‘Prime’ property on exclusive Florida island that would make Jeff Bezos your neighbor goes on sale for $200M

A vacant waterfront plot of land in South Florida, adjacent to one of Jeff Bezos’ mansions, has been put up for sale for $200 million.

The 1.84-acre property is located in the exclusive village of Indian Creek, a man-made barrier island in Miami-Dade County with just 41 homes.

The parcel of land, located at 9 Indian Creek Island Road, was put up for sale less than two weeks ago, according to the real estate listing.

The property comes with 200 feet of water frontage on Biscayne Bay, offering the future owner great views of downtown Miami.

But perhaps one of the most interesting things about the property is that the potential buyer would be building his home next to a Bezos home.

The Amazon founder owns three properties on the island, located at 11, 12 and 28 Indian Creek Island Road. He reportedly paid $237 million for the properties.

Indian Creek is one of the “wealthiest, most luxurious and safest communities” in the world. The village is known as ‘Billionaire Bunker’ thanks to its mega-rich residents, a mix of celebrities and business magnates.

At an asking price of $200 million, the next owners of 9 Indian Creek Island Road will spend approximately $108.7 million per acre to own land on the ultra-exclusive island.

Ilya Reznik, a listing agent with Reznik Group, told the New York Post that the plot is the “perfect place to build your dream home” and that a “conceptual design-build plan” for a 25,000 sq ft estate designed by famed billionaire builder Manny Angelo Varas will be available to buyers.

In addition to a large estate, the parcel will provide future owners with enough space to build a deep-water dock large enough to accommodate a 180-foot megayacht, Reznik said.

Residents will also be provided with high-level security as the 300-hectare island is monitored 24/7 by its own police force and maritime control.

In addition, subsequent residents will have the opportunity to join the island’s country club and 18-hole golf course.

Reznik said the current owners purchased the lot in 2018 for $27.5 million were ‘planning to build on the property’, ‘but then plans changed and they decided to sell’.

The sellers, whom he described as “private individuals,” do not want to reveal their identities.

But Reznik added that it is “more interesting to know that the land is next to Bezos than who the seller is.”

Bezos bought a third mansion on the exclusive island earlier this year, bringing his total investment in the area, known as the ‘Billionaire Bunker’, to $237 million.

Amazon founder agreed to pay $90 million for six-bedroom home in off-market transaction Bloomberg. The waterfront property on the strictly gated island features a large front lawn and an outdoor swimming pool.

The property is on the opposite side of the island from the two adjacent houses he bought last year.

Bezos acquired two mansions on the ultra-exclusive island last year, one for $68 million in June and the other for $79 million in October.

He is believed to be living in the third mansion while the two mansions are being demolished.

Bezos has been expanding his real estate portfolio since his engagement to Lauren Sanchez last year.

The third mansion in Bezos’ Indian Creek Island portfolio last sold in 1998 for $2.5 million, according to property records.

Indian Creek has previously attracted the likes of Jay-Z and Beyoncé, as well as current resident investors Carl Icahn and Jared Kushner.

Kushner and former first daughter Ivanka Trump bought their home in April 2021 for $24 million and spent more than two years renovating it.

Carl Icahn reportedly bought his mansion in 1997 for $7.5 million, while Colombian banker Jaime Gilinski collected five properties to build an estate for his family.

Football star Tom Brady and his then-supermodel wife Gisele Bündchen also built an “eco-mansion” in the community before their divorce.

Spanish singer Julio Iglesias is a long-time resident of the island and owns several properties, having moved there in the 1970s.
