Photos of Lionel Messi’s magnificent home that have never been publicized before have provided new insight into the World Cup winner’s opulent lifestyle in Florida.
After agreeing to a two-and-a-half-year contract of $50–60 million per season, the soccer player joined David Beckham’s Major League Soccer team, Inter Miami, and moved to Florida in the summer.
The Argentine and his wife Antonella purchased a massive $10.75 million mansion in Fort Lauderdale in September, having lived in a $9 million condominium within a short distance from “golden beach” for the first several months.
The opulent residence features a swimming pool, two boat docks, a spa, and ten bedrooms.
Situated in the private hamlet of Bay Colony, one of the floating neighborhoods north of Fort Lauderdale, is the 10,500 square foot house.

Fortunately, Inter Miami’s DRV PNK Stadium and training camp are only a 15-minute drive away from it, situated just off the beach.
It is situated on the canals that wind through South Florida and has a swimming pool that is right next to the water’s edge.
The home’s inside boasts an Italian kitchen, a spa and exercise area, a VIP suite, and a balcony with views of the Fort Lauderdale skyline.
Fortunately, teammate Sergio Busquets is also nearby. The midfielder, who moved to South Florida with Messi, recently reportedly paid almost $9 million for a beachfront house in Sea Ranch Lakes.
Podcaster and entrepreneur Patrick Bet-David recently disclosed that since Messi moved in next door, the value of his own property in the same area has increased by an astounding $25 million.
on an interview with VladTV earlier this month, he stated: “As of right now, given the current situation, I have already invested $25 million in my home.”
Messi recently moved in next door to my house. Everyone aspires to live in our neighborhood.
It’s a gated community on an island with just one entrance; it’s quite secure. With God’s grace, it still is.
“Everyone is fricking coming on their boats to look at the houses now that Messi is there.” We’re not too bad.
Messi, who is currently taking advantage of his offseason, purchased the property with the assistance of Team Simpkin, who has assisted MLS players in purchasing homes since the company’s creation in 2018.

It is also said that back in 2019, he purchased an apartment at the Porsche Design Tower in Miami.
The stadium of Inter Miami is 25 minutes away from the 60-story skyscraper, which is located between Bal Harbour and Aventura.
The building has multiple lifts that are reserved for the cars of its occupants, enabling them to park their cars in their private suite.
The apartment features an outdoor lounge with a view of the sea, as well as vehicle elevators.
Messi’s incredible house also has a movie theater, a racing simulator, and a golf simulator, providing his family with the ideal options for leisure.
