While Woods might have his own four-hole backyard golf course, Jordan will have Jack Nicklaus's renowned Bear's Club course in his backyard......blogs.golf.
Photographs of Jordan's 28,000-square-foot home, which is still under construction, first appeared on Palm Beach County Realtors Jeff & Cary Lichtenstein's Blog earlier this week. Below are photos of his corner lot and more description of the estate from Lichtenstein:
MJ's choice of a 3-acre homesite at the Bears Club is not all that unpredictable. His desire for privacy will certainly be well-served there, as entry to the Bears Club is well guarded.
His home has already been landscaped with a literal forest of trees, giving little or no glimpse of his mammoth 28,000 sq. ft. home, together with 3 separate structures; a guard house, guest house and pool house.
He paid $4.8m for the land and $7.6m for the construction, making this $12.4m mansion probably the most expensive non-waterfront home in the Palm Beaches. MJ's total commitment when furnished will probably exceed $20m.
Jordan's house has 11 bedrooms, 6 on the 2nd floor alone, a 2-story guard house, an athletic wing together with basketball court and lavish workout facility. It's rumored his huge media room with state-of-the-art electronics is 'cigar friendly.'
The Bears Club is already being used extensively by MJ. His usual routine is to play golf from sunrise to sunset. His handicap varies from 3-7, dependent on the difficulty of the golf course and whether he is spraying his drives.
