Rapper Rick Ross Reportedly Grabbing a $37.5M Oceanfront Mansion in Miami
Rapper Rick Ross (whose given name is William Leonard Roberts II) must have a big bag of money: He’s reported to be in contract for a mansion on Miami’s famed Star Island.
Celebrity neighbors there include Gloria Estefan and Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is said to have gifted Ross a golf cart as a welcome to the luxe enclave, according to The Real Deal.
Listed for $37.5 million, the 9,747-square-foot estate boasts six bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms. The record executive’s exclusive new digs span nearly an acre and boast 100 feet of prime water frontage. The pricey property is currently in “pending sale” status.
Built for a boss, the sophisticated mansion was designed to impress. Beyond the guard-gated entry, an extra-long driveway leads to the opulent residence.
