NFL Tampa Bay Bucs’ Owner Glazer Sells Palm Beach Mansion for $24 Million

“Le Bellucia,” an amazing $25+ million listing in Palm Beach, was on the market for less than 30 days and sold for just a few million short of the asking price.  Is the luxury market back? At least it is in Palm Beach.

This sale is the priciest in Palm Beach this year and the lucky seller is NFL Tampa Bay Buccaneers owner Malcolm Glazer (pictured) — also a partial owner of soccer team Manchester United — who sold 1200 S Ocean Blvd., Palm Beach, FL for $24 million.

Originally listed for $27.5 million, it has 3.8 acres along the oceanfront and has nearly 12,000 sq ft of living space. Real estate investor Jeff Greene is reportedly the buyer.

Interestingly, Glazer purchased Le Bellucia in 2000 for $14 million, but he never lived in it — mainly because he was planning on a thorough renovation that never happened. The oceanfront home contains 9 bedrooms, 9.5 bathrooms home,  and has stone and hardwood floors, outdoor terraces and an oversized swimming pool.

The home was originally built by Willey J. Kingsley, a physician and capitalist in Rome, N.Y., and named it “Beautiful Lucy” after his wife, Lucy. It was built by celebrated American resort architect Addison Mizner.
