Indian Creek Island is dubbed ‘Billionaire’s Bunker’ because of the high number of celebrities and high-rollers in the area, including Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner.
Only accessible by a bridge that’s manned by a guard, the island boasts 24-hour security by land, air and sea.
The 300-acre island is occupied by just 34 estates with a median value of $20million.
DailyMail.com previously revealed that the quarterback, reportedly worth over $500 million, didn’t put anything towards the purchase of the property, but chose to take out a mortgage for the full amount plus the option to borrow a further $17million.
When he and Bundchen split in October 2022, Brady took on the building’s renovations while Bündchen moved on to buy her own property across the waterway.
Before the split, Bündchen had paid $1.3 million for a three-bed waterfront home in Surfside, which she’s had remodeled, according to building records.
The 42-year-old then splashed out $11.5million on a five-bed, 6,600sqft property a few doors down from the smaller home and opposite her former husband’s home.
The former couple had aimed to build a forever home in Miami’s Indian Creek Country Club community for themselves and their children, John Edward, Benjamin, and Vivian.
The total cost of the house is set to be near $30million, as they paid $17million for the land and an additional $10.12million in building costs for the custom home.
