Ellison previously bought a residential complex in 2022 for $173 million, and MacNiel acquired a 7.8-acre property in February for $68.3 million, planning to expand his home. He has also signed a contract to buy a third adjacent lot for around $36 million. The sellers were Ralph and Meri Guezewald, who purchased the property in 2020 for $10.3 million.
