Premier Estate Properties is proud to be featured in The Real Deal for the sale of one of Palm Beach’s most storied residences — the former home of legendary architect John Volk, sold for $27.5 million by Estate Agent Jim McCann, who represented the sellers.
Built in the 1920s and set within Phipps Plaza, one of Palm Beach’s few historically designated enclaves, the 9,300-square-foot residence offers seven bedrooms, eight full baths and three half-baths. The estate emerged last year from a meticulous four-year restoration that honored its provenance while elevating it for modern living — a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Palm Beach architectural history.
Volk, the Austrian-born architect who helped define Palm Beach’s early aesthetic, designed for families including the Vanderbilts and Pulitzers, and his firm led the celebrated 1940s restoration of The Breakers. His own former residence stands among the island’s most coveted addresses.
As The Real Deal reports, the sale closed on August 18, 2026. The transaction underscores the enduring strength of Palm Beach’s historic estate market and the trusted counsel Premier Estate Properties’ Estate Agents bring to the most significant properties in South Florida.
