Michael Jordan‘s famous former mansion has been turned into an Airbnb after sitting on the market for over a decade. Can you imagine staying in the same house that MJ used to call home? It’s like a basketball fan’s dream come true!
The mansion is located in Highland Park, Illinois, and has all the luxurious amenities you could ever dream of. From a basketball court to a massive pool.
Jordan tried to offload the mansion back in 2012 with a $29 million asking price. But the market didn’t bite. Not even close. It sat unsold for 12 years as the price dropped again and again. Finally, in 2024, real estate investor John Cooper bought it for $9.5 million, according to NBC News.
Cooper initially had other ideas. He announced plans to convert Jordan’s iconic property into a timeshare resort called Champion’s Point, offering weeklong stays for $1 million each. That pitch didn’t quite land either.
Now, Cooper’s playing a different game. He’s tossing the keys to short-term renters on Airbnb, hoping the Luxe listing will lure big spenders. The current pricing for Labor Day weekend is a stunning $120,920 for a seven-night minimum stay. If you fill all 14 beds, that’s still over $1,200 a night per person.
The Airbnb listing calls it a “private oasis.” Fair enough. Between the zero-entry infinity pool, full-size court, and endless entertainment options, it’s less a house and more of a five-star retreat with Jordan’s fingerprints all over it.
Still, that price point doesn’t scream “accessible.” It’s for those who want bragging rights, not just a vacation.
So if you’ve got some extra cash to spare and you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, why not book a stay at Michael Jordan’s former mansion on Airbnb? It’s the ultimate way to live like a legend for a few nights!
