Life is Good for Rapper Future Who Recently Purchased a Waterfront Miami Beach Mansion for $“16.3 Million

Award-winning rapper, Future just purchased a stunning waterfront property on Allison Island for $16.3 million.

The singer-songwriter, whose real name is Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn, purchased the 7,250-square-foot, seven-bedroom residence at 6493 Allison Road in Miami Beach. The property was sold by Pascale and Laurent Ouazana. Laurent Ouazana was the CEO of Entoria, one of the biggest insurance brokers in France, and is currently a board member.

According to the listing, the Allison Island estate was originally listed at a $19.9 million asking price. The 2020-built property has a three-car garage, 75 feet of water frontage, staff quarters, a detached guest house, a pool, and cabanas.

This large house includes an elevator, a rooftop terrace, Ornare kitchen cabinetry, stunning dual closets, and a private courtyard entrance.

With more than 8,500 square feet, it includes a detached guest suite, media room, 3 car garage, and 6 bedrooms in addition to staff quarters. You can experience magnificent sunrises, ocean breezes, and close proximity to schools, country clubs, and in-demand Sunset Harbour & Bal Harbour businesses if you are located deep within this exclusive enclave of only 49 waterfront houses.

The property, which was a portion of a double lot, was purchased by the Ouazanas for $12.5 million in 2020. The pair paid $7.9 million for the other site at 6505 Allison Road, which was sold to developer Todd Michael Glaser and his associates Scott Robins and Jonathan Fryd. On the property, they intend to construct a 10,000-square-foot mid-century modern home.

Booba, a French rapper, paid $6.1 million to Komodo and Gekko investor Nick Smith in October for the mansion he owned in Miami Beach. Lil Wayne has recently listed his Allison Island home for $29.5 million.

Delicate Modern House by the Designers of Stuart Miller’s Gigantic Star Island Supervillain Lair Mansions Asks $12.49M

Whatever other buildings they’ve done, whether good or bad, Domo Architecture is a little notorious on Miami’s architecture scene for designing some absolutely ridiculous homes on Star Island for Lennar development mogul Stuart Miller. This includes the latest and biggest, a 70,000 square foot (yes 70,000) pile of sinuous concrete forms wrapping around a private jungle. Another Domo design, however, at 6411 Allison Road on Allison Island, coming in at a ‘mere’ 8,500 square feet, is a much more subtle and even an intellectual building.

From the front all that’s visible is a louvered box with levels of indoor-outdoor living, both permeable by and protected from the outside world. Facing he water, the light airy box has been mirrored by its opposite, a glass box set in a deep, heavy concrete frame in blistering white. It’s the old ying yang, an architectural trope used extensively since time immemorial. Funny thing though, after 191 days on the market the Allison Island home hasn’t sold yet, and is currently asking $12,490,000.
