Sean 'Diddy' Combs Sells 1 Star Island Waterfront Estate for $55 Million
Sean "Diddy" Combs has sold one of his two waterfront estates on Miami Beach's prestigious Star Island in an off-market transaction valued at $55 million, according to property records. The sale involves the bayfront residence at 1 Star Island Drive, a property Combs acquired in 2021 for $35 million. Public records show the seller was an entity tied to Combs, while the buyer is JFStar LLC, a Virginia-based company led by John A. Franklin.
Sean "Diddy" Combs has sold one of his two waterfront estates on Miami Beach's prestigious Star Island in an off-market transaction valued at $55 million, according to property records.
The sale involves the bayfront residence at 1 Star Island Drive, a property Combs acquired in 2021 for $35 million. Public records show the seller was an entity tied to Combs, while the buyer is JFStar LLC, a Virginia-based company led by John A. Franklin. The acquisition was financed in part with an $18.5 million loan from Axos Bank.
The sale price is approximately $20 million higher than the property's recorded 2021 purchase price. Property records also indicate Combs continues to own the neighboring estate at 2 Star Island Drive.
The property traded in an off-market transaction, a common approach for many of South Florida's highest-priced residential sales, where privacy often takes priority over traditional public marketing.
Situated on approximately 1.3 acres at the entrance to Star Island, the estate offers roughly 240 feet of Biscayne Bay frontage and panoramic views of the Miami skyline. The property includes a two-story main residence and separate guest house totaling nearly 8,000 square feet of living space.
Originally constructed in 1940 and expanded in the mid-1990s, the compound features a private dock, swimming pool and spa, outdoor entertaining areas, and recreational amenities including a basketball court.
Before acquiring the property, the estate had long been owned by Gloria and Emilio Estefan, who used it as a guest residence while maintaining their primary Star Island home nearby. The couple sold the property to Combs in 2021 for $35 million, the purchase was financed with a $20.7 million loan from Bank of America.
The sale is the latest notable transaction on Star Island, where limited inventory and high-profile ownership continue to attract ultra-high-net-worth buyers. The approximately 30-home island remains one of South Florida's most exclusive residential addresses, with record-breaking sales and continued demand reinforcing its position among the country's premier luxury waterfront communities.

Kobi Karp-Designed Edge House Miami Completes Foundation Pour, Begins Vertical Construction in Edgewater
Edge House Miami, the 57-story luxury residential tower rising in Miami's rapidly evolving Edgewater neighborhood, has reached a major construction milestone with the completion of its foundation pour, setting the stage for the project to begin its vertical ascent over the Biscayne Bay skyline.
Edge House Miami, the 57-story luxury residential tower rising in Miami's rapidly evolving Edgewater neighborhood, has reached a major construction milestone with the completion of its foundation pour, setting the stage for the project to begin its vertical ascent over the Biscayne Bay skyline.
Developed by internationally recognized Grupo T&C, the achievement represents one of the most significant phases of the construction process and underscores the continued momentum behind the Edge House, which is currently under active construction at 1837 NE 4th Avenue. Led by Thornton Construction Company, the foundation pour required more than 7,000 cubic yards of concrete delivered by over 700 concrete trucks during a continuous 30-plus-hour pour.
"This is an incredibly proud moment for our entire team," said William Ticona, General Manager of Grupo T&C. "For more than two decades, Grupo T&C has delivered residential communities throughout Peru, and Edge House represents an important part of our long-term vision in Miami. We are excited to continue expanding our presence in one of the world's most dynamic real estate markets."
Designed by internationally renowned architect Kobi Karp with interiors by Adriana Hoyos Design Studio, Edge House Miami is a luxury home-sharing condominium designed for flexible ownership to meet the needs of today's global buyer. Upon completion, the tower will deliver 608 fully furnished residences, including studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts, many featuring lockout configurations that provide owners with additional flexibility for personal use and rental opportunities.
"This is a significant step forward that transitions Edge House from a vision into a tangible landmark on the Miami skyline," said Jay Phillip Parker, CEO of Brokerage, Douglas Elliman’s Florida Region and President of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, Florida. "The demand for sophisticated, flexible-ownership properties in Edgewater has never been higher. Today's global buyers want world-class design and turnkey convenience, and Edge House delivers exactly that in one of the city's most desirable waterfront neighborhoods."
The project's robust amenity offering includes a resort-style pool deck, wellness and fitness facilities, co-working and collaboration spaces, a professional-grade podcast studio, golf putting green, kids playground, owners' lounges, and hospitality-inspired services designed to support modern lifestyles.
The news comes as Edgewater continues to establish itself as one of Miami's fastest-growing residential neighborhoods, with billions of dollars in new development underway along Biscayne Bay. Once viewed primarily as a connector between Downtown, Midtown, Wynwood, and the Design District, the neighborhood has emerged as a residential destination, attracting a new generation of luxury and branded developments.
Douglas Elliman Development Marketing is the exclusive sales and marketing representative for Edge House Miami. Units are competitively priced, starting in the $550,000s, with completion anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2028.

The project also features landscape design by Naturalficial.
Residents will enjoy access to a suite of amenities including a rooftop pool, sky bar, artisanal cafe, spa and serene meditation courtyard, fitness studio and a private rooftop lounge offering panoramic views of the Southeast Gables.

Development Spotlight: Tula Residences North Bay Village
Among the projects helping define the evolution of North Bay Village is Tula Residences, a refined collection of just 54 luxury homes overlooking Biscayne Bay. Developed by Bayshore Grove Capital in partnership with Pacific & Orient Properties, the 21-story tower combines contemporary architecture, expansive corner residences, and wellness-focused amenities within an intimate waterfront setting.
Few emerging waterfront communities in South Florida are experiencing as much transformation as North Bay Village. Positioned between Miami and Miami Beach, the three-island community is quickly evolving into one of the region's next luxury residential destinations, attracting a new generation of boutique waterfront developments.
Among the projects helping define that evolution is Tula Residences, a refined collection of just 54 luxury homes overlooking Biscayne Bay. Developed by Bayshore Grove Capital in partnership with Pacific & Orient Properties, the 21-story tower combines contemporary architecture, expansive corner residences, and wellness-focused amenities within an intimate waterfront setting. As construction progresses, Tula represents both the resurgence of a long-anticipated project and the continued emergence of North Bay Village as one of South Florida's most compelling luxury real estate markets. The tower is already under construction with an expected completion in 2027.
Project Overview
As North Bay Village enters a new era of waterfront redevelopment, Tula Residences is helping define its future. Rising directly on Biscayne Bay at 7918 West Drive, the boutique condominium introduces 54 luxury residences within a thoughtfully designed 21-story tower that blends privacy, architecture, and wellness-focused living.
Developed by Bayshore Grove Capital in partnership with Pacific & Orient Properties, Tula is one of the first new luxury condominium developments to move forward in North Bay Village in more than a decade. With construction actively underway, the project represents an important milestone in the transformation of the three-island community into one of South Florida's emerging luxury waterfront destinations.
Why It Matters
North Bay Village has quietly become one of South Florida's most closely watched redevelopment markets. Positioned between Miami and Miami Beach, the island community offers waterfront living with exceptional accessibility while remaining significantly more intimate than many neighboring luxury markets.
Tula arrives at a pivotal moment for the neighborhood, introducing boutique-scale luxury residences that emphasize spacious floor plans, expansive outdoor living, and panoramic Biscayne Bay views. As one of the first new condominium developments to advance during the area's renaissance, the project is helping establish a new benchmark for residential design and quality in North Bay Village.
Architecture & Design
Designed by M77R (Matter), Tula embraces contemporary waterfront architecture through soft curves, expansive glass, and sculptural wraparound terraces that maximize views from every residence.
The building's distinctive "corner-only" floor plan ensures abundant natural light and panoramic exposures throughout while creating a more private residential experience with only four residences per typical floor.
Interiors by Shannon Farrell Design feature warm natural materials, refined detailing, and an understated palette inspired by coastal living. Kitchens showcase marble countertops and backsplashes, bespoke millwork, and fully integrated Miele appliances, while primary bathrooms feature sculptural stone finishes, custom vanities, and spa-inspired detailing.
Residences
Tula offers an exclusive collection of just 54 residences, including six penthouses occupying the tower's upper levels. Pricing starts at $1.9 million with sales overseen by Brown Harris Stevens.
Residence highlights include:
Two-bedroom, two-bedroom plus den, and three-bedroom residences
Approximately 1,590 to 2,440 square feet
Six penthouses ranging from approximately 3,700 to 4,140 square feet
All residences are corner homes
Expansive wraparound glass terraces
10-foot ceilings
Floor-to-ceiling windows
Custom European flooring
Fully integrated Miele appliance packages
Walk-in laundry rooms
Panoramic Biscayne Bay, city and ocean views where available
Amenities
Designed around wellness and everyday waterfront living, Tula's amenity collection balances relaxation, entertainment, and hospitality.
Amenities include:
Resort-style waterfront pool with landscaped deck and private cabanas
Grand lobby with 24-hour concierge
Residents' lounge overlooking Biscayne Bay
Private dining room with warming kitchen
State-of-the-art fitness center
Wellness center
Media room
Dog spa
Bayfront promenade access
Skyline club room and gathering spaces
Location
Located at 7918 West Drive on Harbor Island, Tula enjoys a prime waterfront setting in North Bay Village with direct Biscayne Bay frontage.
Residents are minutes from Miami Beach, Bal Harbour, the Design District, Midtown Miami, Wynwood, Downtown Miami, and Miami International Airport while enjoying a quieter residential setting that has become increasingly attractive to luxury buyers seeking waterfront living with convenient regional access.
Team
Tula Residences is developed by Bayshore Grove Capital, led by Vivian Dimond, in partnership with Pacific & Orient Properties. The project represents the revitalization of a previously stalled development and reflects Bayshore Grove Capital's vision of delivering a boutique luxury waterfront community that complements North Bay Village's ongoing evolution.
Tula Residences features architecture by M77R (Matter), interiors by Shannon Farrell Design, and landscape architecture by H.L. Martin Landscape Architects. Exclusive sales are led by Brown Harris Stevens Development Sales.

New Construction Home in Miami's Bay Point Neighborhood Sells For Record-Setting $27.25 Million
Casa Moderne, a newly completed waterfront residence at 790 Lake Road in Miami's exclusive Bay Point neighborhood, has sold for a record $27.25 million. The transaction establishes a new record-setting canal-front price per square foot in Bay Point at $4,284 per square foot.
Casa Moderne, a newly completed waterfront residence at 790 Lake Road in Miami's exclusive Bay Point neighborhood, has sold for a record $27.25 million. The transaction establishes a new record-setting canal-front price per square foot in Bay Point at $4,284 per square foot, reflecting not only the continued demand for luxury waterfront real estate in Miami, but also how the luxury buyer relocating to the area today is fundamentally different from the buyer from a decade ago. Today’s buyers are not looking for a project—they are looking for certainty. They want exceptional architecture, thoughtful design and a home they can enjoy immediately as their most valuable currency is time.
The transaction was overseen by Ana Teresa Rodriguez, founder and CEO of ATR Luxury Homes Group at Coldwell Banker Realty who listed the property. The buyer was represented by Cyril Matz with Douglas Elliman.
Offered fully furnished, the six-bedroom Casa Moderne includes seven full bathrooms and one powder room and spans 6,361 square feet on a 13,532-square-foot waterfront lot. The move-in ready residence features Bay Point's only grandfathered rooftop terrace with panoramic 360-degree views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline, along with custom millwork, a private dock, an infinity-edge pool with spa, chef's kitchen, elevator, air-conditioned garage and designer furnishings by Minotti and Fendi.
The sale is a testament to a significant appreciation in the property's value over time. Originally acquired in 1976 for approximately $125,000, the property was purchased in 2012 by Adonel Concrete CEO Luis García for $1.9 million as his personal residence. In 2016, García offered the property for sale either as an existing residence for $9.98 million or as a redevelopment opportunity with approved plans for approximately $15 million.
After reassessing the long-term potential of the site, García decided to take the listing off the market, demolish the existing home and pursue a full ground-up redevelopment. The new home was envisioned and creatively directed by ATR Concepts, a division of ATR Luxury Homes Group.
Today, the sale of Casa Moderne for $27.25 million underscores the considerable increase in value of premier waterfront real estate in Miami due to the continued migration of wealth to South Florida following COVID and the impact of Florida’s tax advantages. It is also an indication of the strength of Miami's ultra-luxury residential market, where turnkey waterfront properties attract strong buyer demand.
Located in the gated Bay Point neighborhood, Casa Moderne sits on a private waterfront cul-de-sac just moments from Biscayne Bay and offers convenient access to the Miami Design District, Wynwood, Edgewater, Brickell, Miami Beach, Miami International Airport and several of Miami's top private schools. Bay Point, one of Miami’s best-kept secrets, quietly offers something incredibly rare: a private community of approximately 250 homes, owned and operated by its homeowners, with exceptional security, privacy, and one of the most central waterfront locations in the city.
“What was once considered an undervalued hidden gem has evolved into one of South Florida's most sought-after luxury communities,” said Rodriguez. “Buyers today increasingly recognize what longtime residents and investors understood years ago. Bay Point offers an extraordinary combination of exclusivity, privacy, security and accessibility. It now belongs in the same conversation as South Florida’s most exclusive private enclaves.”
“I believed in Bay Point long before it became one of Miami’s most sought-after luxury communities,” said García. “What attracted me from the beginning was its privacy, security, waterfront lifestyle, and central location. I always felt the market would eventually recognize what made this neighborhood so special.”

Oleta Partners, a joint venture by leading developers LeFrak and Turnberry, have revealed SoLé Mia’s floating pickleball court located on its seven-acre Crystal Lagoon, marking the largest and first installation of its kind at a residential property. Custom-built by Inflatable Island, the leading designer and manufacturer of innovative aquatic entertainment and luxury floating structures, the SoLé Mia-branded court expands the 184-acre North Miami development’s outdoor lifestyle offerings and reinforces its position as a wellness-driven, walkable destination centered around recreation, connectivity and community.
“From the beginning, SoLé Mia has been designed to deliver a lifestyle that brings people outdoors and creates meaningful opportunities for recreation, wellness and connection,” said Mario Gaztambide, Senior Managing Director of Residential Properties at LeFrak. “This floating pickleball court is a natural extension of that vision, offering residents and visitors a truly unique amenity that activates the Crystal Lagoon in a new way and reinforces SoLé Mia as one of North Miami’s most dynamic lifestyle destinations.”
Spanning 69 by 33 feet, the court is located on Laguna SoLé, SoLé Mia’s swimmable, freshwater lagoon, and is available exclusively to residents and their accompanied guests. Open Friday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., weather permitting, court access is offered on a first-come, first-served basis and managed by the property’s lifeguard team. Residents can enjoy one-hour sessions for singles or doubles play, with life jackets, paddles and ball provided.
The court features SoLé Mia’s signature branding directly on the playing surface, with vibrant blue coloring designed to complement the lagoon’s shimmering waters while creating a distinctive visual identity. For residents, the amenity provides a highly unique recreational experience, combining a regulation pickleball court with access to South Florida’s only Crystal Lagoon within a residential setting.
The debut builds on SoLé Mia’s broader commitment to outdoor connectivity, including the recent expansion of The Loop, its walking path network. The Loop now not only wraps around Laguna SoLé but extends throughout the property and connects residents to nearby Oleta River State Park and Florida International University’s Biscayne Bay campus, creating seamless access to more than 1,000 acres of green space, trails and active lifestyle destinations. Set between Biscayne Boulevard and Biscayne Bay, SoLé Mia brings together luxury residences, open space, recreation, shopping, dining and wellness offerings centered around its Crystal Lagoon and sandy beaches.
The new court and expanded walking paths arrive amid continued growth at SoLé Mia, where more than 1,000 residents already live across The Shoreline, Villa Solé, Villa Laguna, and ONE Park Tower. The $4 billion, 184-acre master-planned development also features a newly expanded half-acre park with Kompan-designed playgrounds; Reserve Padel at SoLé Mia, offering indoor and outdoor courts, a gym, sauna, steam room, cold plunges and an on-site Pura Vida; UHealth SoLé Mia, the University of Miami Health System’s 363,000-square-foot ambulatory medical facility; Sesame Bakery; a 17,500-square-foot dog park; and miles of jogging and bike paths across 37 acres of landscaped open space.
SoLé Mia will continue expanding with Mater Academy SoLé Mia, a K-5 charter school, as well as additional residential, dining and retail offerings underway, further advancing its vision as a walkable, wellness-driven destination for residents and the surrounding North Miami community.

According to the development team, the purchaser is an existing Palm Beach resident seeking to upgrade to a larger primary residence while remaining in the area.

Mr. C Hotel & Residences West Palm Beach is the fastest-selling new development in West Palm Beach having surpassed 85% in sales. The project, slated for 2027 completion, also began vertical construction this year. Mr. C Hotel & Residences West Palm Beach is part of the prominent Mr. C luxury hospitality, hotel, and residential brand created by brothers Ignazio and Maggio Cipriani and is being developed by Terra, a prominent real estate development company in South Florida, and Sympatico, a Palm Beach-based firm owned by the Morrison family.

Designed by renowned architecture firm Arquitectonica, with interiors by award-winning design studio Meyer Davis, the 27-story development will feature 110 hotel suites and 146 branded residences, which include a collection of turnkey, move-in-ready resort residences.

That walkability, combined with Mr. C’s signature hospitality-driven lifestyle, continues to attract both local and out-of-state buyers seeking a seamless, turnkey living experience.”
A highly personalized service experience is led by a professional hospitality team offering housekeeping, pet care, in-home dining, package handling, and travel coordination.

Development Spotlight: Ponce Park Coral Gables
Few locations in South Florida offer the combination of architectural heritage, walkability, and enduring value found in the heart of Coral Gables. Rising directly across from Ponce Circle Park, Ponce Park represents one of the city's most significant new mixed-use developments, combining luxury residences, destination retail, and public realm improvements within one thoughtfully designed address.
Few locations in South Florida offer the combination of architectural heritage, walkability, and enduring value found in the heart of Coral Gables. Rising directly across from Ponce Circle Park, Ponce Park represents one of the city's most significant new mixed-use developments, combining luxury residences, destination retail, and public realm improvements within one thoughtfully designed address.
Developed by The Allen Morris Company, the project has been envisioned as a long-term addition to Downtown Coral Gables—one that respects the city's architectural character while introducing a contemporary level of luxury and mixed-use activation.
Project Overview
Ponce Park is an 11-story mixed-use development located at the intersection of Ponce de Leon Boulevard and University Drive in Downtown Coral Gables. The project brings together a boutique collection of luxury residences above premium retail space, creating a walkable destination designed to complement the surrounding neighborhood.
Beyond the building itself, the development includes significant enhancements to the adjacent Ponce Circle Park, reinforcing the connection between architecture, public space, and the pedestrian experience that defines Coral Gables.
Why It Matters
Ponce Park represents the continued evolution of Downtown Coral Gables into one of South Florida's premier mixed-use urban neighborhoods.
Unlike many large-scale luxury towers throughout the region, the project embraces a boutique scale while emphasizing timeless architecture, curated retail, and public gathering spaces. The development also demonstrates the continued strength of the Coral Gables luxury residential market, where limited new inventory and enduring demand continue to support premium pricing. When delivered Ponce Park Coral Gables will be the highest end condominium in Downtown Coral Gables.
Its combination of residential, office, retail, and public improvements reflects a growing trend toward mixed-use environments designed for both residents and the surrounding community.
Architecture & Design
Designed by John Cunningham of Zyscovich Architects, Ponce Park draws inspiration from the historic Mediterranean Revival architecture that has defined Coral Gables for more than a century.
The building incorporates handcrafted materials, natural stone, arched openings, landscaped terraces, and architectural detailing intended to create a timeless rather than trend-driven design. The development team recently traveled to Italy to personally select the stone that will define the project, establishing a direct connection between Ponce Park and the historic quarries from which its materials originate.
Interior design is led by Meyer Davis, whose hospitality-inspired approach emphasizes warm materials, refined finishes, and understated luxury throughout the residences and shared amenity spaces.
