Jennifer Parr in 2024 snapped up a $21 million waterfront estate on the Gulf of Mexico.

Jennifer Parr has purchased this beach house on the Gulf of Mexico for $21 million.

The home is situated on more than an acre of land and features eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms. It also has five garage spaces as well as a dedicated golf cart garage.

Outdoor amenities include a coral stone patio encompassing the heated, infinity-edge pool with lap lane, spa and a fire pit, all with gulf views. Coral Creek Airport and the Boca Grande Jet Center are just two miles from the island.

Of course, such a breathtaking purchase stirred conversation in Florida’s Friendliest Hometown with one reader lamenting that Jennifer Parr’s new $21 million home shows the gulf between us and them. However, another reader suggested that Parr has worked hard for her success and deserved to enjoy her $21 million dollar home.

Parr, the daughter of Gary Morse, is a vice president of The Villages and heads Properties of The Villages.
