A waterfront Miami mansion designed by the late Gianni Versace’s favorite architect has finally sold for $13 million, Gimme Shelter reports exclusively.
The sprawling estate on the Venetian Isles first hit the market for $20 million in 2019 and was last asking $13.5 million. The villa at 921 N Venetian Drive is a massive 27,250 square feet and comes with 175 feet on Biscayne Bay.
It was designed by Lorenzo Carmellini, the Milan-based architect who created Versace’s homes and boutiques — often with his late partner, Rocco Magnoli. This home, built with imported Italian materials and artisans, took almost eight years to complete. The materials alone cost $6 million, the brokers say.
Details include Carrara marble floors, onyx bathrooms, elaborate wood work, coffered ceilings, a formal dining room, a large outdoor kitchen, a mosaic swimming pool — and a deep water dock big enough for a yacht.
