The improvements to Casa Pava will include renovation of the Palm Beach property’s interior and exterior and construction of a new spa.

Jones paid $71 million to buy Casa Pava in 2015. Since then, he and his wife Soni have obtained permits for other upgrades to the 5.3-acre estate, including work on the property’s basketball and tennis court. [Palm Beach Daily News]Mike Seemuth
