Developer Aldo Stark built a Bond-inspired 22,400-square-foot estate for himself in Stone Creek Ranch, only to then list it. He is trying to break a record he already holds.
Key Takeaways
- Villa Skyfall is listed for $85 million in Stone Creek Ranch, which would shatter the Delray Beach single-family record if it sells near that.
- The current record is $55 million, set by the same Aldo Stark, for his Ferrari-themed build, Casa Maranello, which sold at full ask.
- The James Bond theme includes a museum-grade car gallery, but unfortunately excludes the actual Aston Martin from the Skyfall 007 movie.
According to Robb Report, developer Aldo Stark has listed Villa Skyfall, his own James Bond-inspired residence at 16121 Quiet Vista Circle in Delray Beach's Stone Creek Ranch, for $85 million. If it sells anywhere near that number, it sets a single-family record for the Delray Beach area.
The record it would break belongs to Stark too. His Ferrari-themed Casa Maranello sold for its full $55 million ask just down the street in January 2025.
This one developer keeps raising Delray's luxury ceiling, and Villa Skyfall is his biggest swing yet.
What does $85 million buy at Villa Skyfall?
A car gallery built for a Bond collection
The home is a one-story, roughly 22,400-square-foot estate on 2.5 lakefront acres, finished in 2026, with nine bedroom suites, 12 bathrooms, and two powder rooms. The Bond theme runs all the way through. The centerpiece is a climate-controlled automotive gallery with a rotating display platform, built around Stark's personal collection, including the Aston Martin used in the filming of Skyfall, valued at more than $5 million. Fair warning: none of the cars come with the sale. The gallery is set up for the buyer's own collection.
From a hidden poker lounge to a rainforest spa
Beyond the cars, there is a hidden poker lounge behind a secret door, a 309-inch MicroLED theater, a grand salon wrapped in illuminated onyx, and 32-foot ceilings.
There's a wellness wing designed around an Amazon rainforest theme that has an indoor pool, a Himalayan salt room, a spa with a steam room and sauna, and a gym. Outside, a 95-foot T-shaped pool with a waterfall anchors the grounds, along with open-air cabanas, a putting green, a pickleball court, and a soccer field. Carrying costs match the scale: annual taxes run about $77,400, and HOA dues top $3,500 a month.

Who is Aldo Stark, and why does he keep breaking his own record?
The developer who built it for himself
Stark runs Prestige Design Homes, and Villa Skyfall is the sixth home he has built inside Stone Creek Ranch. Unlike most trophy listings, this one was not built to flip. He designed it as his own residence over several years, finished it, and has since moved into another Stone Creek home with his family.
The price laddeR: $37M, $55M, now $85M
Look at his track record in this one community, and you can see the ladder he has been climbing. In 2025, Mark Wahlberg bought one of Stark's homes for $37 million. Then Casa Maranello sold at its full $55 million ask, setting the current Delray Beach single-family record. Now Villa Skyfall asks $85 million, which works out to roughly $3,788 per square foot. Each sale resets the comps for the next one, with one developer setting and beating it over and over.
As Larry Mastropieri put it on the Discover South Florida Podcast: "This place is epic. And if it sells for anything close to this number, it's breaking a record."

What makes Stone Creek Ranch Delray's Billionaires' Row?
37 homesites, armed guards, and A-list neighbors
Stone Creek Ranch is a 187-acre, guard-gated enclave on Lyons Road in West Delray, west of Florida's Turnpike, with roughly 37 homesites. Villa Skyfall sits on one of the last available lots. Locals call it "Billionaires' Row," and the resident list backs that up: Rockstar Energy founder Russell Weiner, Mets owner and hedge fund manager Steve Cohen, and Wahlberg.
Larry has spent time inside the community, and his read is simple: "There's not much, if anything, like Stone Creek in West Delray. It's guard gated, super protected, and there's real players in there." Every home in the enclave has its own style, and themed car galleries are almost a house tradition. We took a longer look at how this inland community became a billionaire bunker if you want the full picture.
Trophy prices, 20 minutes from the beach
One detail worth sitting with: this $85 million residence is a 20- to 30-minute drive from the beach. In South Florida, money at this level almost always buys oceanfront or Intracoastal. Stone Creek is the rare inland address commanding trophy prices, which tells you the product and the privacy, not the water, are doing the selling here.
Will Villa Skyfall actually get $85 million?
This asking price is huge even for the neighborhood, let alone for Delray Beach, let alone for South Florida outside the island markets. Palm Beach has crossed this territory before (an estate there went under contract for $96 million), but a suburban Delray sale at $85 million would be new ground.
What works in its favor: the buyer pool for homes like this keeps growing as wealth relocates from high-tax states into a very thin supply of elite estates. Buyers at this level are unlikely to be paying $85 million unless they are worth a billion or more, and Stone Creek is where that crowd has been landing.
Whether the final number starts with an 8 or something lower, the listing itself moves the market: every seller in West Delray now has a new ceiling to point at. You can see what the rest of the market looks like among homes for sale in Delray Beach.
