The new eco-mansion belonging to recently-retired NFL GOAT Tom Brady and his model wife Gisele Bundchen is starting to take shape in its waterfront slot on Miami’s exclusive ‘Billionaire’s Bunker’.
The celebrity couple purchased the plot of land for $17 million in late 2020. Since then, they've torn down a pre-existing 5,772-square-foot home on their lot and are building a state-of-the-art eco-friendly mansion in its place.
Indian Creek Island is referred to as 'the world's most exclusive municipality', and with just 34 properties available across 300 acres – all of which have waterfront views of Biscayne Bay, near Miami, Florida – it's also one of the most expensive.
Aptly referred to as 'Billionaire Bunker', the island is home to the likes of hotel magnate Jeffrey Soffer, activist Carl Icahn and Hotels.com Founder Robert Diener.
It has also become a hotbed for celebrities, like Tom Brady and his wife, Gisele Bündchen, and political figures, including Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.

Tom and Gisele plan to build the home in an environmentally-sustainable fashion and will play a hands-on role in helping design it, according to reports.
