One of the Florida’s flashiest new properties is Villa Skyfall in Delray Beach, and it just listed for an astounding $85 million. Celebrity developer Aldo Stark of Prestige Design Homes, known for creating extravagant residences of this caliber, spearheaded the 2.5-acre project set behind gates in exclusive Stone Creek Ranch, otherwise known as South Florida’s Billionaires’ Row.
Appearing simultaneously museum-like and futuristic at first glance, the 22,436-square-foot mansion looks like it was beamed from space. Driving up, it’s almost hard to believe its actually meant to be lived in. The custom residence is filled to the brim with swanky amenities and bold, luxury materials. Along with nine bedrooms and soaring 32-foot ceilings, wow factors include the grand salon wrapped in illuminated onyx, the private-members-club-inspired poker lounge hidden behind a secret door, and the primary suite’s two-level boutique closet.
Not designed for the average buyer—or the way the average person lives—it’s especially suited for someone who takes their wellness quite seriously, complete with an Amazon rainforest-inspired spa featuring an indoor pool, Himalayan salt room, steam room, sauna, and fitness center.
Another show-stopping moment awaits in the vast automotive gallery that was intentionally designed to showcase Stark’s personal collection of exotic and collectible vehicles. While his collection is not included in the sale, it serves as inspiration for what the space could become. Right now, the actual Aston Martin featured in the iconic James Bond film, ‘Skyfall,’ is taking center stage near the dining room. With Stark’s enthusiasm for cars, this clearly informed the mansion’s name as well.
What makes Villa Skyfall stand out isn’t just its outstanding size, but the theatrical and maximalist design behind each and every space. Senada Adžem of Douglas Elliman holds the listing.
