Jeff Bezos has purchased a third mansion on Florida’s “billionaire bunker” island for \u00a370 million.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jeff Bezos has acquired a third property on the ‘billionaire’s bunker’ island in Florida<\/p>\n

The Amazon tycoon has added the six-bedroom property located on Indian Creek island near Miami to his portfolio of homes in the exclusive location.<\/p>\n

It is thought that Bezos, 60, will live in the house as he demolishes his other two properties in the area.<\/p>\n

Records show that the mansion was last sold in 1998 for just \u00a32 million and used to be owned by the former banker Javier Holtz.<\/p>\n

The mansion contains nine bathrooms, a massive front lawn, a pool and numerous balconies and entrances. It is also painted yellow and has a Spanish-style roof.<\/p>\n

\nBezos is said to have paid around \u00a3116 million for his other homes on the island – which also contains residences owned by NFL great Tom Brady as well as Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner.<\/p>\n

\nMiami historian Paul George says that the billionaire’s latest acquisition is testament to how popular the area is.<\/p>\n

\nHe told The Times newspaper: “There\u2019s a certain amount of hyperbole around the \u2018billionaire bunker\u2019 name \u2014 but come back in ten years and it won\u2019t be hyperbole.<\/p>\n

\n“There\u2019s a momentum here in Miami, where the rich and famous and beautiful are buying property, whether it\u2019s a primary or secondary home, because it\u2019s alluring for the water and the weather and the buzz. Miami\u2019s become one of the biggest hotspots in the hemisphere.”<\/p>\n

\nBezos – who was ranked as the third richest person in the world in Forbes’ latest list earlier this week – is unlikely to be disturbed in the mansion as the island has its own 13-strong police force, although he will be accompanied by wildlife including rat snakes, land crabs and pelicans.<\/p>\n

\nGeorge said: “Security is tight. These folks don\u2019t want to be bothered and they\u2019re willing to spend money making sure of it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
