The property, which hit the market last year at $21 million, went to contract in December. It includes a three-level, 5,500-square-foot main house is hurricane-proof despite being made from steel-framed glass, according to Mansion Global. It includes a gourmet kitchen, roof deck and wraparound terraces. A separate 2,400-square-foot glass guest house has two bedrooms, one bathroom and an eat-in kitchen.
