I've lived in the New London/Lake Sunapee area since
1972, and, along with my husband, Bill (who died in 1998 of
cancer), raised our two sons, plus several generations of sheep,
pigs, and Labrador retrievers on our 1779 farm just outside of town. 

Outside of running my business and raising a family over
the last 45 years, I have also volunteered on countless local and statewide
boards including the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests; the
Ausbon Sargent Land Preservation Trust Board (Chairman for 2 years) and Lands
Committee; the Pleasant LakeProtective
Association, Lake Sunapee Protective Association (Board, 2004; and on its Land
Protection Committee); the New London Historical Society, the Lake Sunapee Area
Chamber of Commerce, The WFK Ice House Foundation Board (The Ice House Museum)
as Secretary/Treasurer; the Citizens' Advisory Council, Town of New London),
the President's Advisory Council of Colby-Sawyer College, and the Colby-Sawyer
College Community Forum; and, most recently, the Board of Trustees of Kearsarge
Council on Aging.

For fun, the thing I love most is to spend time with my
grown-up family (both sons live in town)-and especially my three
grandchildren, but I also enjoy trying to keep up with my substantial perennial
gardens, dubbing around the "farm", reading, attending local events,
getting outside in the winter and summer, but especially spending time during
the summer boating and beaching with family and friends at our special
spot on Pleasant Lake. 

But I also have always had fun in my chosen career. I began
my commitment to real estate in 1983, with Country Houses, a
well-respected local firm, which had been purchased from the original owner by
a close friend. In 1987, I moved on to start my own company with a partner
and one secretary. Six years later, we affiliated with Coldwell Banker to bring
the benefit of an international brand with an excellent reputation to our
clients.  For about 20 years, that proved
to have been a good decision. During most of that time, I was the sole owner of
the company (Milestone Real Estate, Inc.), and by 2016 had built it to its
current number of 7 energetic sales associates/brokers and 3/4 support
personnel.

2016 brought some very exciting
changes. That fall, “The Best Team in Town” became
even better…through the acquisition of the marketing rights to a Better Homes
& Gardens Real Estate franchise for New London and the Greater Lake Sunapee Regionthrough
a strategic partnership with Better Homes and Gardens/The Masiello Group. With
a 33+ office network, The Masiello Group is the largest real estate company north
of Boston.

For more than 90
years Better Homes and Gardens® has been the most trusted source of inspiration
for all things related to the home. BHG Real Estate carries the brand across
all aspects of our daily lives and creates instant positive recognition. We
feel that BHGRE’s reputation and national exposure and The Masiello Group’s
strength in northern New England create a perfect combination with our local
experience and expertise. Having
