Ben Carson's palatial pad in West Palm Beach sells for $920,000
"The 6,155-square-foot house holds its own when it comes to gilded details. Marble floors, 22-foot-high ceilings and ornate hand-painted inlays are among appointments of note. Pillars and wrought-iron work add embellishment to the staircase. Living spaces include a formal dining room, a breakfast area, a family room, a media room, five bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms."
"A two-story wall of windows in the living room takes in a view of the swimming pool. The property previously changed hands in 2013 for $775,000. It had been listed for sale for as much as $1.2 million, records show. The three-car attached garage has enough room to park an extra golf cart."
"Carson, 65, in March was sworn in as the 17th secretary of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Earlier this year he reportedly bought a new home a little closer to the White House - a 6,400-square-foot traditional in Vienna, Va."
