    Michael Jordan's new $20 million home


    A few weeks back, we brought you a look at Tiger Woods' fine new $50 million bachelor pad. We follow that up today with the first look at Michael Jordan's swank digs in Jack Nicklaus' new "Bear's Club" development in Jupiter, Fla.

    Analysis by Cary Lichtenstein of PGA National Real Estate indicates that Jordan paid $4.8 million for the land and $7.8 to build the Mansion, and will likely have a total commitment of $20 million in the property when all is said and done. And while Woods' property comprises three lots with both ocean and Intracoastal Waterway access, Jordan's has neither, which could compromise its resale value. (See if you can bargain him down!)
    [Related: Sprawling (and modest) homes of Internet tycoons]

    The Jordan estate has 11 bedrooms, a two-story guard house and an athletic "wing" with a basketball court (of course). You'll note that the property isn't far from the golf course, but we're betting Jordan won't have to sneak onto the course at twilight to get in a few holes.

          looks decent but except for that tower on the top right (where you can see the golf course) i don't see anywhere that he gets a view of anything but trees


          i think for $20 million i would want a great view of the ocean, a lake, etc...

                  There's always those whores that you can pay 75K a year to lounge naked around your 11 bedroom home....I think I'd take that over an ocean view.

                    Jordan also bought an uptown condo in Charlotte this year, if I remember is was the whole 14th floor.

                              That 2 story tower is for the security.

                                  I think I read on ESPN somewhere that Jordan was really let down when he tried to buy Taylor's house, but he wouldn't sell

                                          Are those 2K sq ft houses in front of it? I guess it is on the edge of the development.

                                          I won't ever have the money to build a house like that but I don't think I would want one if I had it.

                                          What kind of money does he make now from Nike and other endorsements? Is he still on Forbes lists?

                                            Why does he need a 2 story guard house? Will someone going to mess with a 6'-6" black man?

                                                  he may not have it for long what with his history of failed businesses.

                                                  his current investment, charlotte bobcats, are bleeding money.

                                                        i think for $20 million i would want a great view of the ocean, a lake, etc...
                                                        i think the top tower is a guard shack?
