After 12 years on the market, basketball legend Michael Jordan has finally found a buyer for his luxurious $15 million Chicago mansion. The stunning property, located in the suburb of Chicago, boasts 19 bathrooms and a lot more.
The sale of Michael Jordan’s mansion marks the end of an era for the basketball icon, who has owned the property since the early 1990s. The identity of the buyer has not been disclosed, but they will be the owner of one of the most prestigious and well-known homes in the Chicago area.
The 56,000-square-foot estate is currently listed as “contingent,” indicating the would-be buyer and MJ have a deal, but it’s contingent upon several conditions being met.
The property is located in Highland Park, Illinois … and it’s got a bunch of amenities, including the iconic No. 23 gate, nine bedrooms, 19 bathrooms, a cigar room, a library, an indoor gym, and of course, a full-sized basketball court.
The seven-acre lot also has a circular infinity pool and tennis court.
The crib was also featured in Travis Scott’s music video “FRANCHISE.”
The house was built in 1995 — when Jordan was on the Chicago Bulls — and the last listed price was $14,855,000 … which equals (1+4+8+5+5) 23 when you add the digits.
It’s a huge drop from the initial asking price in 2012 … when the place was listed for $29 million. The price has been around $15 million since 2015 … but no luck selling until now.
This successful sale not only highlights the enduring appeal of Michael Jordan as a sports legend but also showcases the high-end luxury real estate market in Chicago. With its prime location, top-of-the-line amenities, and celebrity history, it’s no surprise that this magnificent mansion has finally found a buyer.
