Rapper Rick Ross is under contract to purchase a $37 million mansion in Miami’s guard-gated community of Star Island. Kimberly Knausz of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty brokered the deal with Ross’s sister Tawanda Roberts, a Realtor with Florida Realty of Miami. The property was listed by Jill Eber, Jill Hertzberg, Felise Eber and Fabio Lopes of The Jills Zeder Group.
The 12,374-square-foot home contains six bedrooms, eight and a half baths and 100 feet of waterfront space. The 40,000-square foot lot also includes a heated pool, an outdoor summer kitchen and a 40-foot dock with direct ocean access.
Ross called the property “a major piece to the puzzle” of his real estate portfolio.
“He instantly fell in love with the grand entry,” Knausz shared in a news release. “It has a very long driveway stretching towards the mansion that creates an air of real luxury. The architecture also played a part as it’s far beyond the ordinary modern home, and he plans to enhance it to reflect his personal style.”
