About Marsha

Marsha first came to the Boone/Banner Elk area in 1979 as a Biology Naturalist student at Appalachian State University. Like many others, she never left. Having lived in different regions of the High Country for the past 46 years, and being involved in many different business endeavors, she has lots of knowledge and history of the region.
For 25 years Marsha worked as an artist and owned her own company, Spring Beauties. She hand-crafted local wildflowers out of recycled aluminum printing plates. By being a member of the local Galleries and also participating in craft shows, she was able to be an 'at-home Mom' for her 2 children, Anna and Jamie. Anna currently works as a NICU travel nurse. Jamie is a real estate broker that also works for The Summit Group. His wife Shannon is a CRNA at Watauga Hospital in Boone.
Marsha raised Arabian horses and Bloodhounds during the 1980's- early 1990's. She owned a 55 acre farm in the Deep Gap area of Watauga County. Her husband, at that time, secured a job as a Biology Professor at Lees McRae College and that is what brought her to sell the farm and move to Banner Elk. She is currently married to David McManus, who has also lived here for 46 years, and owns McManus Farms and Landscaping. He went to Lees McRae College and never left the area.
The Summit Group Real Estate was formed in the spring of 2005 and is owned by Marsha and Alison Phillips. Having met at church, these friends knew the area and knew most of the people living here. Pulling together all our talents and knowledge we formed a Real Estate Company that is founded on respect, trust and the genuine desire to represent our Sellers and Buyers in the best way possible.
