Megan Flanigan

Megan was born and raised in Purchase. Today she lives in her family home. Nearly 100 years ago, Megan Flanigan’s grandfather, Horace Flanigan, bought the twenty-two acre property, and it has remained in the family ever since. Originally intending to renovate the main residence as a spec house, Horace ultimately decided to make Purchase his family home. Since then, the estate has remained in Flanigan hands, and Megan now manages the property, having purchased it after her parents’ passing. She has worked to renovate many aspects of the estate, including restoring the wood floors and walls, resurfacing the tennis court, and, most especially, maintaining the gardens and orchard.
