Ocala, FLA. (April 12, 2022) — An extraordinary Central Florida estate has sold for $999,999 or 74.6 ETH coin, the first Ethereum, fungible token or FT-backed cryptocurrency home sale in Florida — and the first cryptocurrency home sale in Ocala. Located at 6161 SW 18th Court Road, the six-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence rests on lush acreage in an equine-friendly gated community. The listing was marketed and sold exclusively by Tasha Osbourne of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s Southeast Orlando sales gallery, the first office in the company to provide full-service cryptocurrency transaction management. Tasha worked with Celebration Title Group, which helped facilitate the sale.
Encompassing over 5,530 square feet of luxury interior living, the sophisticated residential offering boasts an array of fine features and unique upgrades. From Austrian Schonbek crystal chandeliers and a Kohler 24-karat gold sink to a Carrara marble winding staircase with handmade artistically designed metal rails — meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout. The home’s warm and welcoming layout is highlighted an expansive great room showcasing a wood-burning fireplace, built-ins and sliding doors that open to the outdoor living area. A chef's kitchen features Norwegian blue granite countertops. The relaxing first-floor master suite is crafted with an en suite office, spacious bath and adjoining bonus space.
A private backyard offers a serene sanctuary complete with lush landscaping, an expansive patio, shimmering pool and summer kitchen. Situated near the renowned Florida Horse Park, this home is moments from plenty of outdoor recreation and ample area amenities.
“This elegant estate attracted a discerning buyer seeking an exceptional Central Florida lifestyle," said Tasha Osbourne. "The sale presented a challenging feat as crypto real estate transactions are just beginning to gain momentum. Knowing that I had the full support of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s cryptocurrency transaction management, I was confident I could secure the right buyer, and I am proud to have made history with the first sale of its kind in the state.”
