In 1929, he sold the house to Cornelius Sullivan.   Sullivan was a Wall Street lawyer and his wife, Mary Quinn Sullivan, was an artist and art teacher in the New York City public schools. In 1993, The Sullivan House was lovingly restored by Ellen Ball O’Brien whose grandfather, Simon Ray Ball, built the house in 1904.  The Sullivan House continues as a family business. The Sullivan House commands unsurpassed views of the Atlantic Ocean and Great Salt Pond. Each room features an ocean view, four-poster bed, and private bath. Private, yet walking-distance to the beach and town.
