“The luxury buyer is especially drawn to Ponte Vedra Beach. A unique area with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the intracoastal waterway on the other. Top quality golf courses and the # 1 School district in the State of Florida are just a couple of the the draws. I live in Sawgrass Country Club, one of the top rated private golf and beach clubs in the country with estate homes to small condos surrounding the courses. The PGA TOUR is headquartered here as well as the ATP Headquarters. The Players Championship is played at The Sawgrass Tournament Players Club each year. All and all, this area provides a lifestyle that C-Suite executives covet as well as families and many more. Close proximity to private & international airports as well add to the wonderful accessibility of this area.” - Mandy Morrow, Mandy Morrow Group
