3.2-Acre Oceanside Estate Owned by Former PGA Tour Exec. Teed Up for Luxury Auction® Oct 29th

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla., Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- This Thursday, October 29, 2026, a Florida oceanside estate owned by a former PGA Tour executive will be sold to the highest bidder in a luxury auction® without reserve. The luxury property at 1272 Ponte Vedra Boulevard was previously seeking as much as $5.75 million, but will now go to the auction's highest bidder regardless of price. Platinum Luxury Auctions is handling the transaction in concert with listing agent Priscilla Johnson of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Network Realty. The home is owned by Leonard "Len" Brown, Jr., former Chief of Global Business Ventures at the PGA Tour.

Platinum has sold eight (8) consecutive, multimillion-dollar properties in northeast Florida's St. Johns and Duval counties since 2023, including four (4) oceanfront homes in Ponte Vedra Beach. "We're excited to work with Len and his family for the sale of this extremely rare, oversized parcel. A property with 3.22 private acres – just steps from the ocean and with frontage on the beautiful Guana River – is a statistically rare asset in the Ponte Vedra Beach marketplace," said Trayor Lesnock, Platinum's founder and president.

Lesnock added that per his firm's research, the 3.22-acre parcel is the largest available property for sale on the eastern barrier island of Ponte Vedra Beach. It would also rank as the second largest such parcel sold in the marketplace within at least the past twenty (20) years – coming in behind the sale of a 4.68-acre, oceanfront estate that traded in July of this year for a lofty $20 million.

The property features a private entry gate opening to a paved drive that gently winds through the lushly landscaped and private grounds. The single-story residence was built in 2001, then extensively upgraded by Mr. Brown and his family in 2024-2025. Living areas span a total of approx. 5,560 sf – comprised of the primary living quarters and an immediately adjacent guesthouse – and include 5 total bedrooms and 4 full baths.

Interiors feature lofted ceilings, custom wood flooring and premium finishes that elegantly blend traditional and modern styles. There is also an executive office/study, a "flex" room currently outfitted as a children's "homework station" and an oversized, primary bedroom suite with a double-sided fireplace and spacious sitting area that currently serves as a fitness room.

Outdoor living areas include a screened-in pool – keeping insects and landscaping debris at bay – and surrounding lounge with built-in televisions and a charming cabana shower. Grounds feature manicured lawns in both the front and back yards, a private putting green and a stone footpath leading to a lovely, outdoor lounge situated along the edge of the Guana River – an area where Mr. Brown occasionally enjoyed an evening cocktail while taking in northeast Florida's sublime sunsets.

The property also benefits from an excellent location that is just 15 mins south of the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club, an oceanfront country club and AAA Five Diamond resort beloved by both locals and visitors for its location, service and amenities. The PGA Tour headquarters and the famous TPC Sawgrass golf course – home of The Player's Championship – is just 4 miles away, while the heart of downtown Jacksonville is 20 miles to the west.

Previews of the property are available daily through the close of October 28, 2026. Appointments may be scheduled by contacting Platinum's project manager, Walter Cerini, at 888.576.6839. Luxury auction® documents, photos and videography of the property are also hosted online at FLLuxuryAuction.com.
