Of course, the conservative TV host\u2019s career disruption looks like a setback. But all is not completely lost for Carlson\u2014especially if you consider his real estate holdings.<\/p>\n<p>So, in light of the week\u2019s events, a small survey of his many homes up and down the country\u2019s Eastern Seaboard seems to be in order. Here\u2019s a look at the pundit\u2019s former and current properties.<\/p>\n<h2>Current: Boca Grande, FL<\/h2>\n<p>It seems Carlson has a penchant for this little Sunshine State village on Gasparilla Island, as he owns not just one property there\u2014but two. He first shelled out $2.9 million in January 2020 to live in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/realestateandhomes-search\/Boca-Grande_FL\">Boca Grande, FL ,<\/a> buying this four-bedroom, 4.5-bath, 2,870-square-foot dwelling, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dirt.com\/gallery\/entertainers\/influencers\/tucker-carlson-boca-grande-florida-house-next-door-1203631481\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dirt<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>Built in 1968<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">Realtor.com<\/p>\n<p>The 1960s home sits privately, surrounded by lots of tropical foliage (date palms, willows). It features terrazzo floors and cypress-wood decor. There\u2019s a fireplace and a renovated kitchen in the main house, as well as a separate one-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage near the courtyard pool.<\/p>\n<p>Just a couple of years later, in August 2022, Carlson quietly picked up a second \u201960s-era house right next door for $5.5 million, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dirt.com\/gallery\/entertainers\/influencers\/tucker-carlson-boca-grande-florida-house-next-door-1203631481\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dirt<\/a>. It\u2019s similar in size to the neighboring home, with three bedrooms and 3.5 baths, spread over about 2,800 square feet.<\/p>\n<h2>Current: Woodstock, ME<\/h2>\n<p>Carlson\u2019s real estate mantra just might be \u201cPalms in the winter, pines in the summer,\u201d as his Florida properties are nicely balanced by a hot-weather retreat in the cool woods of western Maine.<\/p>\n<p>The former news host has apparently spent decades summering in this tiny town in Oxford County, near Bryant Pond, and has owned a home there since September 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Carlson even bought a separate building he had reportedly planned to convert into a studio, so he could broadcast his shows without leaving the state. The <a href=\"https:\/\/wgme.com\/news\/local\/fox-news-host-tucker-carlson-buys-maine-garage-for-30k\">old garage<\/a>, which reportedly cost him $30,000, is just down the road from his home in Woodstock.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with his change in employment status, it\u2019s unclear what will become of this space. But <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangordailynews.com\/2023\/04\/25\/politics\/tucker-carlson-community-reactions\/\">according to reports<\/a>, the property is being kept up by a local groundskeeper for whenever Carlson decides to visit.<\/p>\n<h2>Former: Washington, DC<\/h2>\n<p>Carlson has owned two homes in the nation\u2019s capital, but both have been offloaded over the years. His <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/news\/celebrity-real-estate\/tucker-carlson-selling-washington-dc-home\/\">first sale<\/a>, in September 2017 for $2,040,000, was a nearly 4,800-square-foot, seven-bedroom, 5.5-bath manse, built in 1941. But he made just a tiny profit on the house, since he purchased it for $2 million in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Washington, DC, home sold in 2017<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">Realtor.com<\/p>\n<p>Carlson\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/news\/celebrity-real-estate\/tucker-carlson-selling-washington-dc-mansion\/\">second DC sale<\/a>, located just a mile away from his other DC property, came in July 2020. And it was also a wash, financially speaking.<\/p>\n<p>He paid $3,895,000 for the much larger five-bedroom, seven-bath home, spread over 7,400 square feet, but sold it for a mere $3,950,000.<\/p>\n<p>This mansion, below, looks almost exactly like his other one\u2014with the same window configuration and a bright red door, flanked by similar columns and side lights.<\/p>\n<p>Built in 1998<\/p>\n<p class=\"credit\">Realtor.com<\/p>\n<p><em>Randy White contributed to this report.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/news\/celebrity-real-estate\/tucker-carlsons-past-and-present-real-estate-portfolio\/\">A Look at Former Fox News Host Tucker Carlson\u2019s Past and Present Real Estate Portfolio<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/\">Real Estate News &amp; Insights | realtor.com\u00ae<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Realtor.com \/ Getty Images \/ Google He\u2019s no longer at Fox News, but he\u2019s certainly not without a home.
