INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — Multimillion-dollar home sales aren’t surprising along the beachside stretch of State Road A1A, but this sale is sure to drop a few jaws.
A 15,400-square-foot mansion sold for $27 million Nov. 6, according to market listing service data — apparently the most expensive single-family home sale on record, according to Robbie Fox, who heads the property appraiser’s services department.
No information on who bought it was immediately available because the property deed has not been processed in the records system yet, Fox said.
