Fox News star Sean Hannity is making headlines for his stunning $23.5 million waterfront property purchase in Palm Beach County, Florida. The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday.
The move follows his announcement earlier this year about moving from New York to Florida, where he broadcasts his radio show, The Sean Hannity Show, and his TV show, “Hannity,” from West Palm Beach.
During a January episode of his iHeartRadio show, Hannity explained that his desire to move to Florida stems from his distaste for the political policies of New York’s representatives, according to a report from Realtor.com.
“Finally, for the first time in my life as an adult, I actually have representatives from the district I live in who share my values,” he explained. “Like many Americans, I left New York for good and now I’m in the state, let’s see: warmer climate, law and order, better education, more freedom, better quality of life – and guess what? There is no government tax.”
Hannity’s newly acquired estate, located in the exclusive Manalapan neighborhood, was listed in February for $29 million, and later relisted for $29.5 million, according to the property listing.
Gary Pohrer and Nicholas Malinosky of the Special Group at Douglas Elliman represented the listing, while Vince Spadea of Elliman represented Hannity in the purchase.
Although the identity of the seller was not disclosed, i WSJ reported that the property was purchased through a limited liability company for $18 million in 2021.
The home offers 150 feet of dual water front views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway.
The nearly two-acre property includes an approximately 12,000-square-foot, eight-bedroom beachfront home, including a luxury master suite, 10 full bathrooms, a large kitchen with two islands, and luxurious outdoor living areas with a resort-style pool. and a spa.

It is unclear whether Hannity plans to live in the property alone or with his two children, according to Realtor.com. Earlier this year, he sold his Long Island waterfront property in Oyster Bay for an estimated $12.7 million to a fan. In addition, in 2021, Hannity bought a Palm Beach condo for $5.3 million.
