Ken Beaugrand was relaxed and

happy as he took a seat at the

spacious conference table upstairs in

his new office. The year has had an

exciting start for Beaugrand, whose

Nantucket Real Estate business

joined officially on January 3 with

Atlantic East Real Estate to become

Atlantic East/Nantucket Real Estate.

“There will be one presence on

LINK and in all the ads, and one

office at 5 North Water Street,” he

explained.

In addition to that news,

Beaugrand was elected President of

the Nantucket Association of Real

Estate Brokers as of January 1. He

previously served as NAREB’s

President for 6 years, then continued

on its executive committee and was

Vice-President for the last two years.

The tide turned in 2010. Four years of decline in

the real estate market gave way last year to

increases of more than 50 percent in transaction vol-

ume and value of sales. The island remains far off the

lofty heights of 2005 when sales approached $1.2

billion, but weathering the recession, the market felt

much-needed relief in 2010.

Transactions rose about 53 percent from 238 in 2009

to 364 in 2010. The dollar value of those sales jumped

almost 60 percent from $435 million, the market’s

worst showing since 2003, to $694 million. Average

price crept up about 4 percent from $1.82 million to

about $1.9 million, while the median price fell almost 9

percent from $1.175 million to $1.073 million.

Thinking Problems

According to a 2005 Reuters news article, David Lynch — director of, among other

things, the 1990’s sensation Twin Peaks — had himself a plan to create instant world

peace. It seems that Mr. Lynch wanted to start a foundation with the goal of raising $7 bil-

lion, which he figured was about the price tag for global harmony. It’s a noble goal, to say

the least, so I’m not going to disparage his idealistic undertakings.

Oh, wait. Yes, I am.

Lynch didn’t want to use this ungodly sum of cash to get rid of weapons of mass

destruction or finance political reforms or anything like that. Nope. He wanted to get

together 8,000 practitioners of transcendental meditation to create what he called “a uni-

fied field of stress-free brain waves over the earth.”

Some days, it’s just too hard to pass up these little gems.

Let’s look at all the things that are wrong with this idea, shall we? First off, I admit to

not being the world’s foremost authority on transcendental meditation, but I did once go

to a Buddhist temple. And part of the whole Buddhist thing is that money isn’t the be-all,

end-all that so many non-Buddhists think it is. So for starters, why do these meditators

need $875,000 each to think about world peace? Who knew transcendental meditation

paid so well?

But I digress. Let’s move past the money. Transcendentalists pride themselves on their

ability to detach their minds from the whole process of thinking. So in essence, they don’t

think. So these very well-paid people are going to think their collective way to world

peace by not thinking. They’re going to create stress-free brainwaves (read: “thoughts”)

without thinking. Makes sense, right? I mean, you wouldn’t want these people to be doing

something simple like thinking by thinking, especially given how much they’re getting

paid, right?

Here’s the thing. I’m really not here to make fun of these people. That’s only one part

of why I’m here. Another part of why I’m here is to illustrate a point, which this whole

debacle illustrates pretty well without too much help from me, and that’s the idea that

thinking about a problem doesn’t make it go away.

Let me clarify a little. Of course there are problems that require thought to solve — this

is, after all, how we come up with solutions — but to my mind and in my experience,

there’s actually a little work that has to follow up the thinking process in order to get any

tangible results.

Let’s use your house as an example. We’ll do a little hypothetical here, and say that

you’ve got something at your house that needs to be repaired. Maybe the outside needs

reshingling, or you’ve got a leaking faucet in a bathroom, or the tile in your bathroom is

falling off the wall. Whatever the actual problem is doesn’t matter, so much for our pur-

poses here.

So you’ve got this problem that needs to be fixed, and you’ve got a couple of options

in terms of how to get that repair done. You can call me and pay me three-quarters of a

million dollars (which is a bargain, apparently) and I’ll come over and think about it. I’ll

think about it by not thinking about it, actually. I’ll think really hard about not thinking

about it. And then I’ll thank you for your contribution to my new Bentley, and on we go.

Or you can actually do something about it and hire a professional to do the job for you.

And while I’d love to bilk you blind without having to actually produce anything, I’m

going to have to go ahead and recommend hiring someone who has some semblance of

an idea of what they’re doing.

It never ceases to amaze me how specialized a lot of the tradespeople are out here on

Nantucket. No matter what your specific situation, it seems that there’s somebody in the

yellow pages who fits the bill exactly for what you’re seeking.

And speaking of thinking, one thing I’ve learned over the years is that the longer you

think about a problem, the longer you’re putting off actually getting it fixed. And that

delay almost always seems to lead to an increase in the severity of the problem. So since

we’ve got this whole New Year thing going on, why not make your own little new year’s

resolution to get those problems fixed this year. You might find that your thinking gets a

little less stressed-out. And you didn’t even have to go through hundreds of thousands of

dollars worth of transcendental meditation training for it.

I’ll just send you my bill in the morning. Happy New Year.

NEWS REPORT


That slip in the media did little to undercut the

enthusiasm for 2010’s turnaround.

“Everyone started to hold their breath in

2008,” said Edward Sanford, broker and princi-

pal at Great Point Properties. “This year, we

exhaled.”

How it happenedLooking back, three factors helped contribute

to the surge in the market, said Dalton Frazier,

president and co-principal at J Pepper Frazier

Co.: “Sellers were more realistic with their

prices; buyers had pent-up demand, and there are

low interest rates.”

Those realistic prices, recalibrated on account

of the recession, greased the skids for transac-

tions.

“Sellers realized these aren’t the boom years

anymore, and they needed to lower their prices

because assets across the board took a hit in the

recession,” Frazier said.

Market activity expedited that realization. “As

properties started selling at lower-than-peak

prices, we could go to the seller with hard evi-

dence,” Frazier said.

Likewise, buyers, who had been waiting for

deals, jumped in so as not to miss the bottom of

the market, which brokers say formed in late

summer 2009. With some of the “tremendous

uncertainty” about the island’s real estate market

and the national and global economies dispelled,

buyers hit on both ends of the pricing spectrum

in 2010, said Craig Hawkins, a broker at Maury

People/Sotheby’s International.

“The high-end was very strong,” Hawkins

said, “and there was a lot of activity in the low-

end, partially to do with some short sales.”

The middle of the market, what Sanford pegs

at $2.5 million to $6 million, continued to be

soft, with comparatively little movement.

“Anecdotally, those buyers have been hurt

financially, and they’re not coming back as fast,”

Sanford said. “But I think they will.”

Foreclosures, short sales and distress sales

played a role at the low-end. That they existed in

the market wasn’t a surprise to Hawkins. “This is

my third recession in real estate,” he said. “I’ve

seen it before. The wave was bound to crest.

There was just too much debt.”

Such situations have a way of gumming up the

works, Frazier said, with buyers continuing to

hold out for better deals. “I’d like to get those off

the market and get things moving again,” he

said.

Looking AheadKeeping things moving stands as the hope for

2011, but with some of the property backlog left

over from a stagnant 2009 now gone, the oppor-

tunity may be closing for getting a piece of

Nantucket at an off-peak price.

“There’s a very small window for buyers to

take advantage of — interest rates are low, and

there’s a good amount of inventory,” Hawkins

said. “But, again, the window’s small, and I

think we’ll see prices creeping back up between

March and July.”

Now, in other words, is a good time to buy.

“Prices have not firmed — really,” Sanford

said. “They’re certainly going to, but if we look

at what’s closing based on asking prices, buyers

are sort of still getting that 10-percent discount

off ask.”

In terms of what 2011 might bring, one only

has to rewind 12 months to see the difficulty in

making predictions.

“A year ago today, it wasn’t looking so hot,”

Frazier said, and early signs are pointing to an

extended run at recovery this year.

According to Frazier, who tracks the statistic,

less than 3 percent of island listings were under

contract in January 2010. A year later, that figure

is about 8.5 percent, due in part to developer’s

starting to build spec houses again, Frazier said.

Still, the real estate community remains, in

Sanford’s words, “guardedly optimistic” about

2011. A good year, he and Frazier agreed, would

be to equal 2010. A better year would be to

exceed it and get back closer to $700 million in

sales, nearer to the 2003-2010 average of about

$800 million in annual sales.

“Nantucket is a desirable place,” Sanford said.

“The demand for property here doesn’t go away.

It just gets pent up. People out there want to buy,

but they don’t feel comfortable buying at this

time. When the pendulum starts to swing the

other way, people will feel more comfortable,

and they’ll jump back into the market.”

As for another billion-dollar year, not so fast,

Hawkins said.

“I do think we have the potential over the long

haul to get back,” he said. “It won’t be this year,

although I think we’ll have another great year.”

role in the island industry since buying Nantucket Real

Estate from Curtis Barnes in 1995, Beaugrand had never

been involved in real estate until that time.

“We have lived all over the world,” Beaugrand said

of his wife of 41 years, Gussie, and their three children.

“Our eldest, Chris, was born in Switzerland, our daugh-

ter Samantha was born in Holland, and the youngest,

Jason, was born in Toronto, Canada.”

Beaugrand began his career life as a Wall Street

lawyer before spending 30 years in financial services.

He served as President of a Toronto life insurance com-

pany and ran the U.S. operations of Manulife Financial,

the company that purchased the Hancock firm a couple

years ago.

Beaugrand and his family started spending summers

on Nantucket more than 30 years ago, always staying in

the Wauwinet Crow’s Nest Cottages. In 1990 they

bought their Fair Street home and moved permanently

to the island in 1994. The following year he purchased

Nantucket Real Estate after determining it was the per-

fect next step for him.

“I had always been fascinated by real estate,” he

explained. “I understood it from the legal and finan-

cial sides and enjoyed interrelationships with people.

When we moved here, the real estate business

seemed a logical fit.”

Beaugrand recalls that when he bought Nantucket

Real Estate there were about 20 local realty agen-

cies, a number that grew to 37 as the sales boom

years continued.

“There is really no barrier to entry in our business.

The real estate business is a relationship business. When

the market is strong and people have good relationships

with their clients, there is a willingness to go out on your

own. When the market contracts, because they don’t

have a lot of overhead, they can stay in the business as

long as that’s not their sole source of revenue.”

Today, NAREB has 32 member offices. About three

years ago, Great Point Properties and Sanford Real

Estate joined forces as has Atlantic East and Nantucket

Real Estate, however, Beaugrand does not necessarily

see their actions as part of a movement.

“More than half are one or two-person offices,” he

noted. “Individual operations survive here, but the bulk

of the business is done by the larger offices, so it’s hard

to say if combining will be a trend. My reasoning [to

join the offices] was simple: Looking at the market

activity we need the skills the combined operation has to

be most effective. The marketing skills of (Atlantic East

co-owners) Penny (Dey) and Heidi (Drew) and the

internet presence of both offices is to our advantage.

Also, I respected the way they did business. It seemed

like a natural fit.”

It is a given that among Beaugrand’s list of changes

is the recent evidence that the real estate market, at least

on Nantucket, is rebounding. This is seen in a 43 percent

rise in sales comparing the 358 transactions in 2010 with

237 in 2009, along with a 47 percent jump in sales dol-

lar totals showing $689 million for 2010 against $434

million in 2009.

“That doesn’t mean prices will go up significantly,” he

was quick to say. “I see a very gradual movement in the

future. People are looking more to buy to have property

to enjoy rather than as an investment, and the greatest

change with that is having sellers realize that they must

sell at realistic prices. That has been a good thing because

it has created a fair market place in terms of both buyers

and sellers being educated about realistic values.”

The shifts Beaugrand has seen in the world of real

estate during his tenure reflect far more than rising and

falling prices and office volume. One of the major inno-

vations has been from paper to technology, he said, an

advancement that has increased the ability to share

information and diminish delays in that process. He fur-

ther stresses that trust between local agencies has

improved in the last 15 years and with it, an evolution of

professionalism Beaugrand terms “refreshing.” Finally,

and of great importance to him, Beaugrand appreciates

the growth in agent participation in community charita-

ble work.

“The time, energy and dedication to nonprofit causes

is remarkable, and very different than what I observed in

other places I have lived in the world,” he said. “The

people do it because they want to do it, not to put some-

thing on their resume. It is part of the caring in this com-

munity that is unique, in my experience.”

Beaugrand and his wife are no exception when it

comes to community giving. Beyond his enjoyment of

tennis, reading and spending time with friends,

Beaugrand is a Vice President and Trustee on the boards

of the Nantucket Historical Association and the

Nantucket Preservation Trust; he is a warden at St.

Paul’s Church; a member of The Rotary Club;

Chairman of the Community Preservation Committee;

and was recently elected to the Board of Governors of

The Westmoor Club. Gussie Beaugrand assists with

fundraising and is a board member of Palliative and

Supportive Care of Nantucket (formerly called Hospice

of Nantucket) and is on the board of the Nantucket

Community Music Center.

As he takes the reins of NAREB, Beaugrand looks

forward to leading a group he is proud to be part of.

Nevertheless, he has thoughts about how his role can

help improve the organization even more.

“I just want to make sure respect between members

continues and help foster the level of community partic-

ipation the members of NAREB have,” said Beaugrand.

“I want to continue to improve the level of technology

available to members and our clients, and through the

Property News, the Property Journal and the Yearbook,

present the most current, up-to-date listing of properties

available for sale on the island.”

Mary Lancaster moved to Nantucket 40 years ago afterspending several years as an advertising illustrator in NewYork City and Connecticut. Her 24-year journalism careerincludes work with the Inquirer & Mirror, The NantucketBeacon and The Nantucket Independent. She currently worksas a freelance writer.

Clark was shot down by German fighter planes

over Abbeville, France, in July 1942, and spent

nearly three years as a prisoner of war at Stalag

Luft III in what is now Poland, and was one of the

first Americans to be housed among British offi-

cers.

During the planning of the escape, which the

1963 film “The Great Escape” immortalized, Lt.

Col. Clark was dubbed “Big S” as head of tunnel

security. Although he helped move prisoners

through the three escape tunnels, codenamed Tom,

Dick and Harry, Lt. Col. Clark never got out, as

German prison guards spotted the 77th prisoner

emerging from a tunnel.

Stateside, the air force later promoted Clark to

Lieutenant General where, amidst various com-

mand postings, he purchased 16 Broadway in

’Sconset known as the Martin Box, the year “The

Great Escape” debuted. Clark’s 16-year ownership

of the Martin Box bears noting because of what the

current owner, Peter Krogh, found in the house

when he was moving in and, because of Krogh’s

coincidental profession.

“When you bought places like this, you bought

everything in it, right? General Clark was meticu-

lous,” Krogh said.

For Krogh, General Clark — who died in

March, 2010 at the age of 96 — left a written

inventory of the entire contents of the cottage and a

self-written history of the structure.

“He made the list of all the equipment in this

place. I mean, down to five paring knives, five

large carving knives, five plastic refrigerator or

freezer containers…six waste baskets, one fire

extinguisher, three bicycles…one beach jacket, one

step ladder, one 30-gallon garbage can, one baby

bicycle seat, one card table, one fishing pole, two

extra shower curtains, one framed map of old

’Sconset, one framed map of old Massachusetts, all

of the original furniture,” Krogh remarked.

Krogh moved into the Martin Box in turnkey

condition, using many of the General Clark’s for-

mer possessions. Five years later, he decided the

place needed a little work. At the time, Krogh was

the dean of students at Georgetown University’s

Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service in

Washington, D.C. and was using the Martin Box as

a summer retreat.

Working full-time, he couldn’t manage a major

renovation long distance, so he hired island builder

Sam Hill in 1984 for a light shoring up job. Hill

beefed up the original fieldstone footings, level-

ing the building on them, replacing rotting sills

and re-shingling the cottage. After all, Krogh’s

summer digs had always been in more modern

rented houses along Squam Road with such stan-

dard accoutrements as heat and insulation. The

move to a rustic ’Sconset cottage was, then, a bit of

stretch for him.

Finding nothing in Squam he could afford in

1979, Krogh visited the Martin Box with Dick

Denby of Denby Real Estate.

“And he said, ‘well, why don’t you have a look

at a cottage in ’Sconset.’ I said ‘look, I’m not a vil-

lage guy, I’m a water’s edge guy,” Krogh said. “I’m

not really interested in village life, I want to be out

on the water’s edge. So he said, ‘come on in, have

a look.’ So, he took me in here, and I saw the

Martin Box and I said, ‘yeah, I’ll buy it.”

But the more time he spent there, the more

Krogh wanted a real home away from home. That

meant hiring an architect, in this case, Graham

Goldsmith, and a builder, Bill Obremski, to convert

the old whaling cottage into a solid, weather-tight

home.

“In these cottages, it’s a little like camping out

and as soon as it gets cold, you start living in the

fireplace. So at a certain point in time you want to

stop living like a boy scout and stop living in the

fireplace, and with greater comfort and warmth,

said Krogh.

Origins of the Martin Box, the naming of which

no one has a reason for, are sketchy. It is known as

one of the whaling station houses built first as fish-

ing shacks — this one in 1720 — as places of shel-

ter for those fishing the shoals east of Nantucket.

General Clark wrote that Obediah Folger

acquired the land, on which the house sits, by either

purchasing it from his father, Barzillai Folger, or

inheriting it at the time of his death in 1790.

The current living room space with the fireplace,

10 feet tall at its peak, composed the original fish-

ing shack. The bedrooms, guest cottage, kitchen

space and covered porch were added at different

times throughout the property’s history.

Krogh’s palette for a year-round house was the

one-story whaling cottage that General Clark

described in his history as the original wort floor

plan in the front of the house, consisting of a small

living room with the tiny master bedroom suite, and

guest bedroom separated by a thin partition, both

behind a sliding door at the south end of this room.

At the north end, the original fireplace — onto

which Krogh said a brick façade was added in 1865

when a false ceiling was also installed over the liv-

ing room — and a den behind the chimney, with the

small kitchen in the next room. There was a bath-

room at the west end of the kitchen. West of the liv-

ing room was a dining area with another bedroom

beyond. Immediately north of the west bedroom

stood the guest cottage that Krogh had converted

into a tool shed attached to that side of the Martin

Box by a covered porch.

With the goal of keeping the original cottage

intact on the outside, but adding more living space

on the inside, Obremski jacked up the house and

dug a full basement deep enough for an eight-foot

ceiling. After pouring proper footings and a founda-

tion, he lowered the house down onto the founda-

tion. Joining the tool shed and a portion of the cov-

ered porch with the west bedroom allowed

Obremski to convert this part of the house into a

kitchen/family area. The living room grew, as

Krogh removed the bedrooms and the false ceiling.

The old kitchen north of the chimney became

Krogh’s study, and the bathroom, a small powder

room.

In the basement, Obremski built a master bed-

room suite, complete with full bathroom and a sep-

arate tiled shower. He also added a utility room and

a guest bedroom.

Although the final product eventually earned the

Martin Box praise — including a place in both the

Nantucket and Siasconset 2010 calendars — after

Obremski set the house down on its new founda-

tion, Krogh quickly ran afoul of his neighbors and

the Historic District Commission because the peak

of the roof was now roughly 16 inches higher than

it originally was.

According to Goldsmith, Obremski had to bring

the cottage up to that height — the foundation up

six inches because layers of sand, dirt and asphalt

had accumulated around the house over nearly

three centuries, rotting its sill and the lower rows

of shingles. And, another eight inches up to meet

Nantucket’s building code dictating a building’s

first floor be at least eight inches above grade.

The pressure-treated sill planks added another 1.5

inches.

While the actual height of the house did not

change, raising it out of the ground roughly 16

inches higher than approved by the HDC raised the

ire of the Siasconset Advisory Board and Krogh’s

neighbors. The finger-pointing began almost imme-

diately, with some claiming that Krogh was ruining

the most beautiful street in America. Enduring 18

HDC meetings, including his as-built application,

Krogh eventually prevailed.

Having retired at the end of June 2009 and now

spending mid-April through Christmas on

Nantucket and the rest of the year in New Zealand,

Krogh takes the long view.

“The way I look at it is people started living out

here in Teepees, then they started living in shacks,

and then they lived in cottages…(laughing)…and

now some of them are living in homes,” he said.

“And this is a home. That’s the way I look at it. And

also, frankly, I think we’re all part of history. We all

make our contributions to history and history is not

frozen — it moves on and we have put our signa-

ture on this place. We’re part of its’ evolution.

That’s the way I look at it.”

From left:A portion of the written inventory of the entire contents of the cottage left behind by Clark.After removing thefalse ceiling from the living room in the Martin Box and the two bedrooms, owner Peter Krogh had the non-structuralbeams put in, which his wife, Carol stained with a worn-looking patina.These beam appear throughout the first floor.

Joined with the tool shed to the north and part of a covered porch, the new kitchen in the Martin Box is expansive and includes a fireplace with a cherry facade.
