The former NBA star had to cut his asking price in half.

Michael Jordan is about to part with one of his most prized possessions… after 12 years of trying. The former Chicago Bulls star has finally found a buyer for the fabulous mansion that was his family home for most of his NBA career.

The mansion is located in Highland Park, a suburb of Chicago, Illinois, and was the home of the Jordan family from 1995 until 2012, when the six-time NBA champion decided to put it up for sale.

The price tag at the time was $29 million. However, just a handful of buyers have that kind of money in their pockets, and the majestic mansion remained unbidden for a long time.

According to TMZ, Jordan has already found a buyer for the house, although at almost half of its original value. The new price is $14,855,000, yet the deal is listed as “contingent,” meaning one or both parties still have to meet several conditions to close the deal.

A mansion fit for His Air Majesty

The 56,000-square-foot mansion sits on seven acres of land. Jordan bought it at the height of his career and remodeled it to his liking. Visitors are initially greeted by a large golden gate adorned with the iconic number 23.

The estate features a full-size basketball court, a circular infinity pool, and a tennis court. The main house has nine bedrooms, 19 bathrooms, five fireplaces, a cigar room, a library, and an indoor gym.

The buyer’s name remains unknown, but they undoubtedly got a bargain and one of Michael Jordan’s greatest treasures. The Chicago Bulls great may not miss it as much since he also has homes fit for a king in North Carolina and Florida.

By the way, the sale price also appears to be a very Jordan-esque joke, as the digits added together-1+4+8+5+5-equal 23.
