Miley Cyrus buys $1.8 million condo in South Walton

**jm964cab** · 12-09-2010, 09:45 AM

Evidently the secret is out that Miley Cyrus purchased a Gulf Front condo in Walton County for $1.8 million. From the pictures it sure looks like it's on 30A. Anybody know exactly where it is located.

**scooterbug44** · 12-09-2010, 09:48 AM

No, but if she comes here and behaves herself and isn't looking for attention (unlike some other celebs) I hope people leave her alone.

**Smiling JOe** · 12-09-2010, 09:55 AM

I sure wish that celebrities could come to SoWal to get away from the fans/stalkers and enjoy a somewhat normal time when they are out and about.

**beachmouse** · 12-09-2010, 10:01 AM

Many of them do; others seem to think they're supposed to invite the press along in an attempt to stay relevant. *cough* Brittany Spears *cough*

**jm964cab** · 12-09-2010, 10:17 AM

After looking more closely at the pictures it is a house on a bluff so therefore it must be located between Seagrove Beach and Seaside. You can tell by the walk way that the home sits up pretty high. No other bluffs that high on 30A.

**jodiFL** · 12-09-2010, 11:24 AM

looks more like Bella Vita or Adagio to me. I know a couple of pretty popular folks that have places there. But when they are here they just want to be treated like anyone else.

**Smiling JOe** · 12-09-2010, 11:25 AM

Okay, let's step back for a moment and really think about this.
Miley is a celebrity and her dad is a celebrity, and people want to know about celebrities. I get that.

Celebrities buying homes in SoWal are news worthy, and probably good for real estate sales promotion. I get that.

I would guess Miley Cyrus to be about 17-18 years old. You are trying to learn where she lives? Do you also want to see where she will be taking baths? Most likely, you just want to know for the other reasons I mentioned above, but it sure could be viewed as "stalking," and if she is a minor, that might make it even worse and perhaps a crime. I'd be very careful when you start digging into where someone lives as you never know how others may perceive your innocent actions.

**scooterbug44** · 12-09-2010, 11:26 AM

She's not a minor, but I still find it creepy.

**Jdarg** · 12-09-2010, 11:30 AM

She will more likely be stalked by a herd of elementary school-age girls.

Some of your pictures could be seen as creepy, I mean little girls in bathing suits on the beach?

**SWGB** · 12-09-2010, 11:38 AM

Who cares if she's bought a condo here, odds are you might see her once a year when her and daddy are doing something over at the christian camp on Front Beach Road. I'd like to know where someone would find a condo for that price currently. Sounds like someone saw her coming.

**scooterbug44** · 12-09-2010, 11:46 AM

I am SO glad I am not famous.

**miznotebook** · 12-09-2010, 12:03 PM

Good points made. I for one will not bug her unless she gives a press conference, not that I am a member of the fan club--and have nothing against her either.
The probable address is out in a local publication. Had posted a link but deleted it shortly.

If you think that people on the beach in normal beach situations are creepy, please stay off the beach. I'm not trying to find out where an 18 year old lives to post on the internet.

**joho** · 12-09-2010, 12:25 PM

What comes to mind is Sheryl Crow buying a home in Blue Mountain Beach a couple of years ago. She'd stop by some of the local establishments when she was in town, she drinks bud light.
One night several drunks started harrassing her home and the police were called. She moved.
She still owns a home in Sowal but behind a gated wall.

She hasn't been here in a while, the weeds are starting to get a little out of control.

You completely missed my point.

**beachmouse** · 12-09-2010, 01:02 PM

If anyone's dying of curiousity, the address has been published in the NWF Daily News, which also notes a sale date of 2009.

**Douglas the Intrepid** · 12-09-2010, 01:03 PM

You ARE famous Scooterbug! You didn't see the Scooterbug shrine on Facebook!? lol ;)

**SWGB** · 12-09-2010, 01:04 PM

Now that I see where she bought, she got totally hosed. It also got the description wrong. Those condos offered either a media room or home gym option, not both.

**jm964cab** · 12-09-2010, 02:16 PM

The only reason I brought it up is because 30A is growing in popularity as more and more celebrities are moving here. I think that is good for the tourist trade here which helps all of us. We will be the "in place" to vacation. Might help me keep my condos rented. Did anybody read what Mike Huckabee said, "living here is a dream" referring to his new primary residence in Blue Mountain Beach. Like he also said the people here are different, which means he can live here and not be pestered by everyone. We have a very nice laid back community. Not like South Beach which he rejected as a place to live. Nobody wants to stalk Miley Cyrus, that's the most absurd thing I ever heard. How do you come up with that. She will find that nobody here cares that she lives here. I was just curious as to which home she bought and it is nice to know that celebrities also consider 30A the greatest place to live thanks to the beaches, the restaurants, the people, and everything else that we all love about Sowal.

**scooterbug44** · 12-09-2010, 03:05 PM

You announced it on the internet and tried to get an exact location - not exactly low key or respecting privacy.

Most of us had no idea until you posted.

And still don't care.

**kurt** · 12-09-2010, 03:20 PM

I have heard of her. Wouldn't know her if she sat on my lap and asked me for a Christmas present. Word has it she has a post count.

**John R** · 12-09-2010, 03:35 PM

who is milee cirus?

**beasette** · 12-09-2010, 03:47 PM

All I know is that now my beach access has a lock with a code on it to get to "our" beach.....all because she wanted the beach around her condo to be less accessible to "stalkers & Paparazzi"! But it's a small price to pay to live in paradise!

**Arkiehawg** · 12-09-2010, 04:26 PM

Yea....with this economy, life is getting tough for everyone...

Hang in there....

Thanks for the clarification

But hey, 30-A property purchase and flipping go together like red beans and rice.

**beasmiester** · 12-09-2010, 05:34 PM

Hey...if this young lady can plop down that amount of "Disney" money, she deserves her priviacy just like the rest of us. As far as the locked beach access, it's a small inconvienience for living in paradise.
I do agree that the only stalkers that she will have to worry about are the teens and tweens, once they find out where she is.
Please, when you finally figure out, find out, or guess her location, "Do not publish it here or anywhere else." Let our new neighbor, have her moments of peace and quiet hee in paradise.

All I want to know is - does she babysit?..

Too late for that...TMZ & the local mullet wrapper has published all the info including photos inside the condo (ohhh...lots o'GCTs & SS!) and a link to the county records

Reports: Miley Cyrus 'secretly' bought condo in Walton County | condo, county, miley - News - Northwest Florida Daily News

...not that it really matters.

Nice job Shelly!

**SWGB** · 12-10-2010, 01:15 AM

Wow, did they get those photos off the original website or did a realtor forward them from a listing?

You might remember her from her "early work" circa 2001-2005

.

**SWGB** · 12-10-2010, 01:18 AM

If that doesn't help, just remember that she was the under age girl who did a strip pole dance for daddy on the Teen Choice Awards.

**tsutcli** · 12-10-2010, 06:17 AM

Andante, 8334 Co. Hwy. 30-A. It's right across the street from us and Miley was here (at least that's what I heard) last year and closed at a local bank.

**tsutcli** · 12-10-2010, 06:58 AM

Original price for those units was 2.8 so she got a real deal! However, I guess financing was not an issue. Ha!

**NunYa** · 12-10-2010, 07:00 AM

Yet again, another reason for people NOT to buy here.
She has been visiting here as long as I have been here.
I seem to remember, maybe two years ago or so, someone posted on here actually, that she was spotted at Watercolor Publix Shopping.
I mean really??

**GoodWitch58** · 12-10-2010, 09:32 AM

what I don't get is the yearlong delay in this "news"...I remember hearing about this last year when she closed on the deal....

and it was hardly a secret closing whatever that might be...I hope people will leave her alone and let her enjoy the beach.

Huckabee, on the other hand, seems to be looking for all the attention he can get.

**Douglas the Intrepid** · 12-10-2010, 09:59 AM

Who cares if a celebrity buys and shops here NunYa? The area is very beautiful and special and everyone should be able to enjoy it.

**Will B** · 12-10-2010, 10:23 AM

Well, from the pictures, it looks like a nice place that she'll be able to use to host parties where she can hit her bong with reckless abandon!

I heard the same, Andante--wow--she paid waaay too much. Whatever.

**Paula** · 12-10-2010, 12:46 PM

I think Miley Cyrus has great taste to buy in SoWal. As for her as a public figure, I'm happy to give the young woman a break. My kids enjoyed her show when they were young, and it was fun to watch it as a family. Now she has to figure out how to make her own way as a young woman and a professional, and it's better to be trying on different "identities" as a young adult than go crazy as an older adult. (Frankly, I'm still looking forward to having my teenage rebellion, several decades too late because I didn't do it as a young adult, but it will be fun and I hope to have some of this rebellion in SoWal

).

Let's hope she loves SoWal as much as most of us do and that she becomes a thoughtful and enjoyable member of the SoWal community who gets to relax and enjoy some privacy along with the white sand, emerald water, and good food.

So, I say welcome, Miley.

**rheffron** · 12-10-2010, 02:35 PM

I heard she has multiply Personalities : )

**Miss Kitty** · 12-10-2010, 06:48 PM

I think she should change the name to 'Partying on 30A'
