The real estate taste of Mark Wahlberg has far exceeded his acting, producing and former rap career. His creativity and artistic skill have now been used to flip a once $22 million home to an impressive $37 million mega mansion. His journey from California to South Florida has impressed the masses — especially in how he turned a neutrally designed home to a reimagined luxury estate.
Property Details
The property is located at 9200 Rockybrook Way inside the gated enclave of Stone Creek Ranch in Delray Beach, Florida. The luxury estate expands to around 18,000 square feet which is around 2.5 to 2.7 acres. Known as Palazzo Di Lago, an Italian phrase to signify a Palace of the Lake, it marks the Sunshine State’s expanding luxury among celebrity real estate connoisseurs.
It also highlights Stone Creek Ranch’s status as one of the most admired communities worldwide among high-net-worth individuals. It has become a magnet approaching for top listings and is becoming a billionaire row. Among 37 luxury estate owners, include —Steve Cohen (Hedge Fund Billionaire and Owner of the New York Mets), Ivan Wilzing (Recording Artist and heir to the Bank Fortune), and Marc Roberts and other global CEOs.
Inside the Mansion
The grand iron and glass entry doors with high ceilings is the first thing that catches the eye . The floor to ceiling windows allow natural light to come in and illuminate the polishing of marbles connecting to double staircases with intricate iron design. Golden lights add luxury and warmth.
For relaxing, there is a serene spa suite with a sauna, massage room, and steam shower lined in Himalayan salt tile. As for entertainment, the home includes a -state-of-the-art-theater and a lagoon style pool with palm trees, along with a gym, tennis court, guest house, wine cellar signifying pure luxury.
Previous Sales
The fully furnished mansion, Sundara, was sold for the first time at $17 million in the year 2020. Three years later it hit the market with the price tag of $26 million. It was later relisted in 2024 for $33 million.
Aldo Stark, the fourth owner, reconstructed the estate and listed it for $45 million. Finally, it was purchased by Mark Wahlberg.
Interestingly, from the first purchase to the last sale, Douglas Elliman real estate broker Senada Adzem represented the mega mansion all five times.
There was a significant 118% increase in the value of this house since it was first listed in 2020. It rose 53% in just 3 years. The incredible rise in the value of the house is affected by many factors, and uniquely saw all transactions handled by the same broker.
Factors affecting listing price
According to Adzem, “People’s circumstances change and they have different chapters in their life. So we were privileged to be able to guide this home through different evolutions and different owners and be able to add value to it.”
One of the reasons for the increase in the price was COVID. The NCH Stats data shows that homes in the U.S. have increased 44-55% in value in the last 5 years. The demand is high due to the exclusive VIP neighborhood and high net worth individuals,hence the prices would naturally increase.
Florida’s tax-free advantage, combined with its coastal beauty, continues to shape the state’s booming luxury market. Stark’s renovation—rare marbles, refined design, and an open, light-filled floor plan—became a major factor in elevating the home’s value and ultimately attracting Mark Wahlberg.
This price rise reflects more than a successful sale; it represents Florida’s transformation into a modern luxury hub. With mega estates, wellness amenities, and world-class privacy, the Sunshine State is drawing a new wave of elite residents. Wahlberg’s move underscores a simple truth: the future of American luxury living is being built in Florida.
