Shaklee Corp. CEO Roger Barnett and his wife, journalist Sloan Barnett, have sold their waterfront mansion in Coconut Grove for $71.9 million. The sale is one of the latest high-value transactions in the Miami neighborhood.
The property, located at 3085 Munroe Drive, spans 10,400 square feet and includes seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms. The buyers are a trust managed by Greenberg Traurig attorney Benjamin Babcock and Mary McFadden Quisenberry, chief operating officer at Rosewood Family Advisors in San Francisco.
The Real Deal previously identified the Barnetts as the owners when they purchased the nearly one-acre estate from billionaire Jorge Mas in 2021 for $45.9 million. This recent sale represents an increase of more than 60 percent over their original purchase price nearly five years ago.
The house was built in 2015.
Roger Barnett leads Shaklee Corp., a company specializing in nutrition and green cleaning products. He also founded Beauty.com, an early online cosmetics retailer. He is the son of Victor Barnett, former chairman of Burberry, and part of the Wolfson family. Sloan Barnett is a lawyer and journalist who has written books on nutrition; she is also the daughter of late billionaire George Lindemann.
In addition to this property, the Barnetts own another waterfront mansion at 46 Star Island Drive, which they bought in 2021 for $38 million.
Coconut Grove has recently experienced a rise in ultra-luxury real estate sales. Notable residents include hedge fund manager Ken Griffin, who purchased a four-acre bayfront estate at 3031 and 3115 Brickell Avenue for almost $107 million in 2022.
Last month, Jorge Mas—board chairman of MasTec and managing owner of Inter Miami CF—sold a 7.3-acre residential lot adjacent to the Kampong botanical garden for over $100 million to an undisclosed buyer.
Also in December, Banyan Ridge—a 4.5-acre waterfront compound at 3585 Anchorage Way—sold for $101.5 million after being listed most recently at $115 million. The seller was the estate of Jonathan Lewis, known as a restaurateur and LGBT advocate in Miami.
