“It’s all top of the line people that were involved in making this home, the design, the building,” said Gary Pohrer, an agent with Douglas Elliman, who listed the home last week  “The previous owners lightly used it, so it is in move-condition.” The seller was not immediately available for comment.

The entryway of the home includes marble flooring, layered chandeliers and a sweeping staircase. It opens up into a den with a fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows and a table that can fit eight people, according to listing photos. The ground floor also includes a living room, an entertaining room with a bar and pool table, a kitchen, a movie room, an office and three en-suite bedrooms.

Jupiter, home to fewer than 1,000 people, is one of the wealthiest communities in Florida. It is not only known for its luxurious beaches, laid-back atmosphere, top tier amenities and outdoor adventures, but its golf courses that stay green year-round, attracting some of the biggest names in golf to move there permanently. 

The heart of Jupiter is its renowned lighthouse, built in 1860, which can be spotted from some of the city’s hot spots, including the restaurants, shops and the live entertainment areas.
