Michael Jordan with the Chicago Bulls

Michael Jordan was born in New York, raised and educated in North Carolina and became a man in Chicago. In the city of Illinois he developed a large part of his sports career in what is considered by many to be the best career of an NBA player. As it could not be otherwise, thanks to a remarkable patrimony that he formed by his actions on the court and in the world of sneakers, he acquired a mansion in the north of the city, more specifically in Highland Park.

This new home of ‘Mike‘ was acquired in 1991, although he finished renovating it in 1995, the year in which he returned from baseball to face his second stint with the Chicago Bulls. For a decade (2012) he has had it for sale, but has never been able to sell it due to the lack of interest in buyers.

The basketball legend stipulated the price at 29 million dollars, but has had to lower the price progressively until now, which costs just under 15m. The mansion has nine bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, a basketball court, a tennis court, its own gym and a movie theater on 5,000 interior meters and 2.8 exterior hectares.

On the main gate there is a no.23, an unmistakable element that you are in the house of ‘Air Jordan‘. This could be one of the reasons for the non-sale, since such a special and customized dwelling would keep some investors away from the final purchase of the mansion. In addition to not unlocking the transaction, in April this year, an 18-year-old raided the mansion and showed its interior in a video that went viral on TikTok. For this, he is facing several charges with the US justice system.
