Michael Jordan’s Chicago Mansion

It well may be because he stands at a staggering 6 ft 6 in, but Michael Jordan aims high whatever he does. Whether it’s about sports or women, cars or houses, he just wants the best. It’s not a coincidence that the NBA star has been living in this extraordinary luxurious estate in Highland Park, Illinois. The memorable player of the Chicago Bulls bought it in 1995, at the peak of his brilliant career in the world of basketball. But he has been trying to sell it without success since 2012. In spite of the fact that it is a magnificent mansion, no buyer has come forward so far, probably due to the price: nowadays, the house is for sale at nearly 15 million dollars, but the request was initially 29.

The house that belonged to Michael Jordan occupies an overall surface of 5200 square meters, and it’s surrounded by more than two hectares of land. It is made of nine bedrooms, fifteen bathrooms, a kitchen, a recreation room, a gym, a cigar rooms and a living area with sitting room and dining room. On the outside there’s a round pool, luxuriant gardens, tennis courts and golf courses. The property of the most beloved basketball players of all times has one last surprise: a “temple” of basket, of course, just not out in the open, but rather in a detached wing of the house itself. For his Illinois villa, the unforgettable Air wanted a regulation-size court, complete with parquet, suspended hoops, lighting system, ceiling beams and locker rooms.

As far as the main rooms in the villa are concerned, suffice to say that every corner of this art deco property oozes luxury and wealth. Sometime after purchasing it, Michael Jordan had it renovated from top to bottom in such a way that it was customized and tailor-made according to his taste. Nowadays it is a real star mansion, carefully perfected in all details, furnished in good taste and impeccably refined. For example, the living room is packed with design elements that come together perfectly: there are sofas and armchairs in neutral colors, modern end tables and, of course, a giant plasma TV.
