Big Price Cut on Michael Jordan's Massive Mansion!
Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For SaleThis is the Highland Park family home of Juanita and Michael Jordan in suburban Chicago where they lived for almost 20 years until their divorce in 2006. Though it has been on the market for some time, the new price cut of $8 million should surely excite the interest of any Chicago Bulls fan who has $21 million to spend on the mansion that Air Jordan called home. It even has his famous uniform #23 molded onto the huge front entry gate.
If the future buyer is another sports celebrity - Derrick Rose comes to mind - the only thing they will need to change is the number on the front gate and move their own trophies inside. Hopefully they have a big family or a lot of very close friends to fill some of the space. This spectacular home is over 56,000 square feet and includes 9 bedrooms, 15 full and 4 half baths, with an impressive array of sports courts located in the lower level.
A dream for sports lovers, the story has just begun. On 8 acres, the rooms are huge and airy with high ceilings - naturally. But the crowning glory is the indoor regulation-sized basketball court with cushioned floors and motorized backboards along with a premium sound system. Then there is the indoor tennis court and putting green and outside, a deep-water pond and a climate controlled garage that will house 15 cars. It sells furnished, so all you'll need is your toothbrush and trophies.
Michael has since moved on to his Bears Club, Jupiter, Florida home that he built at 28,000 square feet and is now expanding. He lives there with his new fiancee, model Yvette Prieto with whom he has lived since 2009. Considered to be the athlete of the century by many and weathering a number of personal intrigues over the years, Michael has proven himself to be an astute businessman who maintains a steady course.
It is said that the mansion actually belongs to Juanita as part of her $168 million dollar property settlement agreement. With their children grown, it is not surprising that Juanita would want to turn the estate into cash, though considering the size of her settlement, she certainly doesn’t have to rush.
