Former NHL Star Ilya Kovalchuk Lists His Luxe $14.5M Miami Beach Condo
Ilya Kovalchuk, who skated to glory (and big bucks) in the NHL with a variety of teams, is hoping to unload his fab Miami Beach pad for $14.5 million.
The swanky condo on Fisher Island in the Sunshine State is a 3,620-square-foot, three-bedroom unit. Situated in the coveted Palazzo Della Luna building, the posh place offers sunny views of the water and greater Miami. Let’s take a look around the winger’s sweet residence.
Shiny oak floors, sleek surfaces, and a sedate color palette add up to a soothing modern home in the sky. A private elevator whisks you up to this gorgeous condo, which offers a wraparound terrace and enormous windows that perfectly frame the bay and Miami Beach.

The kitchen is by Boffi and includes appliances from Sub-Zero and Miele; a wine cooler; and a 16-foot, marble island for serving and entertaining. The main bedroom is a quiet retreat with balcony access and a spa-inspired bath with a deep, oval soaking tub and huge shower.
Fisher Island is a 216-acre, private property accessible only by water and exclusively at the invitation of a resident or hotel reservation.

Kovalchuk also owned a custom-built megamansion in New Jersey. That place came in handy when he played for the Devils from 2010 to 2013.
