Rapper Rick Ross Makes a Splash with $35M Waterfront Mansion Purchаse on Miami’s Star Island. Renowned rapper Rick Ross has recently made a move to the highly sought-after Star Island in Miami. After expressing interest in a beachfront property on the exclusive island, Ross has finalized the deal, acquiring a sprawling 40,000-square-foot mega-mansion for a staggering $35 million. Situated in the heart of the prestigious and closely guarded enclave, the property neighbors the opulent residences of high-profile personalities such as Diddy, billionaire Ken Griffen, Jennifer Lopez, and Gloria Estefan. The fact that Ross was able to secure a coveted piece of Star Island is remarkable, considering that the island has only 30 residences.

Represented by real estate agents Jill Eber, Jill Hertzberg, Felise Eber, and Fabio Lopes of The Jills Zeder Group, the seller expressed their delight in finding the perfect buyer for the property, emphasizing the exclusivity and allure of Star Island.

Describing Ross’s attraction to the estate, agent Kimberly Knausz of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty and Tawanda Roberts of Florida Realty of Miami highlighted his immediate admiration for the grand entrance and the long driveway, which exuded luxury. Additionally, the distinctive architecture captivated him, and he plans to enhance it to suit his personal taste.

The magnificent estate spans 12,374 square feet and features six bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and 100 feet of waterfront on Biscayne Bay. While there is currently a two-car garage on the premises, Ross will likely require additional space to accommodate his prized car collection. The property also includes a 40-foot dock with electric and water connections, perfect for Ross’s potential boating activities, including his renowned Lamborghini yacht.

Known for his extravagant parties, Ross will undoubtedly make use of the large swimming pool, outdoor kitchen, and expansive stone patio. The two-story mansion boasts a glass-enclosed foyer, a living room with 30-foot ceilings and a custom-made mahogany fireplace, a screening room, and a library. The chef’s kitchen showcases granite countertops, high-end appliances, a butler’s pantry, and a separate breakfast area.

For the rap star who appreciates the finer things in life, the primary suite is fit for royalty, featuring remote-controlled shutters, a wet bar, two walk-in closets, and dual marble bathrooms.

Rick Ross’s purchаse of the Star Island property exemplifies his penchant for luxury and marks his entrance into Miami’s affluent circle.
