Diana Ross Puts Miami Waterfront Property On Market for $17.8 Million

Just two years after purchasing a waterfront property on Miami’s San Marco Island, Diana Ross is ready to sell her home to the tune of $17.8 million.

San Marco Island is one of the Venetian Islands located within Miami. The island is less than one mile long. In 2022, Ross purchased the home for $15.5 million. In the two years that she’s owned the property, Ross has invested an additional $1.2 million in upgrades to the property.

Ross who has a reported net worth of $250 million, also owns a residence in the secluded Belle Haven gated community in Greenwich, Connecticut. Named “Female Entertainer of the Century” in 1978 by Billboard, Ross’ career spans more than 60 years. At 80 years old, the singer and actress has released 25 albums and was once the lead singer in the Motown group The Supremes charting songs such as “Baby Love,” and “Stop! In the Name of Love.

In 1970,  Ross went single and also began her film career, acting in films such as “Lady Sings the Blues,” “Mahogany” and “The Wiz.” Ross was nominated for an Oscar for her portrayal of Billie Holiday in “Lady Sings the Blues” and 17 singles she released have reached the Billboard Top 40 with six reaching the No. 1 spot.

A Home For The Boss, Ms. Ross

The five-bedroom, five-bathroom home was built on the man-made island in 2017. Overlooking the Biscayne Bay, the residence sits on 10,500 square feet. Outside, there is a large, private boating dock and lift, an infinity pool, and a roof deck complete with panoramic views of Miami’s skyline.

Inside is an open-concept floor plan with slate flooring and recessed lighting are present throughout the home. The living room includes high ceilings and wide windows overlooking the water. Natural stone finishes, sculptured light fixtures, and a large center island give Ross’ kitchen a modern, chic appeal. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide the dining room with a sleek yet relaxing aesthetic. Also on the property is an office, laundry room, and one-car garage.

Upstairs, the bedrooms all include en suite bathrooms, walk-in closets, and oversized windows with views of Miami’s waterfront. Central heat and air along with security doors round out Ross’ home.
