5 Must-Know Details About the Miami Mansion DJ Khaled Is Selling for $7.9M

DJ Khaled, record producer, sneaker collector, and social media star, is also known for his over-the-top real estate.

Now he’s selling his Miami mansion for $7.9 million. The luxe pad is crammed with the requisite baller amenities, but a few of the features are true standouts.

In a nod to his chart-topping success, we’re here to count down five fun facts about Khaled’s crib.

1. It had a multimillion-dollar face-lift

The 43-year-old picked up the property in 2015 for $3.59 million. Then he embarked on a major $2.5 million remodel. The luxe listing, which sits on a double-wide lot, is one of just 22 homes in the gated Island Estates community in Aventura, FL.

Built in 2001, the 6,697-square-foot home comes with five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and 240 feet of water frontage.

2. Sneaker closet offers serious swag

The renovation included a custom closet just for Khaled’s sneaker collection.

The built-ins on every wall stretch from floor to ceiling. Though the one-of-a-kind room is designed to hold 500 pairs of shoes, Khaled’s collection has outgrown this space.

And in case you’re unclear on who owns this impressive array of kicks, the closet bears his signature slogan, “We the Best,” on the floor. The next owners can bring their own collection of kicks, Birkin bags, or troll dolls, but these sneakers are departing with the DJ.

3. Luxe details abound

Go ahead and swing from the chandeliers, if you dare! They’re 14-karat gold with Swarovski crystals, and hang from ceilings reaching 30 feet. They’re also equipped with a system that lowers them for cleaning and lightbulb changes.

Other details include wide open spaces with floor-to-ceiling windows, an elevator, dramatic foyers, a granite staircase, wine room, chef’s kitchen, as well as a master suite with sitting area and veranda with water views.

The smart home system runs on an iPad, and the home theater comes with a 128-inch screen and seating for 30.

“This property is unique,” says listing agent Janet Ben Zvi of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty. “It’s all about l’amour. I think it will be a very easy sell.”

She adds that the decor and furnishings can be negotiated into the sale price.

4. Outdoors is where the party’s at

The outdoor paradise includes a tropical pool and spa overlooking the bay. The lounge space has a TV and fire pit, and it’s where Khaled hosted many celebrity-studded parties.

The home also includes golf cart parking and a 50-foot boat dock.

5. Khaled has plenty of places to stay

Though Khaled is selling this home, according to the Wall Street Journal, in September he picked up a $25.9 million Miami Beach mansion with an 80-foot pool and 105 feet of water frontage. The 13,000-square-foot home has five bedrooms, an elevator, safe room, home theater, and guesthouse.

And if business requires him to be in Hollywood, he’s covered on that front. Khaled purchased the L.A.home of singer Robbie Williams for $9.9 million in January 2017.
