The NBA legend’s sprawling estate was most recently listed at $14.8 million, but according to listing agent Katherine Malkin of Compass Realty, the 32,000-square-foot abode reportedly went under contract as of September and the sale has now officially closed, as confirmed by NBC Chicago.
However, according to the listing, the final price was $9.5 million which had the closing date set at Dec. 10. The 56,000 square-foot property, which comes equipped with every luxury amenity imaginable, has been on and off the market for 12 years. It was originally listed for $29 million in March 2012 according to property records, then dropped to $14.855 million in 2015.
Per the listing, "NBA Superstar Michael Jordan's seven-acre estate is as legendary as His Airness himself," and it goes on to list the custom-designed property's endless amenities which include “a regulation-sized basketball gymnasium, circular infinity pool, putting green, tennis court, and cigar room, each with Jordan's signature touch."
