Mark Zuckerberg is reportedly adding to his growing list of luxury homes with a waterfront property in the most in-demand section of one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in America.

The Meta CEO and his wife, Dr. Priscilla Chan, are reportedly purchasing a recently completed luxury mansion on Indian Creek Island, a 300-acre, man-made island near Miami with a mere 41 lots and approximately 84 residents, the Wall Street Journal reported. Home prices on the island start at about $60 million, and the market price for a property like Zuckerberg’s ranges from $150 million to $200 million, Mick Duchon, a Miami Beach–based real estate agent with the Corcoran Group who specializes in high-end waterfront properties, told Fortune.

Even an undeveloped property can fetch big bucks on the island: One vacant lot roughly the same size as Zuckerberg’s sold for a reported $105 million in 2025.

The property Zuckerberg reportedly purchased at 2 Indian Creek Island Road puts him in the most coveted area of the already exclusive island, Duchon said. On the western side of the island, where Zuckerberg’s property is reportedly located, lots are about 80,000 square feet, compared with about 50,000 square feet on the east side, according to Duchon. On this side, where Amazon founder and fellow billionaire Jeff Bezos also owns two lots, residents have better access to the open water of Biscayne Bay and a more expansive view with great sunsets, he added.  

“That side of the island is perceived to be the most appealing,” Duchon said.

Bezos has been buying up properties on Indian Creek Island since he announced in 2023 he was leaving Seattle for Florida. The Amazon founder first purchased a $68 million home that would end up being just a few doors down from Zuckerberg’s in 2023. Near the end of that year, he paid another $79 million for a neighboring property with the intention of combining the lots into a single compound—a trend Duchon said is increasingly common among wealthy buyers because of the scarcity of truly expansive waterfront properties in the area. Meanwhile, Bezos is living in a third Mediterranean-style property also on Indian Creek Island, on the east side, which he snapped up for $87 million in 2024. Last year, Bezos sold one of his Seattle homes overlooking Lake Washington for a record $63 million, the Puget Sound Business Journal reported.

Indian Creek Island operates as an independent municipality with its own government and private police who patrol by air, water, and sky. Access to the island is controlled by a single gated bridge, making safety and privacy a defining feature. Most of the island’s interior comprises an 18-hole golf course and the Indian Creek Country Club, with a limited number of members owing, in part, to a difficult admissions process and a $500,000 initiation fee.

It’s unclear whether Zuckerberg’s deal has closed yet. Miami-Dade County property records note the owner as a land trust. One of Zuckerberg’s future neighbors, Irma Braman, wife of billionaire car dealer Norman Braman, told the Journal Zuckerberg said he planned to move into the property by April. 

Meta did not immediately respond to Fortune’s request for comment.

Zuckerberg is the latest billionaire to pick up a Florida property, especially as a proposed ballot initiative gains steam in California that would impose a one-time 5% “billionaires tax” for any individual worth at least $1 billion dollars retroactive to Jan. 1, 2026. (To be sure, Zuckerberg still very much calls California home, having just invested $50 million through Meta for a Sacramento downtown revitalization and AI-focused project.) Google cofounder Larry Page also recently snagged a $173 million compound in Miami consisting of two waterfront lots in the city’s Coconut Grove neighborhood.

Indian Creek Island, in particular, is home to a number of high-profile names, who, besides Bezos, include the financier Carl Icahn and former NFL quarterback Tom Brady. 

Zuckerberg’s reported newest property is just the latest addition to the tech CEO’s growing portfolio of luxury homes across the U.S.

Palo Alto compound

Zuckerberg’s home base remains Palo Alto, where, according to the New York Times, he owns 11 properties in the Crescent Park neighborhood. Over more than a decade, Zuckerberg has poured $110 million into buying adjacent properties, in some cases drawing complaints from his neighbors.

Hawaiian estate

On the island of Kauai, about 100 miles northwest of Honolulu, Zuckerberg owns a $300 million property commonly known as Koʻolau Ranch, spanning roughly 1,400 acres. He quietly added about 1,000 additional acres to the compound last year, Architectural Digest reported, bringing his total Kauai holdings to more than 2,300 acres. 

The ranch is one of Zuckerberg’s most secretive properties. Almost anyone who passes the compound security, including builders and other workers, must sign nondisclosure agreements, Wired reported. The ranch reportedly includes a 5,000-square-foot underground shelter with its own energy source.

Lake Tahoe retreat

Zuckerberg created his own mountain compound in the Lake Tahoe area through the purchase of two adjacent estates in Tahoe City on the lake’s West Shore. Lake Tahoe, in the Sierra Nevada mountains between Nevada and California, has emerged as a popular destination for billionaires seeking a retreat, with both Google cofounder Sergey Brin as well as 2020 presidential candidate Tom Steyer owning homes there.

Zuckerberg bought the properties—known as Carousel Estate and Brushwood Estate—for a total of $59 million, or $22 million and $37 million, respectively, according to multiple reports. The Brushwood Estate dates back to the early 1900s and has only had two other owners, according to SFGate. The property has six bedrooms, five full baths, and a 2,293-square-foot guesthouse.

Washington, D.C., mansion

As Meta and Zuckerberg have engaged more with policymakers in Washington, D.C., during the Trump administration, the tech CEO reportedly picked up a $23 million mansion in Washington D.C.’s exclusive Woodland-Normanstone neighborhood, Politico reported. The 15,000-square-foot mansion features brick and limestone walls and glass enclosed “walkways.”
