\u201cThe presentation of Vollebak Island for live bidding at Sotheby\u2019s New York will mark a historic first for Canadian real estate, putting our country\u2019s luxury real estate opportunities on the world\u2019s most prestigious stage,\u201d says <\/span>Don Kottick, President and CEO<\/span><\/a> of Sotheby\u2019s International Realty Canada. \u201cSotheby\u2019s world-renowned auction house has brought the most treasured possessions to the global market for close to three centuries and Sotheby\u2019s International Realty\u2019s affiliation with this brand heritage has helped us to build an innovative marketing and referral program that connects the world\u2019s finest properties to discerning clientele online and through traditional channels. This upcoming live auction underscores the fact that Canada is now well-established as one of the most sought-after destinations for real estate on the global luxury market.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Vollebak Island, located off the coast of Nova Scotia, is set to be auctioned by Sotheby\u2019s Concierge Auctions in co-operation with Sotheby\u2019s International Realty Canada listing agent Angie Bryant<\/a> and Scott Bryant, Regional Director, Atlantic Canada<\/a>. With an estimate of $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 USD, the island is a pragmatic utopia conceptualized by the globally renowned architecture firm Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG). Completely self-sufficient, the island boasts a diverse ecosystem of dense forests and over 11 acres of land to explore. Bidders will not only vie for the chance to own the majestic island but will also be granted coveted and exclusive rights to Ingels\u2019 design vision, with planning permission for those designs.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to offer this property at auction and provide bidders with an opportunity to own an exceptional piece of real estate. We couldn\u2019t ask for a better-suited property to include in our Exceptional Global Properties sale at Sotheby\u2019s New York. This once-in-a-lifetime property exemplifies one of the most experiential real estate offerings in the world, and as such, we look forward to competitive interest from bidders all over the world,\u201d says Chad Roffers, President of Sotheby\u2019s Concierge Auctions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cLuxury real estate auctions are piquing interest in the high-end real estate market, where qualified buyers can be rare and exceptionally discerning,\u201d says Kottick. \u201cWe believe that our partnership with Sotheby\u2019s Concierge Auctions can be a meaningful option for discerning clientele and agents, particularly for truly bespoke properties that may benefit from the unique exposure that this specific platform offers.\u201d<\/p>\n
