Will he build another St. Jetersburg? The Baseball Hall of Famer Derek Jeter has reportedly made a massive land grab. The Yankees legend seems to have purchased a 2-acre waterfront lot in Coral Gables, FL, for $16.6 million, according to the South Florida Business Journal. The property first landed on the market in September 2020 for $17,999,500, according to realtor.com®.

For his latest purchase, he bought a parcel that features 325 linear feet on a wide waterway. The picturesque location offers unparalleled views from the largest waterfront lot available in the guard-gated Gables Estates.

The prestigious property comes with some improvements, such as a recently completed seawall, plus docks that can handle two megayachts or other seaworthy vessels.

Plans by the architect Cesar Molina are also available, for a new, 20,000-square-foot custom home. Permits for the potential new build are working their way through the approval process, a time-saving strategy for a buyer who appreciates the look of the proposed design.
