GOLD COAST | SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY FOUNDER
Backed by the powerhouse of ONE | Sotheby’s International Realty, Edmund DeSoto offers more than property expertise—he delivers a Black Label | White Glove experience, defined by discretion, refined insight, and enduring trust.
Edmund has specialized in the luxury real estate markets of world-renowned cities—New York, Paris, London, and Florida’s Gold Coast—since the 1990s. His entry into high-end real estate was shaped by his formative work under the esteemed Michele Bouquier at the French Government Tourist Office in New York. There he led international marketing for Club France, a private enterprise within the French Government Tourist Office dedicated to promoting travel to France and the Principality of Monaco.
That early exposure to luxury, culture, and global branding laid the foundation for a career built on excellence and distinction. With a deep appreciation for design, heritage, and L’art de vivre, or the art of living, Edmund offers a seasoned and thoughtful perspective to luxury real estate in Palm Beach, New York, London, Paris, and Monaco.
He has further refined his vision by establishing a dedicated Modern New Construction division within his Gold Coast | Sotheby’s International Realty firm—an inspired evolution powered by his signature Black Label | White Glove approach. This bespoke standard of representation has since enabled discerning clients to access some of the most architecturally significant and thoughtfully conceived contemporary residences in Florida’s Gold Coast region.
During his time at the French Government Tourist Office, Edmund collaborated with renowned brands like Moët & Chandon, Chanel, Dior, and the Louvre, honing a refined sensibility for exceptional experiences. Today, that instinct informs his work with high-value properties and a discerning clientele. Known for his calm authority, market precision, and discretion, Edmund specializes in iconic waterfront estates, penthouses, and long-term investments, earning trust through decisive action and stylish results. Outside of real estate, Edmund is an accomplished writer and classical pianist.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, he offers a bold yet refined experience—rooted in a global tradition of excellence and a passion for elevated living. Send him a message below.
