After meeting you at the New York Fashion show last week, I understand that your celebrity status draws a lot of attention and you need some time for privacy.

Since you've been forced to sell your Hollywood Hills home and currently looking to buy a house in a gated community, you may want to consider Daytona Beach, Florida. It just may be your answer.


You said (about Hollywood Hills home)"I'm so sad I have to sell it because I've completely made it my own, and it's decorated perfectly for me.

"It's hard to move, but there are too many people who know where I live.

There's 20 tour buses coming a day. Random guys from all around the world just showing up and leaving things. I'm scared."

Daytona Beach is a low profile city on the Atlantic Coast, and yet it's near everything.

Daytona Beach International Airport is just 15 minutes away from the properties you could consider for your next purchase.  Some other airports in the Daytona Beach vicinity are

Hilton Daytona Beach Resort is just minutes away from the beach-side homes that I found for you.

When you want to go out and have fun it can easily arranged. Below are the links to night clubs in the area:

  • 4 Bedroom/2 baths at least
  • 4,000 sf or greater
  • Gated Community or enough land to create a zone of privacy
  • needs decent access to airport as she travels a lot
  • Must have a pool

20 Comments on Paris, Why You Should Purchase Your Next Home in Daytona Beach, FL

This is cool apart from the fact that Daytona Beach is a low profile city? Really??

09/12/2007 09:46 AM by Simon Conway (Picket Fence Realty)


It really is pretty quiet around here huh Anna? I bet she'd pick the first one!

09/12/2007 09:54 AM by Lysa Napolitano, Call Coordinator ~ Century 21 Sundance (Century 21 Sundance)


Anna...

Just wanted to let you know I was here.

Good luck in the contest.

TLW...ROAR!

09/12/2007 10:07 AM by "The Lovely Wife"...Broker Bryant's Wife... (Co-Owner Tutas Towne Realty, Inc.)


Simon,

Believe it or not, we have a looooooooooooooooot of wealthy people in the Daytona Beach area that prefer to keep their privacy to themselves and frequently this city is overlooked by others since there are jet setting cities near by, like Miami.

09/12/2007 10:23 AM by Anna Lukyanova (Century 21 Sundance Realty)


If I were Paris, I would pick #3 since it has helicopter pad and more land, thus privacy.

09/12/2007 10:24 AM by Anna Lukyanova (Century 21 Sundance Realty)


TLW,

glad to have you on board...Thanks for stopping by

09/12/2007 10:25 AM by Anna Lukyanova (Century 21 Sundance Realty)


Hi Anna - nice area info in your links, and no doubt Paris would be interested in the airports and the nightlife!

Love the pics of the houses you wrote about!

Good luck in the contest!

Ann,

Not all of the homes have the virtual tour, so I thought it would be unfair to the "contestants" if there were only partial inclusions. I have virtual tours on  all of my listings. Needless to say, the listings above "belong' to some other Realtors.

Some of these water-views are truly breathtaking. Much better in "real" life...

09/12/2007 10:34 AM by Anna Lukyanova (Century 21 Sundance Realty)


Great Post and I love the listings!  Hey Paris, If you want to check out Baltimore give me a call

09/12/2007 02:27 PM by Albuquerque Real Estate | Ashley Drake Gephart (Keller Williams Realty)


Wow, beautiful choice of homes you sent Paris. She should have no choice of finding one for her and her 5 dogs. Good luck, Anna, Great entry.
