Two mansions built for identical twins in Florida are on the market for $54 million.
The side-by-side homes are separated by a large private lake, and span 11 acres of gated property.

Two mansions built for identical twins are on sale in Florida for $54 million.

Robert Lewin, a chiropractor, said he built the houses for himself and his twin Harley Lewin to live in with their families, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Lewin made his fortune launching 1-800-411-PAIN, an attorney-referral service for victims of accidents, say reports.

"Being twins, we've always been so close, so it didn't feel right not living close to one another," Robert Lewin said, per the paper. "Of course, during COVID, having our families together on this beautiful property was a great benefit and made it much more manageable."

The two houses span 11 acres of gated property in Southwest Ranches, 20 miles from Fort Lauderdale, include a shared garden with 20 varieties of fruit, and are separated by a large private lake filled with bass fish and fountains.

The twins, who have always lived close to one another, could continue the tradition in their next home. Lewin said he and his brother are considering living under one roof. "The umbilical cord will be reconnected," he said, reported Mansion Global.
