to pay that bill!!!!!!! Such a great business woman, so she showed us a lot on Burns Road across from the Presbyterian Manse and next to Klen's International Airport, the rest is history and here I am back in the same office we first set foot in to buy property, only now 45 years later selling it.!!!!!!! Stop buy anytime. There is much, much more to this story!!!!! |
