Tech mogul Mark Zuckerberg and his wife have just bought one of the most expensive homes in U.S. history. The Meta CEO and Priscilla Chan closed the $170 million deal on Indian Creek Island in Miami-Dade County, Florida, on Monday. It’s a new record for the county, although the U.S. record for the largest house sale ever is still held by Citadel CEO Ken Griffin, who bought a New York apartment in 2019 for $238 million, The Wall Street Journal reports. The two-acre site on which the new Zuckerberg house was built was acquired in 2020 by a cosmetic surgeon to the rich and famous for $40 million. Dr. Aaron Rollins and his real estate agent wife, Marine Rollins, filed plans for a nine-bedroom home, sprawling across 30,000 square feet, complete with a swimming pool and dock. The Journal also reports that it has a “gym, hair salon and massage room, as well as a 1,500-gallon aquarium and a library with a secret passageway.”
