Concierge Auctions to Sell Luxury Country Club/Golf Residence in Cooperation With Manormor Sotheby's International Realty

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Jan. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- A private, luxury residence located on a premier parkway lot in the exclusive gated community of Glen Kernan Golf & Country Club, just minutes from several beaches and downtown shopping, will sell at auction on March 1st, Concierge Auctions has announced. Originally listed for $2.95 million, the Starting Bid is $1 million and the Buy-It-Now price is $1.7 million. The sale is being conducted in cooperation with Hazel Cooksey of Manormor Sotheby's International Realty.

"It has been a pleasure to partner with Concierge over the past three years," stated Jeffrey Chefan, Principal/CEO of Manormor Sotheby's International Realty. "The auction platform is a great option for clients interested in an accelerated, competitive sale, and it also benefits buyers by spotlighting the best opportunities in the market."

Situated amid the 600 acres of Glen Kernan, shared with only about 200 neighbors, 4512 Glen Kernan Parkway, East offers club house activities galore. The residence grants luxurious country club living at its finest, boasting 6,846 square feet including four spacious bedrooms, four full bathrooms and two powder bathrooms. Beautiful chandeliers and sconces adorn the walls, while a wrought-iron railing leads up the staircase to the second floor. A step through to the main living areas reveals a wine cellar to the right. The heart of the home is the gourmet chef's kitchen, outfitted with top-of-the-line amenities, ideal for entertaining. Several rooms in the home have grid windows, offering magnificent and expansive golf views and floods of natural light. Additionally there is a game room, study and a courtyard with a jetted soaking pool and fireplace.

"When it comes to golf, it's all about club selection. And when it comes to real estate, it's all about opportunity. This auction is a unique and compelling chance to take advantage of both," Cooksey stated. "We're excited to be working with Concierge Auctions and look forward to naming a new owner."

"Following our recent auction of a Florida riverfront estate, which was the fourth property we've sold in cooperation with Manormor Sotheby's International Realty, we're thrilled to have the opportunity to work with them again," stated Laura Brady, Vice President of Marketing for Concierge Auctions. "Floridians identify with the Concierge platform, further evidenced by our other upcoming auctions in Vero Beach and Jupiter. Our team is skilled at identifying the most motivated sellers in the 'Sunshine State', and we look forward to continued success with this auction in Glen Kernan."
