Another Fox News personality is headed to the Sunshine State, and possibly Palm Beach County, where he is linked to a property in Jupiter Inlet Colony.
Longtime co-host Steve Doocy announced this week he is stepping away from the 'Fox & Friends' morning show and relocating to Florida full time. The 68-year-old was clear he's not retiring, but after decades of waking up at 3:30 a.m. to drive into New York City from New Jersey, he's ready for a later start time.
According to Megan Albano, Fox News Media's executive vice president of morning programming and program development, Doocy will be traveling cities across the country where he will co-host from "diners to pickleball courts and more."
'I am not retiring. I'm not leaving the show. I'm still a host, but it's time for a change," Doocy said May 1 on 'Fox & Friends.'
Doocy and his wife bought a home in the tony beachside community of Jupiter Inlet Colony in 2014 for $1.01 million. The nearly 2,600-square-foot home with four bedrooms and a pool was quitclaim-deeded to a land trust in 2020 for $10, but it remains homesteaded in Doocy's wife's name, according to the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser.
In Florida, having a homestead exemption on a home means you consider it your primary residence. A quitclaim deed is often used for nonsale transactions such as adding a spouse on a title or transferring property within the family or to a trust.
Jupiter Inlet Colony is about 17 miles north of West Palm Beach. It was incorporated in 1959 and had a population of 425 in 2023
Doocy follows fellow Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Bret Baier to Florida. Both Hannity and Baier have homes in Palm Beach. Hannity also owns a home in Manalapan.
Baier hosts Fox News' "Special Report with Bret Baier" and is the network's chief political anchor. Baier and his wife, Amy, bought their home in 6,700-square-foot home in 2023 for $37 million.
Hannity, who hosts "The Sean Hannity Show," owns an oceanfront townhome in Palm Beach and is believed to have used an ownership company in 2024 to buy an ocean-to-lake estate in Manalapan for $23.5 million.
Doocy's move to Florida will put him closer to President Donald Trump's residence and private club Mar-a-Lago. High-profile Trump fan Kid Rock also owns a home in Jupiter Inlet Colony.
'I'll be going from the Carolinas to the Keys. From Middle America to Mar-a-Lago. Call me the coast-to-coast host," Doocy said. 'You may never see me in a necktie again.'
The home in Jupiter Inlet Colony was built in 1981 and is a ranch-style cinderblock house with a two-car garage — modest compared to the homes of Baier and Hannity. The home isn't waterfront, but is sandwiched between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean.
The online real estate brokerage Redfin estimates its current sales value at $2.86 million.
