Built in 2014, the spacious home includes 5,406 square feet of interiors on a 0.41-acre lot, plus roughly 90 feet of waterfront
Combined, the contracts represented $101.2 million in listed residential value, down from the $169.7 million recorded across 17 deals during the previous week.
Homes in the latest group had spent an average of 192 days on the market, indicating that even luxury buyers with substantial budgets are proceeding cautiously.
Whiteside bought the residence for $7.3 million in 2016. At its current price, the property is listed for more than twice that amount.
Joel Lusky of The Brokerage South Florida Real Estate, LLC, and Jordan Karp of Jordan Karp, LLC, are representing the listing.
Lakeview provides a relatively private corner of Miami Beach, offering a more relaxed residential atmosphere than the city’s most heavily visited areas.
Water views, convenient boating access and proximity to Miami Beach restaurants, retail and shoreline attractions give the neighborhood both seclusion and connectivity.
That combination may have suited Whiteside during his time with the Miami Heat. The 37-year-old, seven-foot center played five seasons for the team from 2014 to 2019 and became a commanding force near the basket.
He went on to suit up for the Portland Trail Blazers and Sacramento Kings before concluding his NBA career with the Utah Jazz in 2022.
The interior combines generous living spaces with hardwood and marble finishes, custom cabinetry and a Wolf- and Miele-equipped chef’s kitchen
Miami Beach’s Lakeview neighborhood offers a quieter version of South Florida living, removed from the bustle of the city’s busiest tourist zones

After leaving the NBA, Whiteside returned to professional basketball during the 2025–26 season, joining the Shanghai Sharks of the Chinese Basketball Association.
He built his NBA reputation on elite rebounding and shot-blocking, and was selected to the league’s All-Defensive Second Team in 2016.
Now his former Miami Beach home is looking to deliver a winning result of its own in the luxury property market.
For the buyer able to meet the $14.8 million asking price, the estate offers a private waterfront compound with a pool, movie theater, rooftop entertaining area and dedicated space for boats and watercraft.
Whether this latest contract finally leads to a completed sale remains uncertain, since the property is pending rather than officially sold.
