Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty named exclusive broker for 790 acre Sportsman’s Ranch and Equestrian Facility near Palm Beach
ORLANDO, Fla. --- Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, a global marketing company, has been named exclusive sales and marketing agents for the 790 acre Sunlight Ranch, an international sportsman’s ranch and 32 acre equestrian center within 30 minutes of Palm Beach, Jupiter Island and Wellington.
Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, said that the large open acreage ranch and accompanying equestrian complex, listed for sale at $11.9 million, will likely attract interest from US and international buyers.
The 790-acre Sunlight Ranch is a riding, hunting, fishing and outdoor sportsman’s paradise, boasting abundant fish, game and wildlife in their natural habitat. The property features a 32-acre equestrian facility that includes a main show barn with 25 stalls, show rings, polo club barns, polo fields and a clubhouse.
“The Sunlight Saddle and Polo Club is presently the “home-base” training facility for renowned international professionals, Olympians, professional equestrian teams, and experts in all riding sports including western riding, show jumping, dressage and polo,” Soderstrom said.
The ranch includes more than 12 miles of scenic bridle trails winding throughout the property. The property also fronts the cross-state St. Lucie-Okeechobee-Fort Meyers canal, providing easy access to Florida’s intracoastal waterway, the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.
“The diverse current lifestyle usage opportunities and the long-term development potential of the 20-acre deed restricted home sites are enormous, and we expect the list of potential buyers will include some of the most recognizable names in international business, commerce, finance, entertainment and equestrian sports,” Soderstrom said.
