Just days into 2024, Bonita Beach saw a record home sale of $12.9 million.
It beat the previous high paid for a single-family home on the beach by more than half a million dollars, set in October.
Property records show the new record sale closed on Jan. 3.
Not surprisingly, the 5,300-square-foot beachfront residence in Bonita Springs has plenty to boast about, from its open-floor-plan design and beachfront entertainment deck to its floating wood beam ceilings and smart home lighting and automation systems.
“This residence is a showcase of visionary design, both inside and out. No details were overlooked. Built to the most current and stringent codes with concrete block construction, it is a beachfront masterpiece with exquisite features and finishes,” said Doug Grant, with John R. Wood Christie’s International Real Estate’s Grant Group, who represented the sellers.
In county records, the sellers are identified as Alfred Geis, along with wife Kris Monaco-Geis, and a revocable trust in his name. He’s a former owner in the Geis Cos. , a multimillion-dollar development and construction business, based in Cleveland, Ohio.
