The South Beach mansion in Miami where Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace was shot to death is back up for grabs...at a price of a cool $125 million.

Originally built in 1930, the 10-bedroom, 11-bathroom, gated home features a 16m, 24-carat-gold lined swimming pool.

The opulent home, which the legendary designer spent an extra $33 million on in expansions, also comes with ornate statues, arched doorways and an open-air courtyard.

Versace was slain outside the house at 1116 Ocean Drive in 1997.

Tourists are still regularly spotted taking photos in front of the mansion.

The home’s current owner, self-made telecom billionaire Peter Loftin, bought the property in 2000. Coldwell Banker, the realtors handling the sale, says Loftin has preserved and maintained all of Versace’s design elements.
