Raising her family on Bainbridge Island and being involved in all aspects of the community make Carleen Gosney the agent to call when you need assistance with Bainbridge Island real estate. Note from Carleen In 1993, my family and I arrived from the Bay Area with a sailboat to set up housekeeping in the Seattle area. My husband had taken a new job and a co-worker who lived on the Island, convinced us to take a look. The moment we arrived, I knew I was home. I fell in love with the beauty of the Island, the fabulous schools for my children and the community - talented, intellectual, aware people. It was great fun to be at home and yet feel like we were always on vacation surrounded by water, lush green forest and rolling hills. With Seattle a short 35-minute ferry ride away, I have the best of both the metropolitan and the rural worlds. My career in real estate began in the late 90's and it's been non-stop since my feet hit the ground. I consider it a privilege to work with so many wonderful people and their families. When asked what makes me unique in the real estate industry, I have to say I work exceptionally hard and smart, making full use of island connections. I take time to listen to your needs and dreams, and turn those dreams into reality. I am committed to open, honest and timely communication so you, whether buying or selling, have the best possible information for your decisions. I hope to have the opportunity to share my enthusiasm and love for Bainbridge Island with you soon. |
