Fox News presenter Sean Hannity is pressing ahead with plans to combine two neighbouring beachfront townhouses he purchased for $20.5 million in Palm Beach, Florida, into one large home.

Public records show Hannity finalised the legal process in May through a “unity of title” filing, allowing the properties to be treated as a single lot. The broadcaster, who has declared Palm Beach as his primary residence, first bought a three-bedroom townhouse at 9 Sloan’s Curve Drive for $5.6 million in April 2021. He followed this with the purchase of the adjoining two-bedroom property at 10 Sloan’s Curve Drive for $14.9 million in January this year.

The combined property, facing directly onto the beach, will span more than 11,200 square feet across its interior and exterior spaces. Together, the lots cover about four-tenths of an acre.

On 25 September, the town’s Architectural Commission approved Hannity’s proposal to merge the two outdoor pool areas into a single patio. The plans involve removing one swimming pool, altering the other, relocating equipment and adding a summer kitchen and outdoor shower. The outdoor project, designed by Environment Design Group, was approved unanimously by the commission without discussion.

The approval follows earlier permissions granted to Hannity for additional expansion work. In November 2022, the board approved a guest-room extension to No. 9, and in April this year, it gave the same consent for No. 10.

The Residences of Sloan’s Curve, where Hannity’s properties are located, is a gated enclave built in the early 1980s, containing 15 townhouses and seven homes. It sits roughly three miles south of Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, which Hannity has frequently visited.

According to published reports, Hannity has been an active buyer and seller of real estate. In November 2024, he reportedly paid $23.5 million for a separate ocean-to-lake estate in Manalapan, south of Palm Beach, while in June the same year he sold his New York home on Long Island for $12.69 million.
