Exclusive "Billionaires Row" Location
Stone Creek Ranch is a highly exclusive, gated community west of Delray Beach, renowned for its privacy and security. The community features large lots, with only 37 properties spread across 187 acres, making it an attractive enclave for high-profile individuals. Notable residents and visitors to the area include hedge fund manager Steve Cohen and artists Alicia Keys and The Weeknd.
The property was originally listed for $45 million and was redesigned by Aldo Stark. The sale price of $37 million, while higher than the recorded deed price of $32.64 million, reflects the inclusion of furnishings and artwork.
Wahlberg’s Florida Ties
This purchase marks a significant addition to Wahlberg’s presence in Florida. The actor and entrepreneur has demonstrated ties to Palm Beach County through charity work, including fundraising events, and his investment in F45 Training, which has locations near his new home.

Wahlberg, who relocated his family from California to Las Vegas in 2022, has previously sold a Beverly Hills home to Paris Hilton for $63.1 million. His move to Florida signifies a continued pattern of high-value real estate transactions.
