Superstar singer and songwriter Billy Joel has apparently purchased a waterfront home in Boca Raton’s exclusive Sanctuary development while trying to sell his expansive estates in Manalapan and Long Island.
State business records and a deed filed Wednesday reflecting a $29 million sale that closed Jan. 31 in the gated and guarded community off Spanish River Boulevard point to a purchase by the legendary crooner, who jokingly quipped at a New Year’s Eve concert that he would be spending more time in Florida like “old Jewish guys from Long Island do.”
The 15,000-square-foot home in The Sanctuary is on a unique corner lot with more than an acre of land and 560 feet of water frontage on the Intracoastal Waterway. The listing calls The Sanctuary Boca Raton’s “internationally acclaimed yachting enclave,” and notes that security is a priority with a 24-hour guard gate and roving patrols on the roads and waterways.
