Dale Sorensen Real Estate (DSRE), Indian River County’s leading real estate firm, recently announced that Matilde Sorensen has been named the exclusive listing agent for The Beach Cottages at The Strand.  The Beach Cottages is a Key West inspired enclave of 21 townhomes in The Strand, Vero’s newest community located at 8100 N. Highway A1A. The Strand, being developed by the Patten Company, extends from Highway A1A west to Jungle Trail between Palm Island Plantation and Indian Trails. The Beach Cottages will front Highway A1A near the community entrance with Private Beach Access. 

“The marketing of a product such as The Beach Cottages requires an expansive campaign utilizing marketing and advertising tools that only a firm like Dale Sorensen Real Estate can provide,” said Dale Sorensen, Jr., Managing Partner for DSRE. “We have an extensive network of exclusive worldwide real estate marketing affiliations. Through these affiliations we are able to market a property or community, like The Beach Cottages, to an entire world of luxury home buyers.”

“This will be an extraordinary community because of the design, the location and the pricing,” said Matilde Sorensen.   “The architecture of the homes will offer a luxurious, yet easy, Florida Beach lifestyle on a beautiful tract of land with wonderful oak trees and palms. Yet its location is close to the museum, boutiques and fine dining. We’re accepting reservations now with a $10,000 refundable deposit.  Since this is a part of the last buildable tract of land in Indian River Shores, I expect these homes to sell quickly and I’m really excited to be able to market this new community.” 

The site consists of 5.2 +/- acres and contains a stately Live Oak canopy and natural privacy berm comprised of Spanish Stoppers, Coconut and Sabal Palms.  One story end units will be 2,328 +/- SF under air (2,872 +/- total under roof). Two story residences will be 3,078 +/- SF under air (4,121 +/- total under roof) with a covered lanai and balcony; all units will feature terraces, courtyards and private 2-car garages.

Private pools, courtyard fireplaces, and designer furniture packages will be available upgrades. With handsome aluminum roofs, residences will be built on concrete slabs using concrete block construction and impact resistant windows and doors for lock & leave peace of mind.
