NBA forward Jeff Green has closed the sale of his custom-built mansion in Miami's Pinecrest neighborhood for approximately $15.5 million, marking another high-profile transaction in an area that has become a magnet for professional athletes.
The property, which Green and his wife Stephanie completed in 2022, sits on a one-acre lot and spans 10,400 square feet of living space. It includes seven bedrooms, six-and-a-half bathrooms, a home theater, a gym, two laundry rooms, and a four-car garage. The outdoor area features a swimming pool, a summer kitchen, and a professionally lighted basketball court—a nod to Green's 18-season NBA career.
Green originally purchased the land in 2017 and oversaw the construction of the home, which was finished just in time for 2022. The final sale price came in below the initial asking price, but the transaction still underscores the high value of real estate in this non-coastal pocket of Miami-Dade County.
Pinecrest: A Growing Hub for Athletes
Pinecrest has increasingly become a preferred enclave for NBA players and other sports figures. Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro and pitcher Luis Severino have also invested in nearby properties recently, while former players like Dion Waiters and Lamar Odom have called the area home. The village offers a blend of luxury and family-friendly tranquility that appeals to high-profile residents seeking privacy.
For the local Latino community, Pinecrest represents a symbol of success and upward mobility. The neighborhood's appeal extends beyond basketball: it's a place where families from across the Americas can find a sense of stability and prestige. As the area continues to attract athletes and celebrities, its real estate market remains robust.
Green's departure from this custom estate opens the door for a new owner to inherit one of the most complete homes in Miami-Dade. The property's combination of sports amenities, entertainment spaces, and tropical outdoor living makes it a rare find in a market that prizes both luxury and functionality.
For those following the intersection of sports and real estate, this sale is a reminder of how athletes like Green—who has played for teams including the Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Denver Nuggets—invest in their futures off the court. It also highlights the enduring appeal of Miami as a destination for those who have made their mark in the league.
As the new owner settles into this Pinecrest gem, the home stands as a testament to Green's career and the lifestyle that South Florida offers to those who can afford it.
