The World Series is here, and it's a battle of the titans both on the field and in the real estate market! The New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers, two teams from the nation's most valuable housing markets, are facing off, and their star players have some seriously impressive homes. Let's take a peek into where these baseball giants live when they're not hitting home runs.
Dodgers Digs: Close to the Diamond
Dodger players seem to favor proximity to Dodger Stadium, perhaps a strategic move to avoid LA's notorious traffic.
- Shohei Ohtani: Though he might be selling it, Ohtani recently purchased a $7.85 million modern mansion in La Cañada Flintridge, complete with an infinity pool and stunning views.
- Mookie Betts: This outfielder prefers the celebrity-studded Encino neighborhood, where he recently upgraded to a $15 million estate boasting a whopping 8 bedrooms and its own golf hole!
- Freddie Freeman: Freeman opted for a newly built home in Studio City with a black-bottom pool and fire pit, but it seems he's already looking to move on.
Yankees Abodes: City vs. Suburbs
Yankees players, on the other hand, are split between the vibrant city life and the spacious suburbs.
- Aaron Judge: This star outfielder chose the urban life, snapping up two condo units in a newly built West Chelsea high-rise with breathtaking views of the Hudson River.
- Gerrit Cole: Cole prefers the suburban life in affluent Greenwich, Connecticut, enjoying a 10,000-square-foot home with a pool and expansive deck.
- Anthony Volpe: This young shortstop is back in his childhood city, living in a Central Park West apartment, but rumors suggest he might be eyeing a move downtown.
Whether it's a luxurious mansion in the hills of LA or a sleek condo overlooking the Hudson River, these baseball stars have certainly found some winning homes. It just goes to show that no matter where you are in the real estate market, there's a perfect property out there to match your lifestyle and aspirations.
