David and Victoria Beckham Drop $80 Million on a Waterfront Mansion in Miami Beach
They already own a $20 million condo in downtown Miami’s ultra-luxe One Thousand Museum tower. Now word on the street has it that A-list couple David and Victoria Beckham are spreading their real estate wings over to the South Florida coast, having doled out $80 million for an all-new modern mansion overlooking Biscayne Bay on Miami Beach’s exclusive North Bay Road.
As first reported by The Real Deal, the Beckhams—he a retired soccer star-turned-co-owner of the MLS team Inter Miami, and she a fashion and beauty mogul who first gained popularity in the 1990s as a member of the pop group Spice Girls—are currently under contract to purchase the Choeff Levy Fischman-designed digs. The seller is Hamptons-based spec developer Niklas de la Motte, who picked up the property in 2018 for $10 million from the trust of the late Sir Edward Porter and his wife Lady Anna Lee, co-founders of Miami International Fine Arts College (now Miami International University of Art and Design). The listing is held by Dora Puig of Luxe Living Realty.
Lighted steps lead to the front door, which opens into 12,500 square feet of open-concept living space.

Nestled amid a gated parcel spanning over a half-acre, the Bart Reines-built abode that currently stands in the stead of a former 1920s Mediterranean-style house offers nine bedrooms and 13 baths in a little more than 12,500 square feet of living space on two levels. Stylish interiors by Antrobus Design Collective are adorned throughout with Ipe wood, Perlato marble, metal accents, and doors and windows framed in dark bronze, while posh amenities include an office, a movie theater, a gym and spa, and a rooftop deck providing bay and city skyline views, as well as a three-car garage with lifts and a private dock resting along 124 feet of waterfront footage.
Among the other standout features is a dramatic entryway boasting a pair of reflecting pools and a cascading waterfall, plus a central courtyard donning yet another reflecting pool complemented by a two-story living green wall. There’s also a spacious living room sporting a linear fireplace and floor-to-ceiling pocketing glass doors spilling outside, along with a formal dining room, a sleek gourmet kitchen with a trio of islands and a commercial-grade walk-in refrigerator, and an opulent primary suite decked out with a luxe bath flaunting dual vanities and a soaking tub.
Sitting out front are a duo of glassy reflecting pools and an attached three-car garage with lifts.

Rounding it all out are the palm-laced grounds, which host a lengthy infinity-edge pool abutting a marble-clad terrace spotlighted by a covered al fresco entertaining area with an outdoor kitchen.
In addition to their new Miami Beach home and their $20 million condo at downtown Miami’s Zaha Hadid-designed One Thousand Museum residential high-rise, the Beckhams also lay claim to a $40 million townhouse in London and a $15 million country estate in the Cotswolds. More
