Elin Nordegren, the ex-wife of golf legend Tiger Woods, has sold her custom beachfront mansion in the Seminole Landing community for a recorded $28.641 million, according to the deed recorded Friday by Palm Beach County Clerk.

Billionaire Rockstar Energy Drink creator Russell Weiner of Delray Beach bought the property as trustee of a revocable trust in his name, the deed shows. 

The 26,000-square-foot house faces 200 feet of shoreline in an unincorporated area near North Palm Beach.

The estate was listed in March 2018 at $49.5 million, later dropped to $44.5 million. Agents Cris Condon, Todd Peter and Frances Peter of Sotheby’s International Realty in Palm Beach had the listing.

Todd Peter also handled the buyer's side of the sale, he confirmed, but he declined further comment. Condon also declined comment, and Nordegren and Weiner couldn't be reached.

Nordegren built the 11-bedroom, British West Indies-style house at 12520 Seminole Beach Road after buying the property for a recorded $12.25 million in 2012 and razing a house there. Her custom home, completed in 2014, stands on a 1.4-acre  lot.

Among the estate’s features are an elevator and a reflection pond. The main house features walls of retractable glass, a pair of kitchens, a home theater and a deck on the roof. The swimming pool has a water slide, according to published reports.

The sales listing described the house as suited to an indoor-outdoor lifestyle: “The style of British West Indies — with its breezy outdoor spaces and light-filled, view-focused interiors — offered inspiration and was adapted for relaxed, refined modern living.”

Nordegren sold the estate as trustee of the Northern Lights Trust.

Woods and Nordegren married in 2004. Their contentious divorce was finalized in 2010, with Nordegren receiving a settlement reported at $100 million.

Weiner bought the estate using the same trust that owns his Delray Beach oceanfront house at 801 S. Ocean Blvd., property records show. Like Nordegren, he had his house homesteaded in the latest county tax rolls.

Last spring, Weiner struck a $3.85 billion deal and sold Rockstar to PepsiCo, according to published reports.

Weiner has an estimated net worth of $3.7 billion, according to Forbes.com. He was ranked No. 213 on the latest Forbes 400 list of the country's richest people.
