🎉 Home Sold — 208 Lone Pine Dr, Palm Beach Gardens Real Estate

SOLD | This luxury waterfront pool home in Palm Beach Gardens is officially off the market! Listed with my 1% plan, the seller saved over $20,000 in commission fees — without sacrificing service, strategy, or results. Ready to sell smart? Let’s talk.

I’m thrilled to announce that 208 Lone Pine Drive in Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410, a stunning gated‑community home with 4 bedrooms, 2½ baths and 2,520 sq ft, officially sold on June 18, 2025, for $990,000 — representing a major win for the seller, who saved significantly by working with me ■(Zillow).

🚀 Strategic Pricing Led to a Successful Sale

Originally listed at $1,250,000 in November 2024, the price was carefully adjusted over time to $1,150,000, then $1,050,000, and finally to $1,000,000 in April — all based on real-time feedback and market data. This calibrated strategy resulted in a smooth, well‑timed sale at $990,000 — only 1% under asking, in a competitive market.(Zillow, Trulia Real Estate Search)

🏆 Why This Home Sold So Well

  • Desirable features: saltwater pool, canal frontage with ocean access, intracoastal views, and direct access to Bird Preserve made this property a standout.(Zillow)
  • Versatile indoor layout: open living/dining areas, gourmet kitchen with marble countertops, and four bedrooms including a luxurious upstairs primary suite with dual closets, soaking tub, and preserve views.(Redfin)
  • Outstanding outdoor amenities: deck, dock, putting green, bar & lounge area, and fenced dog retreat provided unparalleled lifestyle appeal.(Redfin)

đź’° Seller Savings: Fewer Commissions, More Value

By choosing my services directly, the seller avoided hefty commissions and agent markups commonly associated with traditional listings via full-service brokerages like Redfin or others. As both Listing Agent and Broker, I offered a flat‑fee model, ensuring full MLS exposure plus expert negotiation at a fraction of the cost.

Unlike full‑service alternatives that usually charge 5–6% of the sales price, the seller saved thousands—while still benefiting from professional marketing, staging coordination, price strategy, and contract-handling excellence.

đź§  A Smart Seller Decision = Maximum ROI

Here’s what the seller gained:

  • A solid sale price of $990,000 in under seven months on market
  • Expert guidance through every phase: market‑timing, pricing, inspections, negotiations
  • Thousands saved in commission dollars through my flat‑fee service
  • A seamless, transparent experience from start to finish
