Inside Serena Williams’ $14 million LA mansion
Tennis champion Serena Williams has slashed the price of her six-bedroom, seven-bathroom Bel-Air mansion in Los Angeles, after spending almost one year on the property market.
Originally for sale with an asking price of US$12 million (AUD $16.4 million), the price has now been slashed to US$9.99 million (AUD$13.8 million), after not getting any interest in the lavish home.
Set on one of the largest lots in the local neighbourhood of Stone Canyon, the private, tree-lined residence is equipped with everything a sporting star could need, including a personal gym, a large swimming pool and a number of private hiking trails surrounding the home.
However, there is something rather important missing from the property: a tennis court. Perhaps the new mum likes to keep her work and home lives separate?
Built in 1935, the 556-square metre traditional home boasts high ceilings, a private salon, bar and numerous delicate chandeliers.
Williams purchased the home in 2006 for US$9.5 million.
At the time the tennis legend put the sprawling property on the market, she was rumoured to be searching for a new, family-friendly home to move into with her baby daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr, and husband, Reddit founder Alexiz Ohanian.
Maybe her new home will have a tennis court this time around? You can view the incredible Bel-Air property in the gallery above.
