Josh Ostrovsky, also known as The Fat Jew, is asking $4.25 million for his Miami home

Josh Ostrovsky, the entrepreneur and comedian long known as @thefatjewish on Instagram — where he has 9.5 million followers — is listing his midcentury Miami Shores home for $4.25 million. And he’s making quite a profit in the process.

Best known for his gravity-defying hairband, Ostrovsky is married to Caitlin King with whom he has a son, Buddy. In 2015, Ostrovsky also famously co-founded White Girl Rosé. Four years later, Ostrovsky and his partners sold the company – Swish Beverages – to Anheuser-Busch. Brand (Ostrovsky has called rosé “wine’s distant cousin”) associated with millennials — especially the canned, fizzy versions.

In 2020, like many, Ostrovsky left New York for Florida during the pandemic, first moving to Hibiscus Island. By 2021, Ostrovsky paid $2.5 million for this Miami Shores home — from a seller who bought it for $625,000 in 2014.

“Now it is worth twice what he paid. He is interested in renting and monetizing,” said co-listing broker George Burns of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty.

“[Ostrovsky] also no longer wants to own a home. It’s a lot of work, with scenery and all, and he’s from New York and he’s not used to it. Maybe he will find another deal. But he’s a very transient person and he could land anywhere after that.”

Ostrovsky, who is now traveling in Europe, could not be reached for comment.

The residence, at 500 NE 96th St., was built in 1950. It features five bedrooms and 4 ½ baths.

The architect, Joseph J. DeBrita, designed the Georgian Hotel of Miami Beach, which was demolished in 1974.

The corner lot, two-story home, which sits on half an acre, is known as the Panorama House.

It features a first-floor master bedroom suite with a spa-like bathroom, a chef’s kitchen with terrazzo floors, a family room and additional flexible space for a home office or gym. There is also a separate guest suite.

Outdoor space includes a hexagon-shaped loggia with an outdoor kitchen and barbecue area overlooking the pool and landscaped gardens – with room for a tennis or pickleball court.

Burns shares the list with colleague David Pullman.
