A legendary piece of Hollywood history is making headlines after the iconic mansion featured in the classic 1983 crime film Scarface was officially listed for an eye-popping $237 million. If sold anywhere near its asking price, the estate could become one of the most expensive residential property sales in the world.
Located in the elite waterfront community of Key Biscayne near Miami, the 13,000-square-foot estate became famous for its appearance as the home of powerful drug lord Frank Lopez in the культ classic film starring Al Pacino, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Robert Loggia.
The mansion features luxury amenities that most people only dream about — including a stunning glass elevator, massive waterfront views, resort-style outdoor living spaces, and a unique piano-shaped swimming pool that has already gone viral online. The sprawling 2.38-acre property blends modern luxury with historic prestige, making it one of the most recognizable celebrity homes in America.
Current owner John Devaney, CEO of United Capital Markets, has frequently showcased the property across social media, giving fans and luxury real estate enthusiasts a glimpse inside the lavish compound.
But this estate is more than just a Hollywood landmark. The mansion also played a role in American political history. During the presidency of Richard Nixon, the property reportedly served as a “Winter White House” between 1969 and 1974. Historical reports state that millions were spent constructing a helicopter pad at the estate — a feature that has since been converted into a private marina.
Ironically, many fans still confuse this property with Tony Montana’s infamous mansion used during the explosive final shootout scene in the movie. That home was actually located in California and was reportedly listed years ago for approximately $40 million — far below the current asking price of this Miami-area estate.
The property is being represented by the prestigious Jills Zeder Group at Coldwell Banker Realty, and the listing has already sparked major conversation across social media and luxury real estate circles worldwide.
From Hollywood royalty to presidential history, this mansion stands as more than just a home — it’s a cultural icon wrapped in luxury.
