The potential of this property is truly endless. You can keep this home as your full-time residence for the whole family, use it as a rental property, or make it your home-away-from-home vacation retreat.”

With its uncrowded and beautiful atmosphere, Vero Beach is a true jewel on Florida’s east Atlantic coast. Its motto of “sunrises not high rises,” rings true in every corner of the community.

“Being close to the amusement parks of Florida, numerous golf courses and outstanding restaurants really drew us to build in this area,” stated the current owner. “We ensured that every detail of this home took advantage of the beauty of the ocean and provided sea views in almost every room… even the saltwater pool offers wonderful oceanfront views.”

This impeccably designed home in an unmatched location will be sold at a no-reserve auction on March 20, to the highest bidder. To learn more, contact Supreme Auctions at (866) 929-2243 or visit SupremeAuctions.com.
