Where Does Elin Nordegren Live? Her Palm Beach County Story

Where does Elin Nordegren live now? In Palm Beach Gardens, Florida: inside a gated golf community in Palm Beach County, one of the eight counties Pure Equity Realty serves. Nordegren's real estate story in this market actually spans two properties over a decade, and it's a case study in how Palm Beach County oceanfront values can move.

Key Takeaways

• Nordegren bought a North Palm Beach oceanfront lot for $12.2 million in 2011.
• She demolished the original structure and built a custom 21,000 sq ft estate. Total investment: reportedly $20 million+.
• She listed it at $49.5 million in 2018, then sold for about $33 million in 2020, a significant return on the build cost.
• The buyer flipped it for $48.2 million just a month later, illustrating Palm Beach County oceanfront demand.
• She now lives at a 13,523 sq ft estate inside Old Palm Golf Club in Palm Beach Gardens.

Chapter 1: The North Palm Beach build

In 2011, Nordegren purchased an oceanfront lot in the gated Seminole Landing community of North Palm Beach for a reported $12.2 million. The property had a 1920s structure on it, but it was demolished; a termite infestation and non-compliance with modern hurricane codes made it impractical to restore.

Over the following years she built a custom estate from scratch: 21,000 square feet, nine bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and about 200 feet of oceanfront on the Atlantic. According to Haute Residence, the total investment exceeded $20 million when land, demolition, and construction were tallied. Notable features included a 1,182 sq ft kitchen, a 1,000 sq ft master bedroom with ocean views, a stadium-seating theater, a gym, a wine room, a Koi pond, and a private putting green with two bunkers.

Chapter 2: The listing and the surprising sale

In March 2018, Nordegren listed the North Palm Beach estate at $49.5 million. After more than two years on the market, the property sold in September 2020 to Russell Weiner for roughly $33 million, per The Real Deal.

What happened next illustrated just how hot Palm Beach County oceanfront values had become: Weiner flipped both parcels (the oceanfront mansion plus an across-street home) to billionaire Robert F. Smith just one month later for a total of $48.2 million, according to The Real Deal, a 45% gain in 30 days.

Chapter 3: Palm Beach Gardens

Days after the North Palm Beach closing, Nordegren purchased a 13,523 sq ft estate inside Old Palm Golf Club in Palm Beach Gardens for $9.9 million, per The Real Deal (September 2020). The home sits on 2.09 acres with panoramic lake and golf views, a resort pool and spa, a covered outdoor kitchen, a 500-bottle wine room, a guest apartment, and 4.5 garages. Old Palm is a private, ultra-luxury golf community in Palm Beach Gardens built around a Raymond Floyd signature course.

As of 2025, no listing activity has been reported for the Palm Beach Gardens home, suggesting it remains her primary Florida residence.
