Breaking —
Paula Deen’s waterfront mansion has sold. South first covered Elaine Seabolt’s incredible listing in 2015 when the property hit the market at $12.5 million. The closing price will not be disclosed; however, the sale rings in as the highest residential sale in Chatham County history.
Deen bought the home for $3.75 million in 2006. The 5.5-acre compound features a 14,500 square foot custom-built French Caribbean-style main house where the kitchen is the centerpiece, outfitted with commercial-grade appliances and an aviary. The home also boasts a media room and projector screen, gym, pool room and soda fountain. The privately gated property includes lush gardens, multiple guest accommodations, a barn with an eight-car garage and three-bedroom apartment, outdoor patio kitchen, swimming pool, croquet court, dock and drive-in theater.
As impressive as this luxury property is, Seabolt Real Estate has made history with this extraordinary record-breaking closing.
