There’s lots of sunlight in this garment-district loft, built in 1911. But if it’s sunshine year-round you want—and golf courses galore—you could instead opt for a four-bedroom mansion on BallenIsles (which means “all that is beautiful” in Gaelic, says listing broker Larry Pettit), a country-clubby community close to Palm Beach that’s home to Venus and Serena Williams. Sopranos fans, take note: Jamie-Lynn Sigler—a.k.a. Meadow—lived here in 2004 when she was married to her then-manager, A. J. Discala. According to the real-estate Website SouthFlorida.Blockshopper.com, they bought it in 2003 for $1.2 million.
