Real estate heavyweights Phil Gutman, Ian Bruce Eichner, and Isaac Toledano explain why Florida's "Condo 3.0" bill is a must (Fox News Digital). Seeking a piece of musical history? Tom Petty's former beach retreat home, 5372 Atlantic View, is now up for grabs on Anastasia Island for a cool $3,245,000 (FoxBusiness).

Luke Newcomer, Newcomer Group co-founder and listing agent, describes the location as a "high elevation, strong dune protection haven with some of the best beaches in the region." The 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom beachfront oasis offers coveted features such as a private pool, direct beach access, and short-term rental zoning, making it a prime choice for either a permanent residence or an investment property.

Ocean properties across Florida come in a range of prices, from a modest $300,000 to a whopping $7 million, depending on location and property type (Realtor.com).

Newcomer worked with the current homeowner after purchasing the property from Petty, who also received two additional lots in the deal. The restoration project preserved the home's original charm while upgrading its plumbing, electrical systems, roofing, resurfaced pool, and rebuilt private beach boardwalk. Savvy Buyers have been drawn to this property since its listing, with many being ardent Petty fans.

Spanning over 3,200 square feet, the home blends indoor and outdoor spaces harmoniously. The home also features expansive windows and multiple outdoor balconies, offering sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. As Newcomer remarks, "As fans of his music and legacy, it's been incredibly rewarding to help bring this piece of history back to life for the next chapter and new owner."
