- By John Przybys

A Spring Valley home owned by tennis great Andre Agassi is listed for sale.

And yes, it comes with a tennis court.

The 4,573-square-foot home at 4944 Spanish Heights Drive is listed for $2.39 million. According to a listing for the four-bedroom, five-bath home posted this week on the real estate website Zillow.com, the home’s tennis court is one that Agassi “trained on during his profession­al career.”

Agassi, a Las Vegas native, won eight Grand Slam titles and is a 1996 Olympic gold medal winner. According to Clark County records, Andre Agassi is owner of the property and his father, Emanuel “Mike” Agassi, transferre­d ownership to him last year.

The home was built in 1993 and is in guard-gated Spanish Hills Estates. According to the listing, after entering the front foyer through double doors, a visitor can follow a circu

lar stairway to a master upper-level retreat that features a bath, closet/ dressing room and a balcony that looks over the pool and tennis court.

A two-sided fireplace divides the living room and a formal dining space, and kitchen features include double-wall ovens and a center island with a gas cooktop.

Agassi, 51, retired from pro tennis in 2006 and was inducted into the Internatio­nal Tennis Hall of Fame in 2011. He and 22-time Grand Slam champion Steffi Graf were married in 2001.

Agassi also has become known for his philanthro­pic efforts over the years. For many years, his nonprofit foundation sponsored “Grand Slam for Children” concerts to raise money for programs to benefit local at-risk youth. He founded a K-12 charter school for children living in Las Vegas’ Historic Westside and founded a Boys & Girls Club center there.
