THE WATERFRONT COMPANY™

Since 1987, Lake District Realty has served the needs of Sellers and Buyers of Real Estate in the Frontenacs, with a focused interest in Waterfront properties. 

“Although we deal with the many aspects of real estate administration on a daily basis, we realize that for most of our Buyers and Sellers this is an infrequent exercise. Our goal is to make this process pleasant and smooth for everyone we have the pleasure of working with.”

Annette Gray-Jackson

Annette Gray-Jackson, Sales Representative

Annette feels fortunate to have lived, worked and raised her family in “The Frontenacs”.  Upon completion of her university degree at Trent University she always knew that she would return home.  

Annette brings a variety of experiences to the Lake District Realty team, most recently operating a multi practitioner Health & Wellness Clinic in Sharbot Lake as a Registered Massage Therapist.   The call to return to her Real Estate roots has always been strong.  Her Real Estate influences go back to her Grandfather who saw the value of Waterfront Property in this area in the 1950’s and 60’s and her father, a local Realtor for 30 years.

Annette recognizes the significance in purchasing or selling property in her Clients lives and looks forward to assisting people in this life milestone through education and information. 

“I love people and learning their stories, hearing the memories they shared while at their beloved property and becoming excited for those about to create new memories with the purchase of their dream waterfront property.”
