Corner Antiques 2 opened earlier this month at 52 Great Road which previously housed a showroom for Harvard Green Builders. I recently spoke with Jan McGrath, the owner of Corner Antiques 2. Jan originally opened up the first Corner Antiques at the old Blake Block in 2008 and then moved it around the corner to 53R Great Road.

Jan gets most of her antiques and collectibles from auction and estate sales. She also takes some items on consignment. In addition to her two stores, Jan also offers estate sales management which involves advertising the sale itself, organizing merchandise, pricing and staging a home in order to maximize the value of it's assets.
The new store is currently open Friday to Sunday to start. She hopes to expand the hours in the next few months.

This new store should get a lot more exposure which should also help drive sales for the original store. Since the second stores has very limited hours, it was smart to add a sign referencing the original location. I'm wondering if adding the word annex to the name (i.e. Corner Antiques Annex) would make it more obvious that the main store was right nearby.

Corner Antiques 2 Opens at 52 Great Road, this place is really a must visit one for me. I am so amazed to see such beauty and calm atmosphere.
I value the article post.Really thank you! Really Cool.
Corner Antiques 2 is a very nice shop, I really like antiques. But displaying antiques is easy to get them dirty, a long towel or an best vacuums can help us clean it. In addition to regular antique cleaning, we can use a small size to make it faster.
