David and Victoria Beckham Just Bought a Secret New Property and We’ve Found out Why

Power couple David and Victoria Beckham are probably among the most famous of Britain’s celebrity exports. But it looks like the former athlete and the fashion designer are going to be spending more time in the United States than before. In fact, they’ve even bought a condo at the famed One Thousand Museum condominium tower in Miami, Florida.

The sale was confirmed by the listings site Mansion Global. The site also found that the acquisition of the full-floor penthouse was agreed up a couple of months back and was only formally closed recently. It remains unconfirmed what the couple paid for the unit. However, the penthouse reportedly had an asking price of $20 million. Another undisclosed detail about the property is its exact location in the buildings’ 62 stories.

Located atop the 707 feet tower, the Beckhams’ new digs span some 10,335 square feet, certainly enough room for David and Victoria’s four children, should they be staying with their parents. The unit has five bedrooms as well as six and a half bathrooms. Among the other amenities, the family can enjoy while living at One Thousand Museum are a private rooftop helipad and an on-site wellness center and spa.

One Thousand Museum is notably a project of the late award-winning architect Zaha Hadid. The building’s construction reportedly began in 2013. Hadid, unfortunately, passed away just three years later. The residential high-rise was finally completed in 2019 with Chris Lepine at the helm.

Today, the skyscraper is considered to be among the most recognizable towers in the Downtown Miami area due to its ‘revolutionary’ architecture, according to ONE Sotheby’s International Realty president Daniel de la Vega.

As the soccer superstar’s spokesperson revealed, David and his team will be spending more time in the city as they gear for the launch of Inter Miami CF. They also described One Thousand Museum as a ‘special building’ and they are excited to be there. The 44-year-old former athlete currently serves as the president of the Miami-based soccer club. The team made its debut in the 2020 season of Major League Soccer last March.

David retired from the sport that turned him into an international celebrity in 2013. His career spanned over two decades playing for a variety of clubs from Manchester United to the English national team.
