Pharrell finally sells Miami penthouse!

By
Real Estate Agent with Beachfront Realty 3220434

Pharrell Williams must finally "be happy" – the producer and singer-songwriter sold his Brickell penthouse for $9.25 million.

After being on and off the market since 2012, Williams finally sold the two-story unit at the Bristol, at 2127 Brickell Avenue. His former penthouse, with spiral staircase that leads up to a translucent dome, has five bedrooms, six and a half bathrooms, seven parking spaces, a rooftop terrace with a pool and summer kitchen, and a home theater.

Williams first listed the 9,000-square-foot unit in 2012 for $16.8 million, then reduced it to to $10.9 million which I reported on last year.

County tax roll records show  paid $12.525 million for the unit, which previously belonged to developer Ugo Colombo, in 2007. Colombo developed the 146-unit building in 1993.

Very cool house Marco Giancola , was it greatly overpriced that it took so long to sell?

It was let's say ambitiously priced. He ended up loosing like $2.5-3M @ the end of the day.

Marco ... I sense the happy meter would depend on what he first paid for the penthouse.  I see from your comment above that he did take a little loss on it. What's 2-3 Million for Pharrell

Marco,

I am sure Pharrell can absorb that loss.  He won't be able to find that in LA at that price...A

What an amazing Architecturally stunning building! But I sure wouldn't want to be responsible for utilities, maintenance, taxes, insurance, etc. I don't envy the rich and famous and I would hope they all come down to earth and live like real people for a change. The best part I read is that he relocated with his family to L.A. If he makes them his top priority then I'll continue to respect him. I'm so sick and tired hearing about divorce wars between entertainers. This sounds like a great win-win for Pharrell.

Although I love the true spiral stairs I'd be putting in a pneumatic vacuum elevator to wisk me up to the dome. I hadn't seen your posts in a while and thought I'd stop by Marco.
