Selling a house is a lot of work, especially if your house is priced at a whopping $10.995 million. Unfortunately, the NBA star Blake Griffin has had to learn this bitter truth the hard way, as his previous house located in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles is still reportedly on the market without having found an interested buyer.
Part of the reason why Griffin has not been able to sell his house may be due to the fact that everyone is aware of the price he paid when he initially bought the house, which was around $2 million less than what he is demanding for it right now.
Although it can be reasonably argued that this price appreciation is logical considering the fact that Griffin purchased the house around six years ago, still we bet buyers are hoping that this price will eventually drop, which is probably when they would make their bid.
An Impressive House
Although $11 million might seem like a lot of money, the features of the house certainly justify this price. For example, from the moment you enter the house you know, it is an exclusive property, with its gorgeous private gates keeping everyone who is not authorized to enter out of its premises.
The house itself is constructed on an area of 9600 sq. ft. and has three floors, and overall has been constructed in a way so that it takes full advantage of the Cape Cod coast that lies opposite to it. There is a gorgeous foyer on the main floor of the house that is 24 feet in height, with a floating staircase at the very center.
The presence of the floating staircase should not come as a surprise considering the fact that many celebrity homes have this feature these days.
The Main Floor
The main floor also has a gorgeous chandelier that does its job of providing a remarkable aesthetic to the house rather well. Overall, the aesthetic of the entire house looks very clean, thanks to the white millwork as well as the dark wooden flooring.
Apart from the abovementioned features, both the living and the dining spaces are located on this floor as well. There is another room called the Family Room, which has a fireplace as its defining feature, perhaps to bring the entire family together in front of the fireplace to engage in conversation.
Many Other Features
In addition to all these spaces, there are activity areas which offer plenty of options to have fun at the house. For example, residents can explore movies or TV shows in the home theater, while the entire family can play together in the game room. For those who are into fitness, there is an in-house gymnasium so that you don’t have to travel anywhere to perform your daily workout.
But perhaps the most luxurious room in the entire house is the master bedroom, which has its own seating area, a proper fireplace to maintain a comfortable temperature, and also a private balcony that protrudes outwards. However, its more impressive features are the heated floors as well as the tub which allows for deep soaking, plus a shower that mimics the ones available at resorts by throwing out steam.
