Fisher Auction Company is handling the sale, set for Sept. 17. The 23,000-square-foot oceanfront mansion had been previously listed for $125 million.
Originally built in 1930, the 10-bedroom, 11-bathroom, gated home features a 54-foot-long mosaic pool lined with 24-karat gold. It also includes numerous frescos and ornate statues.
In 1997, the 50-year-old Versace was killed in front of the property by a man who later committed suicide.
Versace had many famous friends and clients including Princess Diana, Madonna, Elton John and Cher.
