SERENA SELLS LOT IN JUPITER FOR $6M
Tennis great Serena Williams turned a tidy profit on a piece of property in Jupiter.
Williams sold a 2.4-acre vacant lot at Bears Club for $6 million, according to property records. She paid $4.1 million in 2013.
The buyers are Edward Brown, CEO of Patron Spirits Co., and his wife, Ashley Brown. They live in Hillsboro Beach, according to a deed.
Residents at Bears Club include basketball great Michael Jordan.
Williams, who gave birth to a daughter with her now-husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, in September, has two houses in Palm Beach Gardens.
In May 2015, she bought a new two-story home with five bedrooms and five bathrooms on Bold Lad Road for $2.5 million, according to records.
She and her sister, tennis star Venus Williams, co-own a $2 million home on Grand Key Terrace in the BallenIsles community, which has three golf courses and a tennis facility ranked first by the U.S. Tennis Association.
The Williams’ sisters are longtime residents of Palm Beach County. In 1991, they moved from their native Southern California to Delray Beach with their father, Richard, to train at the Delray Beach Tennis Center.
Serena Williams, 36, has won a record 23 Grand Slam singles titles and she has recorded more than $80 million in winnings during her career, according to Forbes, plus millions more in endorsements.
