The Miami Heat’s former star player Dwyane Wade wants to complete one last sale in Miami Beach.
Wade, who retired from the NBA this year, listed his home at 5980 North Bay Road for $32.5 million, according to an eblast the listing agent sent out without disclosing the owner. The Wall Street Journal first reported the deal.
The six-bedroom, 13,800-square-foot mansion includes a wine room – likely with some bottles from his winery, D Wade Cellars – a game room, outdoor basketball court and a home theater. He paid about $10.6 million for the house in 2010 and later renovated it. It also has 165 feet of bay frontage.
Brett Harris of Douglas Elliman is the listing agent. He declined to comment.
Wade and his wife, actress Gabrielle Union, are now based in Los Angeles. Last year, they paid just under $6 million for a five-bedroom, 8,650-square-foot house in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood. Union is a judge on “America’s Got Talent” and is co-starring in “L.A.’s Finest” with Jessica Alba. Wade’s son and nephew also play high school basketball alongside the son of his former teammate, LeBron James, at the Sierra Canyon School in L.A.
