From Summer strolls to Fall football- the Harris family thrives on family fun & tradition.

If you’ve strolled past the Martin household lately, chances are you’ve heard the joyful chaos that comes with raising three young kids. It's the sound of life in full swing at one of Ardsley Park’s most energetic homes.
Keri and Harris Martin, along with their three children—Sinclair (9), Jane (7), and Charlie (4.5)—have called the neighborhood home since 2015 (counting a brief stop in Parkside). Harris is a Savannah native, raised in Sandfly, while Keri hails from the charming backroads of southwest Georgia along the Wire Grass Trail. Today, they’re both busy attorneys—Harris handles real estate transactions at Bouhan Falligant, and Keri focuses on business, employment, and property litigation at Hall, Gilligan, Roberts, and Shanlever.
Weekends in the Martin household are packed with adventure—whether it's boating on Savannah’s scenic rivers, biking through the neighborhood, taking spontaneous drives to coastal towns like Darien and Beaufort, or simply relaxing poolside. The warmer temps of late Summer/early Fall combined with the consistent sunshine bring even more opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, and the Martins take full advantage.
The family calendar follows a rhythm of traditions that reflect their deep ties to Georgia. Each February brings a quail hunt at Keri’s childhood home. Memorial Day is spent strolling the historic grounds of the Jekyll Island Club. The Fourth of July means fireworks and family time at Lake Blackshear, while fall weekends often include trips to Athens for Georgia football games and their “House Divided” tailgate in Jacksonville. Thanksgiving is spent in Keri’s hometown, but come Christmas, it’s all about home—Ardsley-style. The Martins host a lively Christmas Eve supper for both sides of their family, complete with loud kids, mulled wine, and plenty of holiday cheer.
While they both juggle demanding careers and parenting, Keri and Harris still find ways to give back. Keri serves on the Board of Trustees for The Habersham School and even coaches an U8 soccer team. Harris contributes to a local bank advisory board and stays active at Community Bible Church.
With wit, warmth, and a whole lot of heart, the Martins bring vibrant energy to Ardsley Park. So next time you're out and about and hear some enthusiastic kid chatter from down the block, you’ll know exactly who it is—and you’re more than welcome to say hello. Just be prepared for a lively welcome!
