When it comes to real estate, the Boston Celtics players (and owners) have impressive portfolios: Former Celtics co-owner Ron Sargent reeled in $11.5 million for a Back Bay townhouse, his colleague Stephen Pagliuca listed his Weston residence for nearly $9 million in 2023, former player Al Horford listed a Brookline modern also for almost $9 million last year, while Jaylen Brown put a cool penthouse on the market for $4.75 million.
Most recently, as news of his trade from the Celtics to the Portland Trail Blazers became public, NBA champion Jrue Holiday sold this Newton contemporary for $6.699 million. Seemingly a breezy, slam-dunk sale, Holiday scooped up the newly-built suburban spread—about 30 minutes from TD Garden—in May 2024 for $6.5 million.
The contemporary facade is complete with light wood accents, black windows, and a couple of outdoor terraces. Inside, the architectural details match the exterior, with light wood floors, plenty of pretty stone and marble, and unique lighting adding sleek glamour.
The floorplan clocks in at 8,850 square feet with six bedrooms and nine bathrooms, as well as high ceilings perfect for a basketball player. The primary suite boasts a floating gas fireplace, large walk-in closet, spacious bathroom, and a private terrace. The lower-level is the ultimate hangout zone, with an additional living room, movie theater, walk-in wine cellar. Of course, there is a home gym for training and a sauna for unwinding, presumably after long training sessions.
Yi Song of Space Realty represented the buyer, while Celtics-favorite George Sarkis of The Sarkis Team at Douglas Elliman represented the listing. Keep an eye on Portland to see where the point guard settles down next.
