Lifestyle Tour the Waterfront Estate Once Owned by ABBA


For fans of the iconic band ABBA, owning a property previously owned by the legendary group might be a dream come true. Now, if you have nearly $4M (£3.2M) to spare, you could become the proud owner of a sprawling waterfront estate in Florida, which reportedly served as a retreat for ABBA during their heyday.

Built in 1982, this remarkable estate is situated in the upscale island community of Tierra Verde in Florida. Its picturesque location on the edge of Tampa Bay, nestled within a charming waterfront community, made it the perfect escape for the Swedish quartet during London’s chilly winters.

While the 6-bedroom, 4-bathroom home’s interior may need a bit of updating, the stunning waterside views and idyllic surroundings more than make up for it. The pool area, in particular, offers breathtaking views, especially during a Florida sunset.

The property’s design was inspired by traditional Swedish longhouses, which gives it a unique and slightly narrow appearance. Inside, you’ll find Scandinavian-style decor, complete with a wood-paneled ceiling and a built-in hot tub in the “Florida room.”

The main living room boasts high ceilings and a grand stone fireplace, providing a wealth of potential for customization. The home features two mirrored floor plans, each with a downstairs master suite, loft area, and two bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom.

Although some updates are needed, recent improvements include a new roof with skylights for ample natural light, solar panels for energy efficiency, and hurricane protection for windows and sliders.

For those who appreciate ABBA’s music and history, this waterfront estate offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of pop culture nostalgia.
