The longtime Palm Beach, Fla., home of the late conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh has sold for $155 million, according to property records.
The roughly 2.7-acre waterfront property was quietly on the market last year, asking $150 million to $175 million, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The sale is a record deal for Palm Beach, according to property records and real-estate appraisal firm Miller Samuel. In 2013, hedge-funder Ken Griffin paid $129.6 million for four parcels. Last year, Oracle Corp. co-founder and chairman Larry Ellison purchased a $173 million home in nearby Manalapan, Fla., setting a record for that area.
Located on tony North Ocean Boulevard, the compound has multiple structures, including a large main house built in West Indies style. The property has roughly 250 feet of ocean frontage and direct access to the beach, records show.
Mr. Limbaugh, a talk-radio icon who died in 2021, purchased the property for $3.9 million in 1998 through a limited liability company, records show. The seller was a trust tied to his widow, Kathryn Adams Limbaugh.
The roughly 24,000-square-foot main house was largely decorated by Limbaugh himself, according to the 2010 book “An Army of One” by Zev Chafets. A vast salon was meant to invoke Versailles, the book said, and a dining room chandelier was a replica of the one in New York’s Plaza Hotel.

Because of what -you- would do in such a situation?
Your initial post is proof positive of what Rush said about Dems:
“It’s Not the Nature of the Evidence; It’s the Seriousness of the Charge.”
You’re truly embarrassing.
