NBA icon Michael Jordan expands his real estate portfolio in Florida. We have details
Michael Jordan is cementing his status as a Florida man.
The basketball icon apparently likes his gated golf community in Jupiter so much that he went ahead and bought even more property there.
As per Palm Beach County property records, Jordan paid $16.5 million for a mansion near his original estate at the exclusive Bear’s Club, which was founded by PGA great Jack Nicklaus.
Jordan’s 9,100-square-foot, five bedroom, six bathroom home has more than enough room for him and his family. The ex baller, who has five children in total, shares 10year-old twin daughters with his second wife, Yvette Prieto.
According to Palm Beach County records, the sale of the home went down on March 27. The buyer was listed as Illinois-based Bull & Bear, the NBA legend’s LLC. Jordan’s mother-in-law, Maria Prieto of Keller Williams Capital Realty, represented him in the transaction.
His Airness’ new pad, built in 2017, includes a four-car garage, vaulted ceilings, summer kitchen, pool, heated spa, guest house and lake views.
“Experience the pinnacle of luxury living with this contemporary estate,” reads the description of 103 W Bears Club Drive.
So, at 61, is Jordan about to spend the rest of days chilling in the Sunshine State? Because money is definitely not an object. Last August, the athlete turned mogul sold his majority stake in the Charlotte Hornets for $3.1 billion.
Just last week, Jordan landed on Forbes’ list of world billionaires, at No. 1,032.
