Michael Jordan first put his mansion in Highland Park on auction in 2012. During that time, it was valued at a whopping $29,000,000. It has been 11 years since and his Airness is yet to find a buyer who is willing to take over his shrine despite the price dropping to $14,900,000 pin present day.

He decided on his mansion in Highland Park after winning his first championship with the Chicago Bulls in 1991. He and his then-wife, Juanita Vanoy, purchased the ultra-luxury abode at $2,000,000. Even for that time, they had to pay a hefty price for the home. The mansion has housed all of Jordan’s memories, the wins, and losses he has suffered over the years.
The mansion contains everything you could ever imagine. It is spread over eight acres of land with a very secure suburb. There is a total of nine bedrooms in the house which is what you would expect. To boast about the 50,000 square foot home, there is also an indoor basketball court where you could expect him to have practiced. Take a look at the tweet by JordanDepot below to see the house.

That said, with the tag ‘Michael Jordan’s house’ on the mansion, the market size is scanty. While the mansion is incredibly well made, purchasing a property whose sole purpose is to act as a shrine for another person is a large part of why suitors aren’t all too eager to put a foot through the door.
There are very few buyers who are expecting to buy such an ultra-luxury property which would require immense maintenance. Also, no one would be eager to spend a huge sum of money to advertise the property.
