Superstar Drake’s onetime "condo up on Biscayne," famously referenced in his song "The Motto," just sold yesterday for $2.3 million in a deal represented on both sides by Douglas Elliman. Drake sold the unit, which is located in the luxurious Marquis Residences, to NBA superstar and Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mario Chalmers for $2.5 million in 2012 when Chalmers was on the Miami Heat. The unit was also featured in the Canadian rapper's hit song "I'm on One" music video. The 2-story, 5,475 SF residence is spread over 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms offering triple exposure complete with floor-to-ceiling glass windows and sliders. Exceptional interior features include marble and wood floors throughout, private foyer, soaring 20' ceilings, den/game room, full service wet bar, an open kitchen equipped with appliances by Viking and Sub-Zero, along with a large terrace ideal for indoor/outdoor entertaining offering unmatched unobstructed views of the Miami Skyline and the American Airlines arena. The buyer was local and represented by John Sandberg with the Sandberg Nortmann Group at Douglas Elliman. 1100 Biscayne Blvd. #4905/06 was listed for $2.66 million with Douglas Elliman.
