Formula 1 sensation Charles Leclerc is buying a waterfront home in Miami

Formula 1 race car champ Charles Leclerc will be living the high life in Miami.

The 26-year-old phenom is buying a waterfront home at the Edition Residences in Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood, a personal milestone that Leclerc announced on Instagram to his 15 million followers.

“Miami, feeling at home already … Can’t wait,” he posted in a photo slideshow that received 1.37 million likes.

However, the price he’s paying for the residence is undisclosed. Homes at the 55-story glass tower start at $2 million.

Leclerc, for his part, is buying one of the tower’s “signature” sky residences — which begin at $3.1 million. They range from 2,315 square feet to 2,709 square feet. The smaller signature units have two bedrooms, 2½ baths and a den. The others boast three bedrooms and 3½ baths.

The tower, at 2121 North Bayshore Dr., will be 649 feet high and will come with 800 feet of Biscayne Bay frontage. Designed by architect Bernardo Fort-Brescia with interiors by Alessandro Munge, it’s slated to be move-in ready by 2027.

Leclerc may enjoy the fact the development features a “state-of-the-art racing simulator” as part of its sprawling 45,000-square-foot indoor/outdoor amenity space.

Miami has plenty of Formula 1 fans. The Magic City just wrapped up its third F1 Miami Grand Prix on a $40 million custom track funded by real estate mogul and Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross in 2022. Leclerc came in third on Sunday after Lando Norris in first place and Max Verstappen in second.

“A little bit of blue and 2 trophies to take back home. Miami, thank you,” Leclerc also posted on Instagram, under a photo of himself holding one of the trophies up high.

This Edition property is the global hotel brand’s first independent collection of luxury condo residences.

Amenities for the 185 units include an indoor/outdoor poolside garden lounge with a wet bar, a cabana-lined pool, a cinema and golf simulators. There’s also a gym with private training studios and areas for yoga and spinning. Residents will additionally get onsite fine dining as well as a library lounge and six guest suites.
