Producer and social media star Khaled Mohamed Khaled, known to the world as DJ Khaled, is splurging on a big waterfront Miami Beach home, reports the Wall Street Journal. The report says that Khaled has signed a contract to purchase the house for some $25.9 million.
The property sits on about an acre of waterfront Miami Beach land, with 105 feet of waterfront altogether and a private dock on Indian Creek. The house itself measures in at 13,000 square feet, and inside boasts five bedrooms between its two stories.
It's difficult to imagine Khaled living in a house without plenty of amenities, and this house provides them. There's a high security "safe room," a private elevator, and a home movie theater. In the backyard, guests (and there's sure to be a lot of guests) will find an 80-foot swimming pool, a two story gazebo complete with winding staircase, and a cozy four bedroom guesthouse – the latter bringing the property's total bedroom/bathroom specs to nine bedrooms and ten and a half bathrooms.
Going back to the main house, the Los Angeles Times highlights its "expansive great room topped by Cumaru wood ceilings, a sleek dining room and a kitchen anchored by an oversized island," as well as the "mahogany-draped master suite [which] opens to a private balcony." You can take a look at Khaled's new digs below:
The final interesting detail of this sale has to do not with DJ Khaled or the property itself, but its current, soon to be former owner. It's Michael Lerner, who bought the land in 2013 for a little under $5 million before having the house built himself. If you don't recognize Lerner's name, you're still probably familiar with his most famous creation: The "Baby On Board" sign, hugely popular in the 1980s and still seen on some family automobiles today. He is reportedly selling the property because he plans to move to Palm Beach.
