Jeffrey Epstein’s infamous islands are up for grabs at $125 million
LA TimesJeffrey Epstein’s Caribbean compound — dubbed “Pedophile Island” after prosecutors alleged that the disgraced financier brought underage girls there to be sexually assaulted by Epstein and his associates — is on the market for $125 million, The Times has confirmed. Epstein, a convicted sex offender who died by apparent suicide in a New York jail in 2019, bought Little St. James for $7.95 million in 1998 and spent the following years turning the 70-acre spread into a palm-topped paradise complete with a sprawling stone mansion topped with a turquoise roof, four guest villas, two pools, a gym, tiki hut, dock and helicopter pad. Covering 70 acres, Little St. James island holds a mansion, four guest villas and a mysterious temple-like structure. Found near the southeast coast of St. Thomas, Great St. James island spans 160 acres. The islands are a small piece of Epstein’s country-spanning collection of real estate, which also includes a New Mexico ranch, Florida compound and 40-room New York mansion that sold for $51 million last year.
