A Luxurious Daydream Describes the $34 Million Newport Coast Mansion Owned by NBA Star Zach LaVine

The identity of the buyer who spent $34 million for a property in Newport Coast has been revealed to be NBA All-Star Zach LaVine of the Chicago Bulls.

LaVine began his professional career with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Pelican Crest is a gated community in which Vanessa Bryant and Paul Merage, the inventor of Hot Pockets, live. Last month, the Orange County Register speculated that LaVine might now own the palatial house, which is the most expensive estate ever sold in Pelican Crest.

The rumor that the new homeowner is a professional athlete was widespread, and the Orange County Register suggested that LaVine might now own the house.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In spite of the fact that the real estate market saw a decline in March, qualified buyers were still able to acquire pricey properties. The listing agents finally received three bids on the house during the first two weeks that it was on the market. This occurred after a significant number of showings of the home had been conducted. After several failed attempts to close escrow, the sellers ultimately decided to accept LaVine’s offer of $34 million for their property.

The fact that LaVine wants a huge estate is not something that should come as a surprise. The person who sold his first Newport Coast property for $215 million did so in Crystal Cove, which was a smaller but aesthetically equivalent estate than the one he sold in Newport Coast. The Seattle resident, who is only 28 years old, has also placed his home in a Washington state suburb on the market.

The residence located in Pelican Crest that was constructed in 2010 has been referred to as “timeless” and “irreplaceable.” Rob and Ami Douk are the new owners of the estate, which they initially purchased for $14.7 million and then afterwards renovated in the form of a Tuscan villa. The property is one of the largest lots in the neighborhood and features a gated entrance in addition to its location at the end of a cul-de-sac on a lot that measures 0.79 acres in size.

The master bedroom of LaVine and Hunter’s new home in Orange County will include a walk-in closet with a “Yves Saint Laurent-themed” design. The residence will also include a state-of-the-art gym, an infrared sauna, a wine cellar, games area, and a golf simulator.

In addition to that, there will be two islands in the gourmet kitchen that are topped with marble. The glass doors that fold away into the walls give the impression that the interior spaces are much larger and more light-filled than they actually are.

The unobstructed views of the sun rising and setting over the Pacific Ocean in a southwesterly direction are provided by the pie-shaped lot that makes up the property. This makes the pie-shaped lot the most desirable feature of the real estate. In exchange for views of this kind, LaVine will have to spend $34 million in addition to the $843 monthly HOA dues.
