David and Victoria Beckham have cashed in on Miami’s luxury boom, quietly selling their full-floor penthouse at One Thousand Museum for nearly $25 million.
The couple walked walked away with an estimated $4.8 million profit in an off-market deal that underscores the staying power of the city’s ultra-luxury condo market.
The Beckhams sold the home amid reported tension between them and their son Brooklyn. It has been speculated that much of the drama is tied to his Brooklyn’s marriage to Nicola Peltz. Reports claim the couple has grown distant from the Beckham family, missing key gatherings and spending more time with the Peltz side, fueling talk of a rift that dates back to their 2022 wedding.
In January, Brooklyn publicly addressed speculation about his relationship with his parents, saying he does not want to “reconcile” with his family. In Instagram posts, he accused David and Victoria of “attacking” him and Nicola, in the press and attempting “endlessly to ruin” his marriage. He said he had tried to remain private but had “no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth.”
It’s not clear if London-based David and Victoria, getting rid of one of their U.S. properties has anything to do with the feud with their son and his wife.
Inside the Mansion
Property records cited by the South Florida Business Journal show the seller as Beckham Brand Limited, the London-based company managed by David Beckham. The transaction closed at roughly $2,677 per square foot. The couple purchased the residence brand-new in 2020 for about $19.8 million.
The 9,200-square-foot unit occupies the 59th floor of the 62-story tower at 1000 Biscayne Blvd. The penthouse includes five bedrooms and six-and-a-half bathrooms, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls overlooking Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline.
The building was designed by the late Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid. Known for its sculptural silhouette, the tower is wrapped in a dramatic concrete exoskeleton that distinguishes it from neighboring high-rises. With just 84 residences, the property has positioned itself as one of the city’s most architecturally distinctive condominium addresses.
The Beckhams’ sale comes amid mixed signals in the broader South Florida condo market. According to Analytics Miami, sales of units priced above $1 million fell 5 percent year over year in the fourth quarter. However, ultra-prime properties priced north of $20 million continue to change hands, often without being formally listed on the open market, as was the case with the Beckhams’ penthouse.
The building has drawn a roster of high-profile owners over the years. Hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin owns two units on the 58th floor. Market America CEO Loren Ridinger has listed her residence in the tower for $24 million, above the $18.5 million she paid in 2021. Not every celebrity seller has secured a profit. Grammy-winning singer Marc Anthony sold his unit last year for $8.6 million, after purchasing it for $11 million in 2022.
For the Beckhams, the decision to sell does not signal a retreat from Miami. David Beckham’s ownership stake in Inter Miami CF has deepened the family’s ties to the city. In 2024, the couple expanded their South Florida footprint, paying $80 million for a waterfront mansion on Miami Beach’s North Bay Road, one of the area’s most exclusive residential stretches.
Beyond Florida, the couple maintains an international portfolio of high-end homes. In London, they own a Victorian townhouse in Holland Park, a neighborhood known for its stately architecture and proximity to central London. They also hold a countryside estate in the Cotswolds, a region favored by celebrities seeking privacy and pastoral surroundings. In the Middle East, they have long kept a residence at the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the world’s tallest building.
The Miami penthouse, while comparatively short-lived in their portfolio, reflects the Beckhams’ pattern of investing in marquee properties in globally recognized destinations. Their gain of nearly $5 million over roughly four years highlights continued demand at the top of Miami’s condominium market, particularly for architecturally significant buildings with limited inventory.
Though segments of the broader luxury market have cooled, trophy properties such as those at One Thousand Museum remain attractive to buyers seeking privacy, design pedigree and unobstructed views. In that sense, the Beckhams’ transaction fits squarely within a niche that continues to perform, even as other parts of the market adjust.
With the sale finalized, the couple appears to be consolidating their Miami holdings rather than exiting the market. Their continued investment in South Florida, anchored by David Beckham’s role with Inter Miami, suggests that while one address has changed hands, their connection to the city remains firmly in place.
