13 with a $2 million starting bid.The sellers of the Mediterranean-style residence are Sarah and James Cammilleri, who run a Burger King franchise empire through JCS Management Group — overseeing nearly 60 franchise locations mostly in the northeastern US.They bought the residence for $1.6 million in 2017 and spent more than $1 million for outdoor area upgrades.The Cammilleris opted for the auction route because it will give them sale certainty, as opposed to waiting on the open market to bring them a buyer.The four-bedroom spread faces the Intracoastal Waterway.
Taking advantage of its perch, a bean-shaped salt water pool runs along the waterfront.Outside, there’s also an al fresco kitchen and bar, and a 105-foot dock with two boat lifts.
The family’s updates to the outdoor area included big pool upgrades.Now, it has a hot tub with seats for up to 15, new resurfacing, cabanas and a beach area with a fire pit.
The bar and kitchen area was also dressed with cristallo stone from Brazil.As for the home, it dates to 1996 and runs 6,515 square feet.There are four bedrooms, a game room, a double-height great room with views of the water and an attached garage.
