Nick Saban Purchases Jupiter Island Home for $17.5 Million

Alabama football coach Nick Saban has purchased a 1.68-acre property on Jupiter Island in Florida for $17.5 million. The 6,200-square-foot home has views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Saban acquired the six-bedroom home through a Delaware-based limited liability company called At High Tide, according to WPTV. His new three-story home has tropical gardens, water features, flat lawn and entertaining areas, multiple decks and terraces with seating and dining areas, a guest suite with a kitchenette and its own entrance, a three-car garage, a whole-house generator, floor-to-ceiling glass walls.

The Hobe Sound property stretches 150 feet of coastline from the Intracoastal Waterway to the Atlantic Ocean. Saban, 71, has coached Alabama football since 2007, but his ties to South Florida include his time spent as head coach of the NFL’s Miami Dolphins from 2005-2006.

“This property spans ocean to Intracoastal, which is very rare,” said the home’s listing agent Joanne Wagner Hughes of Corcoran real estate. “With no commercial businesses on the island, this is just a wonderful place to be. We have a lot of high-profile people here, but it’s all very low-key, not flashy at all. Hobe Sound has always been a hidden treasure.”

Other stars to have purchased homes in Jupiter Island include golfer Tiger Woods, Greg Norman, Gary Player, and singer Celine Dion. MLB pitcher Max Scherzer also bought a Jupiter mansion for $15 million earlier this year.

In 2022, Alabama signed Saban to an eight-year contract extension worth $93.6 million to make him the highest-paid coach in college sports.
