The sale, which closed in late September, is the most expensive transaction on Miami's Venetian Islands — a chain of artificial islands in Biscayne Bay — so far in 2020, per Mansion Global.

The compound was listed for $19.9 million.

The Venetian Islands — which straddle the cities of Miami and Miami Beach — is made up of six exclusive manmade islands: Biscayne Island, San Marco Island, San Marino Island, Di Lido Island, Rivo Alto Island, and Belle Isle.
