Inside Rory McIlroy and Erica Stoll's stunning nine-bed mansion 'at risk' of Hurricane Milton
Rory McIlroy and Erica Stoll's £17million Florida mansion is on high alert with the deadly Hurricane Milton causing their Jupiter community to be placed under a 'tropical storm warning'
Rory McIlroy and Erica Stoll's £17million Florida mansion is among the lavish homes placed on high alert with the deadly Hurricane Milton sweeping through the American state.
The couple live in Jupiter, which is said to be prime real estate for golfers due to the many courses in the area, with Shane Lowry and Tiger Woods also owning homes in the community. The Northern Irishman, 35, has lived in Jupiter since buying the luxurious abode in 2011 from fellow golf legend Ernie Els for £8.4million ($11million).
Now said to be worth double the price at £16.8m ($22m), the nine-bed mansion is situated in an area under a weather warning from Hurricane Milton, which is sweeping through Florida less than two weeks after Hurricane Helene devastated the state.
Built in 2002, the South Florida residence is situated on 2.4 acres of land while it's believed to boast 10 bathrooms on top of the nine bedrooms in the property.

The four-time major champion and his wife of seven years are certainly lapping in luxury with their mansion featuring an infinity pool, as well as a games room, tennis court, home theatre, recording studio and state-of-the-art gym.
The 13,000-square-foot home also has a six-car garage, which comes in handy for McIlroy, who has a £900,000 car collection. Tees for a hole for a golf course are also located just outside the couple's home, which is surrounded by several palm trees.
The 35-year-old was competing in Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland days before the arrival of Hurricane Milton. McIlroy finished joint-25th as LIV Golf star Tyrrell Hatton narrowly earned the tournament win over Nicolas Colsaerts.
Jupiter has since been placed under a 'tropical storm warning' and declared a State of Emergency on Wednesday (October 9) with official warnings citing 'threat to life and property'.
The National Hurricane Centre has forewarned residents of potentially unseen destruction in west-central Florida by the storm with more than three million homes suffering a loss of power during the natural disaster. Local were urged to evacuate prior to the storm's arrival, with 'catastrophic' wind damage and severe flash flooding decimating the state. There have been two-hurricane related deaths in Florida county thus far.
According to the Weather Channel, while Milton is currently tracking away from Florida, high winds, flooding rain and storm surge will continue to attack until it heads farther into the Atlantic. However, at the time of writing, a tropical storm warning remains in effect for Jupiter, Florida.
