In a recent development, Jeff Bezos has significantly expanded his already extensive real estate holdings in Florida, acquiring a neighboring property for a substantial sum of $79 million. This acquisition follows his purchase of a lavish mansion near Miami Beach for $68 million last summer, indicating his apparent interest in hosting extravagant events on Miami Beach, as reported by PEOPLE.
The recently acquired property, constructed in 2000, is situated on a sprawling two-acre lot and boasts an impressive seven bedrooms. It features a range of luxurious amenities, including a wine cellar, a state-of-the-art home theater, a pristine swimming pool, and a stylish cabana. An insider commented on this latest acquisition, stating, “Bezos paid $79 million for his neighbor’s house this week.
He must have grand plans for Miami Beach.” In total, Jeff Bezos has invested a staggering $147 million in opulent real estate in this coveted region of Florida, which is also home to other notable figures such as Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Tom Brady, and musician Julio Iglesias.
When questioned about the sale, the real estate agents responsible for the transaction, Dina Goldentayer and Danilo Tavares of Douglas Elliman, chose not to disclose any details. It’s worth noting that Jeff Bezos,
accompanied by his fiancée, the Emmy Award-winning journalist Lauren Sanchez, celebrated their engagement on the picturesque Amalfi Coast of Italy in August. This marked a significant public milestone in their relationship, which commenced in January 2019, shortly after Jeff’s divorce from MacKenzie Scott, ending their 25-year marriage.
