  • A mansion once owned by Bill Gates on Jupiter Island is for sale.
  • Gates' investment entity bought it in 2009 for $5 million and sold it in 2018 for $4 million.
  • Now the house is on the market for $23.5 million, an increase of $19.5 million.

A 9,458-square-foot mansion once owned by Bill Gates just hit the market, and if you have $23.5 million to spare, it could be yours.

The waterfront property is on Florida's exclusive Jupiter Island, which is home to other celebrities like Tiger Woods, and near the town of Jupiter, where public figures like Eric Trump live.

In 2009, Gates' investment entity Front Range Investment Holdings purchased the property for $5 million, per public records, adding it to Gates' large real-estate portfolio. As of 2024, he owned 275,000 acres of land across the US in states such as Washington, Colorado, California, and Florida.

Front Range sold the Jupiter Island property in 2018 for $4 million to John Textor, the former CEO of FuboTV and co-owner of multiple professional soccer teams such as Crystal Palace FC and Lyon.

Now, just seven years later, the price has skyrocketed from $4 million to $23.5 million, partly due to the upgrades made by Textor and the jump in South Florida real-estate prices in recent years. It's now listed by Susan Hemmes with ONE Sotheby's International Realty.

Take a closer look at the home, which includes state-of-the-art amenities and incredible views.

The home is located on Jupiter Island, a barrier island off the coast of Florida.
