Parrot Head Paradise — Jimmy Buffett's Palm Beach Home Lists For $7.25 Million

According to Realtor.com, the late musician Jimmy Buffett's charming Palm Beach bungalow has been listed for $7.5 million.

The home offers a slice of paradise for Buffett fans, or Parrot Heads as they're known, who dream of living the carefree Florida lifestyle. Buffett acquired the house in 2002.

The three-bedroom bungalow boasts a wealth of character. Though not directly on the beach, the property offers the best of both worlds: a tranquil setting and easy access to the sugar-white sands of the Atlantic Ocean. Just a short stroll away, you can sink your toes into the warm sand and enjoy the refreshing ocean breeze.

Clocking in at a cozy 1,523 square feet, the historic 1925 bungalow offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Buffett's legacy. While the listing price translates to a premium of $4,760 per square foot — well above Palm Beach's median of $1,800 — for devoted Parrot Heads, the chance to own a slice of Margaritaville might be worth the extra cost.

The residence offers an intimate feel that is perfect for people who appreciate the character and history that come with a classic beach bungalow. Tall hedges and a white picket fence create a sense of privacy around the house. Step inside the gate to a brick patio leading to the main house, a quaint two-bedroom haven painted a cheerful white with privacy shutters.

Unwind in the home's tranquil interior, where gleaming pine floors and calming colors evoke a quintessential beach vibe. Imagine whipping up margaritas in the small but well-equipped kitchen with a skylight, breakfast bar and unique light fixtures. Open shelves and doors leading outside add to the airy feel.

Both bathrooms are bright and pristine, while the bedrooms offer havens of relaxation. The primary bedroom boasts a calming all-white palette. At the same time, the other, currently used as an office, is painted in a refreshing aquamarine hue — a subtle nod to the ocean and perhaps the Parrot Head lifestyle.

Beyond the main house, a detached building serves as a recording studio, with surfboards adding to the musical ambience. The versatile space could be transformed into an additional bedroom, a home gym, or an artist's haven.

While there's no pool, beach lovers will appreciate the two outdoor showers to wash away the day's sand. For evenings under the Florida sky, a patio with seating beckons for relaxation and soaking up the idyllic surroundings.
