Real estate broker Christine Angle, who listed the mansion for sale, represented the seller and the buyer.

Angle told the Palm Beach Daily News that “we represented a lovely young family who had been looking for a direct oceanfront property for some time.”

The three-story, eight-bedroom house has 17,719  square feet of indoor and outdoor living space. The property features a swimming pool, large patios, and covered balconies and loggias.
