NBA player Ben Simmons lists breathtaking California farmhouse for $23M. Check it out
In May, NBA All-Star Ben Simmons sold his Moorestown, New Jersey, mansion to Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos for $4.55 million, Dirt reported. Now, he’s listed his jaw-dropping modern farmhouse, located in Hidden Hills, California, for the hefty price of $22.99 million, multiple news outlets including the Los Angeles Times said.
But once you rest your eyes on the interior of the seven-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom residence, the price makes sense.
“This sophisticated and sleek modern farmhouse completely rebuilt in 2021 sits on 1.4 acres surrounded by mature landscaping for the ultimate private estate,” the listing on Realtor.com says.
“Located at the end of a cul-de-sac inside the exclusive guard gated City of Hidden Hills, this secluded retreat was designed and built by the esteemed Nobel design firm.”
The farmhouse has an indoor/outdoor floor plan with double vaulted ceilings and “grand formal dining and living areas,” which “are divided by a monumental brass element atop the floating fireplace.”
And that’s not all.
The entire estate comes complete with high-end features including:
Backyard oasis
Guest house
Five guest rooms
Theater
Gym
Separate chef’s kitchen
Four-car garage
Simmons’ NBA career has been a roller coaster ride with jarring highs and lows. The 25-year-old was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers with the first pick in the 2016 NBA draft and was named Rookie of the Year during the 2017-18 season. (He was sidelined with an injury during his first season in the pros.)
His struggles came during the 2020-21 playoffs and carried over into the 2021-22 season, when the forward requested a trade from the 76ers.
He was traded to Brooklyn and suffered a herniated disc, which sidelined him for the rest of the year.
