Overview

  • An anonymous international finance executive contracted to buy the roughly two-acre lot at 9 West Indian Creek Road for $110 million after it was cut from an initial $200 million listing in December.
  • The parcel sits adjacent to Jeff Bezos’s three Indian Creek Island properties, which together total $237 million, on the gated 41-home community noted for its private police force and 18-hole golf course.
  • Buyers will inherit 200 feet of waterfront on Biscayne Bay with available concept plans for a 25,000-square-foot mansion and deep-water dock for a mega-yacht.
  • According to builder Manny Angelo Varas, the sale is scheduled to settle in mid-June and the buyer’s identity remains shielded by common use of LLCs and trusts in Florida real estate transactions.
  • Indian Creek Island—known as the ‘Billionaire Bunker’—is home to high-net-worth residents such as Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Tom Brady and Carl Icahn, underlining its draw for privacy and security.
