NBA star Jrue Holiday is wasting no time cutting ties to the Boston Celtics as he is now offloading his Massachusetts dwelling for $6.9 million, just months after being traded to the Portland Trail Blazers.
The 35-year-old—who was traded from the Boston-based team to the Portland Trail Blazers in July—listed the 8,850-square-foot abode on Oct. 1, as first reported by the New York Post.
The basketball icon snapped up the sprawling home, which is situated in Newton, in May 2024 for $6.5 million.
The property, which was built in 2024, comes complete with six bedrooms, and 7.5 bathrooms.
Nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac, this brand-new, modern home epitomizes luxury. Large, bright rooms; lots of chic, blond wood; plus a simple, white-and-beige palette add up to an inescapably upscale vibe.
According to the listing, the home “offers the rare combination of a prime location, modern luxury, and exceptional craftsmanship.”
The property boasts a modern facade and is surrounded by lush greenery.
Upon entering the home, guests are greeted with an expansive living area, complete with expansive glass doors that open up to the exterior and allow natural light to flood inside, and a cozy fireplace situated inside a marble mantle.
Adjacent to the large lounging room, there is also a chic chef’s kitchen, which is “outfitted with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, an oversized island, and sleek quartz countertops” and is described as the “heart of the home,” as per the listing.
There is also a charming breakfast nook next to kitchen, which is the perfect place for people to gather.
Elsewhere on the first level, there is a sophisticated office space and an elegant dining room, which boasts black wallpaper adorned with trees and birds.
The lower level is the epitome of an entertainer’s dream as it features a custom home theatre that allows guests to bring the movie theater experience to their house.
There is also a temperature-controlled wine room and a private gym that boasts its own sauna.
Moving upstairs, there is a large primary suite with a large marble wall, that holds a huge TV and fireplace.
It also leads to the primary bathroom, which features a chic his and her vanity, a soaking tub, and a large glass shower—all surrounded by marble walls.
There is also a custom-designed closet, that comes complete with plenty of space for future owners to get their glam on.
Moving outside, guests can entertain and lounge at one of the many areas.
“Outdoors, a fully fenced backyard is an entertainers dream, boasting a custom-designed outdoor kitchen and patio for gatherings year-round. Additional highlights include a three-car garage, meticulous landscaping, and designer details at every turn,” the listing adds.
Holiday starred in college for the UCLA Bruins, before being drafted in the first round in 2009 by the Philadelphia 76ers.
After four years with the Sixers, Holiday went on to play for the New Orleans Pelicans and the Milwaukee Bucks before joining the Celts this season.
During the five games in last year’s NBA finals, Holiday averaged 14.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 3.8 assists. His four-year contract with the Celtics, which he inked in April of this year, is worth $135 million. When he’s not on the East Coast, the Southern California native also has a home in Chatsworth, CA.
