Comedian and actor Kevin James paid $17.2 million for a mansion in Boca Raton<\/a>, The Real Deal has learned.\u00a0<\/p>\n

James, of \u201cThe King of Queens\u201d fame, bought a six-bedroom, eight-and-a-half-bathroom home on Sabal Palm Drive in the Royal Palm<\/a> Yacht and Country Club, according to a source.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A trust managed by Peter Ciregna, Marco and Maria Cervi-Capocci, and John Lombardi sold the home. The property previously traded for about $5 million in 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

James\u2019 new home spans 8,685 square feet and includes five balconies, a home office with an attached club room, a temperature-controlled wine room, and a great room with a bar. It was completed last year by Primo Construction. The 0.3-acre property also includes a four-car garage with space for a golf cart, a gym with a sauna and a pool.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The price works out to $1,980 per square foot.<\/p>\n

Jackie Feldman with One Sotheby\u2019s International Realty represented the seller. Douglas Elliman\u2019s Jason Matouk represented the buyer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club is Boca Raton\u2019s most expensive neighborhood<\/a> and the center of the city\u2019s luxury sales. Last year, a waterfront mansion in Royal Palm traded hands for $31.5 million, one of the priciest in the neighborhood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

James, who played the titular \u201cPaul Blart: Mall Cop,\u201d has owned homes in South Florida before. In 2021, he paid $14 million<\/a> for an oceanfront estate in Delray Beach. In 2016, he sold<\/a> another oceanfront mansion nearby for $26 million.<\/p>\n

The actor, whose legal name is Kevin Knipfing, also starred in or had roles in \u201cPlaydate,\u201d \u201cHitch\u201d and \u201cGrown Ups.\u201d<\/p>\n
