There’s a new trophy up for grabs.
Todd Glaser and his companions stated the renovated mansion at 10 Tarpon Isle for $218 million, Bloomberg reported. The historic estate was built in 1930 on a 2.3-acre personal person-produced island, dubbed Tarpon Island. If bought for its asking price tag, it will set a new residential price document for all of Florida.
Glaser and his partners acquired the house for $85 million final 12 months from longtime house owners William and Eileen Toll. His traders incorporate Jim Randall, Scott Robins, and Jonathan Fryd, a trio that has partnered with him on other tasks in South Florida.
The Tarpon Island estate was created by architect Howard Key, a preferred in early Palm Seashore architecture. Glaser’s renovation of the estate involved incorporating a 2nd pool, updating the tennis courtroom, and tearing down a portion of the first mansion to increase an extension. The sq. footage of the renovated mansion is now almost double its authentic 12,000 — it is now 23,000 square feet, according to documents. The home even now has 5 bedrooms and 9 bogs, information show.
At the time that Glaser bought the island, he was not shy about his ambitions for the consumer.

By listing the estate for $218 million, Glaser is gunning for the Florida cost record for a residential house, most not long ago set in June by billionaire Larry Ellison, who bought the former Ziff loved ones estate in nearby Manalapan for $173 million.
The Florida cost history ahead of that was set in Palm Beach front final year when hedge fund billionaire Scott Shleifer bought an oceanfront mansion for $122.7 million.
