Mixing A New Deal

DJ Khaled’s over-the-top luxurious mansion has finally found a new owner. The three-story property, which was originally listed for $7.99 million in 2018, recently sold to a Florida-based tech mogul for an undisclosed amount (the most recent asking price was $5.99 million), the New York Post reports. Situated on a half-acre lot on a private island in a gated community called Island Estates, the home comprises five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, with an elevator that travels between all three floors.

Khaled, a Grammy-winning producer famous for hits like “All I Do Is Win.” originally bought the Mediterranean-style home for $3.84 million in 2015, but poured an additional $2.5 million into upgrades and renovations over the years, so that it now unmistakably reflects his high-end taste and aesthetic. Among those luxurious additions are 14-karat-gold chandeliers with Swarovski crystals, an impressive walk-in shoe closet with floor-to-ceiling shelves custom-built to hold Khaled’s extensive sneaker collection, and a purple-velvet-lined master suite with an elevated platform for the bed.

Other rooms of note include a velvet-paneled home theater with a coffered ceiling, a wine cellar, a home office with mahogany detailing, and an eye-catching formal living room with a carved wood mantel fireplace and double-height windows that nearly reach the ceilings. The back of the home abuts Biscayne Bay, with a sizable pool, hot tub, fire pit, bamboo grove, and 50-foot boat dock standing between the house and the water. Khaled now resides in a different Miami Beach waterfront mansion designed by Cesar Molina, which he bought in 2018 for $25.9 million.
