According to a Wall Street Journal posting on November 11, 2015, Le Palais Royal located in Hillsboro Beach, Florida is returning to the luxury real estate market with a price tag of $159M making it one of the most expensive MLS listed properties in America.

Modeled after the Palace of Versailles in France, Le Palais Royal was initially listed for $139M in September 2014 and was removed from the MLS system a year later according to listing agent Mayi de la Vega of One Sotheby’s International Realty.

According to Joseph Leone, the project manager who has overseen the construction, the owner decided to take the house off the market until it was closer to completion. He has also included an adjacent 1.5 acre lot in order to provide more land and entertaining spaces. The waterfront estate now offers approximately 4.5 acres between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway.

The palatial estate boasts 60,500 square feet and will feature 11 bedrooms including a master suite with a heated plunge pool on the balcony, an 18-seat IMAX home theater, a 30-car subterranean garage, a 3,000 bottle wine cellar and a 1,300-gallon built-in aquarium.

Exterior features include a 4,500 square foot infinity pool with swim-up bar and water slide, a glass-bottomed hot tub suspended above the pool, a putting green, an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven and two boat docks on the Intracoastal.

According to a posting on The Real Deal South Florida Real Estate News, Manalapan had an average sales price of $9,918,500 during the 2015 third quarter coming in higher than Palm Beach’s average of $5,562,815.

Lois Pope, widow of National Enquirer founder Generoso Pope, motivational speaker Tony Robbins and musician Billy Joel all have homes in Manalapan.

Manalapan also offers large ocean-to-Intracoastal parcels which are not readily available in Palm Beach. Residents can enjoy direct oceanfront views as well as dockage on the Intracoastal. With a close proximity to the Boynton Beach inlet, boaters can access the ocean in minutes.

Supply and demand are playing a role in the Manalapan luxury real estate market. There are currently 20 properties for sale in the town and seven of them are listed for more than $5M. Almost all are more than 6,500 square feet and some are up to 10,000 square feet.
