Platinum Luxury Auctions Schedules Wellington Equestrian Estate for Feb Sale

WELLINGTON, Fla., Jan. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Miami-based luxury real estate auction firm Platinum Luxury Auctions will look to extend its flawless sales record in Wellington, Florida with the offering of a unique, 15-acre equestrian estate this winter. To date, Platinum has closed all of its Wellington auction sales, including the sale of Two Swans Farm ($6.9 million), Wild Orchid Stables ($4.325 million), and a residential home in the area's Polo Club enclave ($2.365 million).

On February 25th, 2017 a luxurious horse property located in the private and gated community of Las Palmas will be sold at a live auction, to the highest bidder who meets or exceeds the auction's reserve bid of $4 million. The property was recently asking $11 million prior to the auction announcement. Listing agent Matthew Johnson with Engel & Völkers of Wellington is working in tandem with Platinum for the transaction.

More specifically, the 10-acre portion of the property - which contains all of its structures - will be offered with the $4 million reserve. An additional, 5-acre parcel is available separately, with the price being negotiable between buyer and seller. The undeveloped, 5-acre parcel is contiguous with 10-acre parcel, and is currently used only for additional grazing or riding space.

"This property should readily satisfy those looking for both a luxurious residence and a working horse farm, and those two items can be difficult to find as one unit of sale in Wellington," stated Trayor Lesnock, Platinum's president and founder.

The property's main residence offers nearly 6,400 sf of living space, with 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths. Features include an infinity-edge pool and spa, 1,400-bottle wine cellar, library, media room, office, fitness center, and a "tower" on the second level that is currently outfitted as a yoga studio. There are also two generators, in addition to "Smart Home" technology that is controllable via mobile devices

Additional structures include a 3-vehicle garage (with A/C), guest cottage, 12-stall barn with enclosed lounge and attached loggia offering views of the riding arena and fields, a dedicated set of grooms' apartments with an additional garage for larger equipment, a 215-ft-by-125-ft riding arena, and 6 paddocks.

The property is also quite "green:" it draws additional water from both a well and from rain-catchers located in the paddocks, and it also collects energy from solar panels – which can in fact create an energy surplus that can be sold back to Florida Power & Light.

Wellington, Florida has a well-established reputation as one of the world's most prominent equestrian marketplaces. The area is home to the world's longest-running horse show and competition - the Winter Equestrian Festival. The event draws the Who's Who of the equestrian world to South Florida each year, many of whom then lease or purchase property in Wellington. The community boasts residents such as Bill Gates, Tommy Lee Jones, Bruce Springsteen, and billionaire media mogul John Malone.

The property is available for previews between the hours of 12 and 4pm (EST) every Friday through Sunday, until the auction. Additional information is available at WellingtonLuxuryAuction.com, or by calling Platinum's offices at 800.743.1368.
