$1.8 Million Homes in Florida, Tennessee and New Mexico

West Palm Beach, Fla. | $1.75 Million

A Mediterranean-style house built in 1930, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a guesthouse, on a 0.3-acre lot

Built after the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane destroyed countless structures in the area, this house was designed with steel girders and window frames to withstand high winds. It sits on a corner lot with mixed-use zoning, so it could be used not only as a single-family home, but also as a small inn. (The detached guesthouse is already used as a short-term vacation rental.)

The property is less than 15 minutes from Palm Beach. Palm Beach International Airport is a 20-minute drive, and Miami is about 90 minutes south.

Size: 2,788 square feet

Price per square foot: $628

Indoors: From the sidewalk, a paved path leads through a yard landscaped with lawn, low hedges and palm trees, to the main entrance.

The front door opens into a tiled foyer that separates the living and dining rooms. The living room, on the left, has hardwood floors, a fireplace with an ornate mantel and access to a sunroom with a cypress ceiling. The dining room opposite has arched windows overlooking the grounds. A breakfast room with built-in shelving is also off the foyer.

The adjacent kitchen has a farmhouse-style sink, stained-glass windows and access to a butler’s pantry, a tiled laundry room and a full bathroom.

All three bedrooms are on the second floor. At the top of the stair landing is an en suite guest room big enough to hold a queen-size bed. At the far end of this level are the primary bedroom, which also has an en suite bathroom, and a second guest room; they share a long terrace with ample space for lounging.

The detached guesthouse has a kitchen and a full bathroom.

Outdoor space: The property has several patios, one used for dining and another with a stone fountain. The guesthouse across the back lawn has a private patio with a canopy for shade. The detached garage holds two cars.

Taxes: $8,328 (estimated)

Knoxville, Tenn. | $1.75 Million

An 1836 farmhouse with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, on 11 acres

Dollywood, the theme park partially owned by the country music singer and songwriter Dolly Parton, is about an hour’s drive.

To the right of the foyer is a long hallway with an original walnut flying staircase. On one side of the hall is a formal dining room with a fireplace and built-in storage for china and glassware. Across the hall is a living room with another fireplace and access to a spacious kitchen with cabinets built by the sellers and stainless steel appliances, including a Fisher & Paykel range. The kitchen has access to the back porch and to the main hallway.

Another hallway, to the left of the front door, leads to a study and to a second staircase to the floor above. The primary suite is at the top of this staircase, with a fireplace and a bathroom that has a soaking tub and a separate shower. Next door is a guest bathroom with a claw-foot tub. At the end of the hall, near the main staircase, are two more bedrooms, both with decorative fireplaces.
