From the Palm Beach Daily News: “Jimmy Buffett home sells for $18.5 million”
Jimmy and Jane Buffett’s Midtown estate has sold for $18.5 million, according to a deed filed today at the Palm Beach County courthouse.
The buyer has not yet been identified.
The Buffetts paid $4.4 million for the five bedroom-nine bathroom compound on 1.6 acres in 1994. The address is 540 S. Ocean Blvd.
The estate was originally designed in the Mediterranean style by Marion Sims Wyeth but was later remodeled into a British Colonial-style house by Howard Major. In 1969 the Garden Club of Palm Beach showcased the house as part of its annual house and garden tour.
The estate features a tennis court, pool, guest house and ocean frontage.
The property is currently appraised for $23.3 million by the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser’s Office.

Still sold for over 4 times what he paid for it! Great investment. Everything Jimmy touches turns to gold. I wish I had that touch.
Cheers!

What’s with CrawDadie? I think he must have a crustacean up his ass.

Oh C’mon CrawDadie, Are you another one of those Sourpusses who resent Jimmy for having a head for business? Dude, propery values rise….and it doesn’t say Jimmy held a gun to anyone’s head and forced them to buy the property. Chill!

Crawdaddie sounds like sourgrapes. Just because he doesn’t like his music and OBVIOUSLY isn’t nearly as smart as Jimmy Buffett, he has to bad mouth him. Go crawl back under your rock !!!
