Jeff Bezos' $500M real estate portfolio: See all his luxury houses - New York Post

keloporan.blogspot.com

It’s the end of an era for Jeff Bezos, who announced that his time as the CEO of Amazon would soon come to a close.

Starting out in 1994 as an online bookstore, Amazon morphed into a multi-trillion-dollar company with Bezos, 57, as the ring leader of it all. Since, he has amassed a gigantic real estate portfolio worth upwards of $500 million, accounting for inflation. Ranging from properties in Beverly Hills to Seattle to good ole’ West Texas, and even cities like Washington, D.C., and New York City, Bezos has a home for each climate.

Up until his divorce from Mackenzie Scott in 2019, he was worth about $150 billion — making him the richest person in the world. Following his divorce, Bezos still remained on Forbes’ 2020 list as the world’s wealthiest person for the third year in a row, despite giving $36 billion worth of his Amazon stock to his ex-wife. Today, Bezos is estimated to have a net worth of about $195 billion — sparked by the rise of Amazon’s portfolio amid the pandemic.

While it remains unclear at this point how the two have decided to divvy up their real estate assets, the homes he’s purchased are spread across the nation.

Bezos has four apartments worth $17.5 million in the Century Condominium at 25 Central Park West, which neighbors Central Park and has been home to composer George Gershwin and “Friends” star Matthew Perry.

Bezos bought three apartments in the building in 1999 for $7.65 million (about $12.13 million today), and he added a fourth to his collection for $5.3 million in 2012. 

The 33-story dual-tower building was built in 1932 by Irwin Chanin, who was known for Broadway theater designs. The Art Deco exterior and lobby hold over 400 unique condominiums, according to StreetEasy.

Madison Square Park

At the height of the pandemic in April 2020, the online shopping magnate closed on a $16 million, three-bedroom condominium on the 20th floor of 212 Fifth Ave.

It’s the fifth time he bought an entire floor in the 24-story building — he already dropped $80 million in June 2019 on the 21st, 22nd, 23rd and 24th floors of the building. 

His 2019 apartment-spree included the purchase of a three-story, five-bedroom, five-and-a-half bathroom penthouse and the two-unit floor beneath it, which he planned to combine into a single mega-condo totaling 17,000 square feet, according to Realtor.com

The Amazon honcho paid $23 million in 2016 for the former Textile Museum in Washington’s upscale Kalorama neighborhood — then he got to work on a $12 million renovation, according to a Washingtonian report.

Bezos purchased the estate three years after becoming the sole owner of The Washington Post.

The neighborhood once housed Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump as well as Barack and Michelle Obama.

The brick exterior has stately Roman columns and balconies, a sweeping lawn with a fountain and a private garden with brick-arched walkways.

Spanning 27,000 square feet, it was originally built in 1914. It holds ten bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, six powder rooms and 11 fireplaces.

This 30,000-acre property in the west-most part of Texas is the base for Bezos’ private space company, Blue Origin.

But the property also has a four-bedroom gray stucco home. Bezos purchased the house from attorney Ronald Stasny for an unknown amount in 2004. Originally built in the 1920s, it underwent millions in renovations under Stasny, who said that Bezos intended to keep the house mostly as-is when he purchased it. It has deer-antler chandeliers, oak furniture, historical photos and paintings of the ranch, a barn and a guest house, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal

It is estimated Bezos paid over $50 million for the $30,000 acre ranch.

Bezos, who attended elementary school in Houston, said that he wants his family to have the chance to live on a ranch after he got to stay on his grandfather’s 25,000-acre ranch in Cotulla, Texas, as a kid, according to the report. 

Ranches in the area go for about $1,400 an acre, Realtor.com shows, and Stasny told the WSJ that Bezos paid a premium.

One of Bezos’ first homes he purchased following new-found success at the company was in Medina, Seattle. He paid $10 million in 1998 for a 20,600-square-foot, five-bedroom, four-bathroom house, according to Realtor.com. The 5.3-acre property in the ritzy Seattle suburb is located near the local Post Office and grocery store, property records show.

Then, in 2005, he reportedly spent $50 million on a neighboring 8,300-square-foot mansion with five bedrooms and four bathrooms. The properties have a combined 310 feet of shoreline, according to Realtor.com. 

Finally, Bezos plunked down $28 million in renovations on the combined estate in 2010, according to Realtor.com, for a total of $88 million spent on the estate — $118 million, adjusting for inflation. 

Medina Peninsula is accessible from Seattle via the longest floating bridge in the world, spanning 7,710 feet across Lake Washington. The 1.4-square-mile city has a golf and country club founded in 1927, where residents like to not only golf but also swim and play tennis, according to Mansion Global
