MICHAEL Jordan has spent a decade trying to sell his custom-built Chicago mansion.
The NBA icon, 60, has been attempting to sell his lavish $14.65million Highland Park pad since 2013.
Michael Jordan’s estate in Chicago remаins for sale after a decade
The property has been designed to MJ’s specifications throughout
His astute business dealings have amassed an estimated fortune of over $2 billiоn for the legendary Chicago Bulls player. His imminent sale of the Charlotte Hornets’ majority stake is accompanied by an extravagant $61 million private aircraft tour of the globe. However, Jordan has been unable to sell his outlandish MJ-branded property since more than a decade ago, when it was first made available. At this time, Concierge Auctions has been tasked with producing an opulent advertisement to remove the Illinois jewel from the market. Although Jordan initially set the price for the opulent estate in Highland Park at an exоrbitant $29 million, he has since been cоmpelled to substantially decrease the deal. The mansion, which spans an enormous 56,000 square feet, is befitting of a sporting monarch.
Jordan oversaw the construction of the house from the ground up to his exacting standards.
The front gates leading to the seven-acre compound are adorned with his renowned No. 23 jersey number in a personalized touch. The prospective purchaser may unwind in the utmost luxury in one of the nine expansive and tasteful chambers available. Additionally, that fortunate proprietor and their visitors will never be shortchanged, as the site features 19 restrooms, 15 of which are fully occupied. On the property’s grounds, the legendary athlete Jordan constructed a full-size basketball court, a tennis court, and a miniature golf putting green. At the center of the court is his renowned Jumpman insignia; Jordan’s Chicago Bulls colleagues previously utilized the exclusive in-house fitness facility. In addition to a spacious infinity pool, a notable vegetation island is situated there to provide shade from the Chicago sun. Furthermore, should Jordan desire some leisure time, the residence can provide it in abundance.
A comfortable piano room is furnished with enormous leather couches in which to unwind. MJ has even remodeled an entire room to accommodate his cigar collection. It is common knowledge that the legendary basketball player enjoyed smoking, purportedly inhaling six Cuban cigars daily. Card tables are also set up in the cigar room in preparation for several rounds of high-stakes poker. In addition, Jordan’s mansion accommodates a cinema room, a wine vault brimming with thousands of vintage bottles, and an expansive library. The residence appears to be move-in ready; Jordan is currently awaiting a purchаser. The annual property taxes paid by MJ are presently $100,000, according to Business Insider. Additionally, to enhance the bargain, the six-time NBA champion is including an entire collection of Air Jordan Nike footwear with the purchаse.
