Forbes reported that Hilda Maria Bacardi, the great, great-granddaughter of Bacardi founder Facundo Bacardí Massó, sold her 12-bedroom Coral Gables mansion for $19 million. She spent eight years overseeing the house’s construction and first put it up for sale before it was even finished, asking $18 million in 2014. That number bounced upward to $27 million in 2016.
The home, in the Cocoplum area of Coral Gables, sits on 1.3 acres at 300 Costanera Road and includes a wine cellar, a 100-foot dock along 400 feet of water frontage, a swimming pool and living quarters for staff.
Hilda Jacobson and Barbara Estela of Douglas Elliman had the listing.
Bacardi’s main United States office is located in Coral Gables and Hilda’s brother and company chairman, Facundo, also owns a home in the city. [Forbes] — Will Parker
