The former Florida home of longtime famed actor Rosie O’Donnell is now in new hands after being sold for a hefty sum.

The waterfront mansion, built in 1923, is located at 43 Star Island Drive in Miami Beach. O’Donnell bought the property back in 1999 for 6.75 million before offloading it just four years later, according to Realtor.com.

It was purchased in 2003 by real estate investor David Frankel and his wife Linda Frankel. The Wall Street Journal reports the Frankels “substantially renovated” the house while living there.

Now, the house has sold once again to the billionaire founder of Rockstar Energy Drink, Russell Weiner.

The home offers 11,000 square feet, including eight bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. It also comes with a gourmet kitchen, bar, office, workshop and plenty of entertaining space. Outside, there’s a rooftop terrace, boathouse, 200 feet of waterfront and not one but two separate guesthouses.

Star Island has long been known for housing celebrities and high-profile individuals. Residents of the island have included Shaquille O’Neal, Emilio and Gloria Estefan, Enrique Iglesias, Rick Ross, Don Johnson and, famously, Sean “Diddy” Combs.
