athletes like to get the same kinds of decadent modern homes that movie stars rappers and tech
billionaires do and in one case a multi-million dollar castle the celebrated yet controversial
golfer tiger woods is apparently worth 800 million dollars so of course he would buy a
54 million dollar home that screams i am the best golfer in the world it is a 9 700 square
foot property with two separate sections it is a modern looking home with plenty of greenery
straight lines and long spaces you'd expect a professional golfer to appreciate inside the home
looks like a lot of celebrity homes nowadays the first is a 3 300 square foot living quarters white
walls and floors plenty of comfy yet noticeably expensive furniture and plenty of art hanging
everywhere the second building is a six thousand four hundred square foot multi-purpose building
it includes a world-class gym a theater and a multimedia room not to mention an oxygen therapy
room as far as other amenities go it features a tennis court a basketball court a fitness center
and of course multiple pools one is a 100 foot swimming lap pool and the other is a 60-foot
diving pool near the ocean is a private dock for his boats he also created his own practice
facility to keep his skills sharp it features four greens six bunkers and multiple types of sand
he can also hit balls off of his second story studio everyone in hollywood seems to be going
for the same wider than an apple store color scheme with a ton of natural light and open space
well i'm here to tell you that the california home of lebron james puts all of those to shame
it's been called a masterpiece of light and design and i gotta say i agree this is the only home that
costs 23 million dollars that i think should be more expensive the architecture of this home takes
the boxy modern la trend and perfects it this home is all windows grand open spaces and style
after you get past the courtyard of concentric brick circles you'll see an 8 bedroom 11 bath
home full of marble countertops marble walls and natural french oak floors
walking through the home you'll see a chef's kitchen huge walk-in closets a private patio from
the master bedroom and a lovely rooftop terrace i can't get over how meticulously designed all of
this is i mean the home theater even has an area with marble countertops the pool table looks like
it's in an art show if that isn't classy enough for you his garage is called an auto gallery
special editions include a wine cellar cigar lounge onyx bar indoor slash outdoor gym spa and
pool that blends perfectly into the home is it too on the nose to say that lebron james has a house
that dunks on all the rest i mean it's accurate but i feel like it's a little too on the nose
guys derek jeter lives in a castle the famous baseball star has amassed 200 million dollars
so i guess i would expect him to live somewhere extravagant but a freaking castle
his neighbors in tampa have apparently coined the home saint jetersburg which is kind of perfect
honestly the 29 million dollar 22 000 square foot stonework estate may look like something you'd see
in the middle ages from a distance but not inside the interior of the home is beautifully modern in
a way i wish more celebrity homes were it ditches that white-on-white color palette for black walls
and columns against white marble floors this aesthetic is constant throughout the house and
even the spiral staircase the home seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms also fit this style with huge
showers and black and white cabinets it has plenty of open space several curved living spaces a
kitchen with two islands and a master bedroom with a small fireplace beyond that it has a wine cellar
a home theater a professional gym and an all-wood office the porch has 9000 square feet that leads
to an 80-foot saltwater lap pool and luxury heated spa beyond that is a private dock with two boat
lifts the real cell of this house is the beautiful view though i mean looking out your kitchen into
miles of blue sky melting into darker blue water beneath it probably never gets old this is by far
the classiest place in the world to repel an army of invading vikings depending on where you are
in the united states tom brady is either the most beloved and most hated football player of all time
love it more hate him you've got to respect the skill that's earned him 250 million dollars
he put 40 million into buying a huge estate presumably just to rub it in the faces of fans
who hate his guts it's a sprawling tan and blue estate with a pool that blends into the
architecture of the home better than any i've ever seen despite its massive size the interior
is a lot more relaxed than you'd expect every single room is decorated as if it's a cover for
a magazine like home and garden this is likely due to brady's wife the stylish model gisele boonchen
the highly instagramable home features wood floors plenty of open space greenery throughout and is
intricately decorated it features a private yoga room and home gym but it is a little light on
some of the usual amenities the bradys were really looking for a sanctuary away from all the fame you
can't just pass a house like this onto any normal buyer you've gotta find a buyer who is cool enough
to be worthy of it that's why selling it to dr dre for 40 mil was perfect their 33 million boston
home is just as peaceful and instagramable as you'd expect the 10 000 square foot brick mansion
estate sits on five acres of land it features the same exact carefully curated style and simplicity
unfortunately they had to sell this one too now that their families moved to florida so where are
they living now they're living in the freaking castle st jetersburg itself shaquille o'neal

take any endorsement no matter how ridiculous say what you want about the sillier side of shaq he's
managed to pull in 400 million dollars the 16 million dollar 31 000 square foot estate in the
gated golf community of islesworth outside orlando florida is as big and bold as the man himself as
you'd expect once you go inside you see a ceiling height built to accommodate the seven foot one
athlete the entire house is that same immaculate white that's so popular right now further inside
you'll see a walk-in closet a beautiful marble master bedroom and a room of memorabilia from his
career of course then there's his giant superman bed which i need in my house it also features a
showroom that holds 17 cars a cigar room a safe room a home theater a wine cellar and a recording
studio most importantly he has a 6 000 square foot miami heat themed basketball court in october of
2021 he managed to sell his mega mansion for 11 mil that's a 60 drop from his first asking price
of 28 mil the real estate game really doesn't care who you are or how many funny commercials you make
it's hard to describe just how exciting it was to watch michael phelps swim in the olympics
back in the day he was the biggest athlete in america back at his peak he lived in
this swanky 2.5 million mansion in the paradise valley area of phoenix arizona
the home had a spread out crisp white and red aesthetic perfect for the rustic area
it was a six thousand and ten square foot house with five bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms
of course it also had a giant pool for him to practice in alas those days are over and he sold
this home for 3.5 million in 2018. he moved into another place in paradise valley for 6.1 million
the home has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms and features a ton of recreational spaces
including a barbecue area hot tub sauna wet bar and pool now he's retired with only his beautiful
family and his 80 million dollars to comfort him poor guy michael jordan is still one of the most
popular athletes of all time despite some recent controversies the athlete is worth 1.6 billion
dollars and has a 29 million dollar house fit for one of the greatest basketball players of all time
the 56 000 square foot chicago mansion isn't subtle about who owns it seriously the main
gate has a giant 23 in it past the long driveway you'll see a big compound that kind of looks like
the world's swankiest prison once you walk inside you'll immediately see a piano that beckons you
to one of the many sitting rooms then you'll see a master living room with brown walls framing a
big tv that kind of classy man cave aesthetic is consistent throughout the house including
the cigar room and the wine cellar i mean his billiards room has doors from the original playboy
mansion there are also nice eating areas with a skylight a round sitting area perfect for guests
9 bedrooms and 16 baths of course it also features a basketball court as the centerpiece
with the name written on both sides and his logo in the center it also features some of the go-to
celebrity amenities like an infinity pool a putting green a pond filled with fish and a
tennis court despite the fact that this is his dream home it's proven to be impossible to sell
he apparently has to pay a hundred thousand dollars in property taxes every year in hindsight
maybe it was a mistake to build a house that was specifically built for michael jordan and michael
jordan alone david and victoria beckham live in exactly the kind of house you'd think they would
they live in a 40.9 million dollar home in london's exclusive holland park area
if you are wondering yes it does look like it should be featured on the crown
once the beckhams show off their family pictures it's kind of shocking how normal it all seems
the kitchen has wood floors and marble counters the family seems to spend a great deal of time
cooking together like a perfectly average yeah right while the family might take plenty of picks
with them around their london homes fireplace they also have had other enormous properties one is a
1.6 million dollar seven bedroom dubai villa that's nicer than most resorts then there was
beckingham palace their 3.3 million dollar estate it featured a petting zoo a woodland chapel fake
ancient ruins forming a playground and a football pitch it also had not so kid-friendly quirks like
mirrored ceilings in the room victoria described as a tarts boudoir with leopard print walls
yeah no matter how many times they try to fool you into thinking they're a perfectly normal
family don't buy it the average nba salary is 7.9 million do you think if i started
training really really hard that i could get a house like these i'm not looking for honesty
