When a sale in Admirals Cove reaches the national real estate press, it is usually because something unusual happened. In April, The Real Deal and South Florida Business Journal reported on one of the most closely watched transactions of the year in Jupiter: Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Max Scherzer and his wife, Erica, sold their unfinished waterfront estate at 217 Commodore Drive for $23 million.

Rob Thomson of Waterfront Properties and Club Communities represented the buyers, Thomas and Kimberly Abrams of Northville, Michigan. Holly Meyer Lucas, Kimberly Thomson, and Courtney Payne of Compass held the listing.

The property sits on a roughly 0.7-acre lot with over 300 feet of water frontage, and the residence will span nearly 10,000 square feet…

Dustin Johnson, the No. 3 golfer in the world, this week paid $14 million for a waterfront home in Jupiter’s exclusive Admirals Cove, a real estate broker confirmed.

Johnson is the new owner of 389 Eagle Dr., a 10,134-square-foot house that has five bedrooms, eight bathrooms and 110 feet water frontage that can accommodate an 80-foot boat.

Police, Firefighters and Elected Officials in Tequesta cut the ribbon to open a new fitness facility for first responders donated by Jupiter Realtor Rob Thomson.  The old station gym shared by Police and Firefighters in the Village of Tequesta was small, dated and lacking new equipment.

Hundreds of families in Riviera Beach are getting a special surprise for Easter weekend.

A truck pulled up to New Macedonia Baptist Church on Saturday and delivered 500 colorful Easter baskets filled with toys and chocolate candy.

Jupiter realtor Rob Thomson wanted to share one of his fondest childhood memories with families who may be struggling this year. That’s what motivated him to donate the Easter baskets.

“So many kids go without Christmas, Easter. My kids are blessed and they don’t go without and you just want to help other people’s kids who may not be receiving it,” said Thomson.

The rest of the baskets will be delivered on Sunday.
