Most folks in their 80s living on
North Hutchinson Island are well
into retirement, enjoying natural
amenities found on the beautiful stretch
of the barrier island between the Indian
River County line and Fort Pierce Inlet
State Park.
Retirement? At age 84, Bob Lowe chooses
to remain active by selling this Treasure
Coast gem to out-of-towners looking to
relocate, especially from the East Coast,
North Florida and South Florida.
Lowe, you see, is president of Lowe’s
International Realty Plus, located at 2901
N. Highway A1A. It’s the single-story tan
building with the barrel tile roof that
stands alone on the 9.5-acre lot at the
corner of A1A and Marina Drive.
Despite complications from hip surgery
in 2017 that has him using a walking aid,
Lowe refuses to slow down, working seven
days a week from the office or home.
Wife, Sharon, company vice president
and licensed Realtor, has been her husband’s
rock of support for 45 years.
“It is hard to keep up with him at 84 and
I’m 71,” said Sharon, who retired five years
ago from Indian River State College after
ANTHONY INSWASTY
42 years. “He just won’t quit. I often say to
him, ‘Let’s just quit and let’s enjoy traveling’
and all that. He says, ‘I’ve got to stay busy.’
“This their business keeps his mind
going and active,” she said. “He’s so active
in the community. He’s not going to quit.
No quitting.”
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Lowe will have none of that when it
comes to professional and community
involvement. In addition to having served
on state and area Realtor boards, he was
elected chairman of the St. Lucie County >>
Bob and Sharon Lowe of Lowe’s International Realty Plus have lived on North Hutchinson Island for 45 years.
