A sprawling ocean-to-lake estate in Manalapan, Florida, reportedly linked to Fox News host Sean Hannity, has hit the market for $44.9 million. The property, which includes furnishings, boasts extensive waterfrontage on both the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean.
Key Takeaways
- An eight-bedroom estate in Manalapan, Florida, is listed for $44.9 million.

A Lavish Coastal Property
The Mediterranean-style estate, built in 1990, spans 20,106 square feet of living space, both interior and exterior. It features approximately 150 feet of frontage on the Intracoastal Waterway and a separate parcel with 150 feet of oceanfront, complete with a cabana. The property also includes a private dock, offering convenient access to the Intracoastal.
Transaction History and Ownership
The 1840 S. Ocean Blvd. Trust, linked to Hannity through his financial advisor William G. Lako Jr. as trustee, purchased the estate in November 2024 for $25.95 million. The current listing price represents a significant increase from that transaction. The previous seller had undertaken several improvements, including floor replacements, bathroom renovations, and upgrades to the wine room and impact-resistant doors and windows. The lakeside swimming pool and seawall were also refurbished.
Hannity’s Florida Real Estate Portfolio
This Manalapan estate is not Hannity’s only significant real estate holding in the Palm Beach area. He has also consolidated two adjacent oceanfront townhouses in Palm Beach, which he acquired for a combined $22.5 million in separate transactions in April 2021 and January 2025. Hannity declared Palm Beach his primary residence in 2023, citing alignment with Florida’s conservative political climate.
Market Context
Manalapan has been a hub for high-value real estate transactions, including Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison’s purchase of a 22-acre estate for $173 million in 2022 and his subsequent acquisition of the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa for $277.4 million in 2024. The listing agent for the Hannity-linked estate is Vince Spadea of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
