The Golden Beach home of a prominent South Florida philanthropist who died last year is listed for $42.5 million.
The beachfront estate at 387 Ocean Boulevard hit the market in May with Coldwell Banker’s The Jills team. The 10-bedroom, 10-bathroom home was built in 1941 and sits on a 62,750-square-foot lot.

The all-white, Mediterranean-style estate includes a gym, movie theater, cabana, oval-shaped pool, as well as a separate two-story guest house with its own kitchen, pool and beach. According to Realtor.com, it has not been listed since its last sale.
Listing agent Jill Hertzberg declined to comment on the property.
