The most expensive condo in the Miami area, referred to as "Sky Mansion," is located a few skips away from the $60 steaks of Prime 112.

Alex Birkenstock's triplex penthouse at Continuum towers in South Beach was sold on Friday for $25 million in a deal that broke records, according to a Platinum Properties release.

Previously, the record-holder was Netscape founder James H. Clark's 6,209-square-foot duplex penthouse at the Setai Resort and Residence, which sold for $21.5 million last December, reports the New York Times.

Birkenstock, a member of the German family that control the sandal company, bought the immense condo in 2009 for $9.9 million from Howard and Lily Steinberg, who purchased it in 2003 for $7 million.

Before Birkenstock bought it, the penthouse was listed at $25 million before dropping to $21 and then $14.5 million as the housing market tanked in 2007 and 2008.

"The ā€˜Sky Mansion’ is the ultimate Miami condominium with endless panoramic views and incomparable luxuries," Platinum Properties CEO Khashy Eyn, who represented Birkenstock in the sale said in a release. "It’s a one-of-a-kind, spectacular home – arguably one of the most magnificent residences in the country.ā€

What makes it so spectacular?

"Sky Mansion" sits on the top three floors of the exclusive Continuum and has its own private elevator.

The penthouse contains 5 bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms, 7,400 square feet inside, and an additional 6,000 square in outside terrace space with to-die-for views of the ocean.

Floor-to-ceiling windows give 360-degree views of the Atlantic and Biscayne Bay and the property has 26-foot-high ceilings in the dining room.

Continuum sits on 13 acres of prized South Beach property adjacent to South Pointe Park and its amenities include a fully attended concierge, doorman, and valet services as well as 3 tennis courts, a 25,000-square-foot health and fitness center, 2 large recreational pools, 4 hot tubs and 2 saunas.
