Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen to Build Mansion on Miami’s ‘Billionaire Bunker’

If you’re looking for exclusivity, it doesn’t get any better than Miami’s Indian Creek Island. The private horseshoe-shaped land mass with just 34 homes has been termed a “billionaire bunker” — and with good reason. Residents include billionaire investor Carl Icahn, supermodel Adriana Lima, and Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, who just snapped up Julio Iglesias’ vacant plot of land for $31 million. And the latest monied couple set to sprinkle their celebrity pixie dust over the sunbaked island are perennial luxury real estate aces Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen, who just threw down $17 million for a teardown home.

As was first reported in the New York Post, the couple purchased a 5,172-square-foot, five-bedroom and five-bathroom property on a nearly two-acre lot on the tiny island. They plan to demolish the current structure and build an eco-friendly dream house loosely resembling the Brentwood mansion they sold to Dr. Dre in 2014. Having traded teams and climates from the wintery New England Patriots to the balmy Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the six-time Super Bowl winning quarterback has been seriously keen to put down roots under the Florida sun, where he and the Brazilian supermodel have been renting Derek Jeter’s titanic Tampa mansion.
