More Than Just An Old Homeowner
Marion Carll, who was she? She was a beloved member of the community and a well-known local educator. In 1957, she founded the first PTA in the area, and a local elementary school was named after her. Carll bequeathed her property to the Commack School Board and District with the condition that it be utilized strictly for educational and historical reasons, as education was such an important aspect of her life. These embroidered shoes sitting on a bed were probably Carll’s.

Marion Carll, a history buff, wanted to maintain as much of the farmhouse’s 19th-century charm as possible, and she never bothered to modernize it to modern standards. As a result, the location is brimming with vintage antiques and historical treasures. “Even though it’s been abandoned since 40 years ago when Marion Carll passed, it appeared as if she was living in another century completely,” says Sansivero.
