VERO BEACH, FL/FEBRUARY
2020 – Dale Sorensen Real
Estate Broker Associate Matilde Sorensen has announced a significant price drop
for “Palm Cottage”, a magnificent riverfront estate on Vero Beach’s Barrier
Island. Originally listed for $8,875,000, the price has been reduced to $7,500,000. The property is located at 721 Grove
Place in Orchid Island.
“This is one of Vero Beach’s most
beautiful homes,” Sorensen said. “It has one of the most magnificent master
suites with a fireplace that is visible from both the bedroom and the
bath. The kitchen is every cook’s dream. But the view of the river and the amazing
outdoor living space is simply breathtaking. It’s a great place to watch our
famous Florida sunsets or see dolphins jumping.”
Situated on nearly an acre of lush, tropically
landscaped property, with expansive views of the Indian River, the 2 guest
cottages and main house make up almost 9,000 square feet of living area. The estate includes a beautiful courtyard featuring
a glimmering pool and spa, a lovely “mermaid” fountain and splashes of
meticulous green lawn. The main house features polished marble floors, a total
of 9 fireplaces, 2 bedrooms, 5 baths, and an elevator to the second floor. The
Chef’s kitchen is impeccable with white plantation style cabinetry, two sinks,
a side by side Sub-Zero fridge with 3 freezer drawers, double built-in ovens,
and an island featuring a 6-burner Thermador
gas stovetop and overhead hood vent. The
adjacent family room looks out onto the lanai.
The first-floor guest suite is complete with its own laundry area and a
full size ensuite featuring a marble surround jacuzzi tub.
On
the second floor is the impressive master suite. The bedroom itself is elegant
with glowing wood floors, a unique custom-built wood-beamed tray ceiling and a
private deck to view the area’s stunning sunsets. The lavish master bath is magnificent with
marble floors, black and gold furniture-style footed
sinks, an oval jacuzzi tub and another one of the home’s beautiful stone
fireplaces. The all-marble master shower
has multiple shower heads and features a large window that overlooks the Indian
River lagoon.
The master suite also includes a
beautifully appointed den and a piano room with glorious views of the
river. Both rooms feature polished wood
floors, custom tray ceilings and access to the private balcony. Access to the
second floor is granted through a stone staircase or via a private elevator.
The north and south cottages are
separated by a walk-through. The north cottage has 2 bedrooms while the South
cottage features 1 bedroom. Both
cottages feature laundry rooms, kitchens, living rooms and ample windows to
allow for lots of natural light while the ground floor rooms open to the
courtyard.
The outdoor living
spaces of this home are incomparable and feature a summer kitchen, covered
lanai, open pool deck with twin fireplaces on either side of a beautiful heated
pool and 4 single-stream fountains.
The home’s dock is
accessed just off the main pool and offers fishing, boating and views of the
Indian River Lagoon with all its local flora and fauna. Watch dolphins,
turtles, egrets and other wildlife from the privacy of your own dock.
Located on Vero Beach’s
Barrier Island in the exclusive community of Orchid Island, residents enjoy a
world class lifestyle and amenities.
