Guided by Expertise

WHERE THE HORIZON BEGINS

I specialize in helping buyers and sellers navigate the unique world of Block Island real estate, where waterfront transactions often require far more expertise than a typical mainland sale. From breathtaking oceanfront bluffs overlooking the Atlantic to private family compounds and moorings along the Great Salt Pond, I understand both the value and the responsibility that come with owning island property.

My in-depth knowledge of coastal regulations, including CRMC requirements, mooring rights, historic district considerations, setback regulations, and dune conservation standards, helps ensure every transaction is handled smoothly and with confidence. Whether you're purchasing a waterfront retreat or selling a cherished island property, I provide the guidance needed to protect your investment and make the experience as seamless and rewarding as possible.

Carollen was wonderful to work with. She knows the area and definitely went above and beyond in helping us as we were from out of town.
