Fay took out a $3 million mortgage with Fifth Third Bank for the purchase. 

The St. Pete Catalyst previously reported the home was pending a sale. 

The listing agent is Rafal Wazio of Coldwell Banker Realty. Wazio declined to comment on the purchase and details on the new homeowner.

The home was listed on the market for $4.65 million.

The property last changed hands in 2017 for $3 million. The 2017 transaction was made through the Hawker Investment Trust, which is a trust with Travolta’s sister Ellen Bannon as the lead trustee.

The 4,346-square-foot house was built in 1988. It features panoramic views of the Clearwater harbor that can be admired from outside where there is an infinity-edge pool and dock.
