LeBron James was able to sell his Miami-based home back in August for 13.4 million but it seems that LeBron wasn’t done making real estate moves this year.
According to a report by Variety, James recently purchased a new home in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles for $21 million.
The home was reportedly built in 2011 and comes with six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a pool and a deck with a “panoramic view” of some mountains.
Now, before anyone reads too much into this purchase, it seems that the house’s Los Angeles location has nothing to do with a potential re-location for James. Call off the #LeBrontoLA hashtags for now.
“He likes L.A., he plans on spending time there in the summer, and he has a growing number of business opportunities,” said a source close to James. “No one should read this as any indication about basketball. It’s a vacation house.”
Considering how close this home is to Hollywood, hopefully this will give LeBron more opportunities to exercise his acting chops.
