      Multiple potential reasons for the property value and ownership.

      Waterfront property is $$$, and $1.6m isn’t a surprising number, in fact it’s probably lower than a lot of places.

      It could have been a family property. That’s pretty common.

      Bought low a long time ago.

      Inheritance money.

      Spouse has a good paying job.

      Judge was a highly paid defense attorney before becoming a judge.

      And finally, I have no idea, do judges get paid a shitton?
