Despite selling at a $3 million discount, the $16.5 million sale of a waterfront mansion on a barrier island south of Sarasota, Florida, tied for the most expensive deal in the county.
The sale of the five-bedroom, seven-bathroom residence on Casey Key sold for the same amount as the previous record holder, the sale of a classical-style mansion in late 2020, according to the Multiple Listing Service. But the Casey Key deal, which closed on Wednesday, was the priciest property in the ZIP Code, selling at about 46% more than the next most expensive home there.
