Angels Slugger Albert Pujols Selling Irvine House For $7.75 Million
ByTravis Pulveron March 13, 2016inArticles›Celebrity Homes
Los Angeles Angels first baseman, Albert Pujols , was at one time the most feared slugger in baseball. During his prime, he could be counted on to hit .300, knock in at least 100 RBI’s, and hit at least 30 home runs. The Angels hoped they were getting that guy when they signed him to a 10-year, $240 million deal back in 2012, but it hasn’t quite turned out that way. He hasn’t hit as well and has only cleared 100 RBI’s twice in four seasons, but with 40 home runs last season, there still appears to be a lot of power behind his swing.
He is now hoping his real estate agent can knock one out of the park by selling his Irvine home for $7.75 million. The Spanish Colonial-style home sits on a half acre in the Shady Canon area of Irvine, California, and was built back in 2010. From the moment you walk in and see the sweeping staircase, the wrought iron fixtures, and rustic wood beams, you know you are in a unique home.
At approximately 9,200 square feet, the home comes complete with both formal and informal dining rooms, a media room, weight room, a tremendous kitchen, five bedrooms, and 6.5 bathrooms. You have to do something with all that space, right?
Pujols spared no expense with the house, and even made the office/study look nice and inviting.
The master bedroom comes complete with its own sitting area, soaking tub, and fireplace. It is hard to imagine that Pujols wouldn’t be able to wind down after a long day at the park in a room like this.
If he couldn’t, he could always head to his weight room to work out any residual frustrations and/or energy.
After big wins, he probably had a few teammates over to kick back in his pool room, or maybe enjoy a good movie or two in his incredible media room (complete with its own bar).
If he couldn’t relax in the master bedroom, his weight room, or his media room, he could always retreat to the hot tub outside. If sitting in it while taking in that view doesn’t relax you, nothing will.
Wait – does this mean the Angels might be shopping Pujols? There has been no chatter to indicate that the idea has come up, though. So Angels fans need not worry. Their second-favorite slugger ( Mike Trout being their favorite) is not being traded. He’ll just be laying his head down at night somewhere new (but still in Southern California).

Clippers Star Chris Paul Pays $8.995 Million For Insane House Next Door To Khloe Kardashian

If Los Angeles Clippers superstar Chris Paul has hopes of getting on a reality television show, the house he just bought for $8.995 million in Bel-Air has the perfect neighbors – Khloe Kardashian lives next door and Kourtney lives right around the corner.
His new, 10,400 square foot Mediterranean-style home is definitely the kind of home that would look good on television. It’s huge, it screams luxury, and it has just about anything a person could want in a house. For a shade under $9 million, it had better!
The view alone is not worth $9 million, but it sure is a good start!
Want to enjoy the nice weather, but don’t want to miss the big game? No problem! There is a flat screen and chairs outside, so you don’t have to miss a thing.
Should the cooking bug bite you, there is a rather impress outdoor kitchen at your disposal complete with grill, sink, and anything else you could need for a killer backyard BBQ!
Do you prefer to do your cooking indoors? The kitchen is even better equipped inside with a pizza oven and a huge center island so the kids have space to do their homework while Mom and Dad prepare dinner.
The living area is open and spacious with vaulted ceilings making sure the tallest of Paul’s teammates will not be able to touch the ceiling.
Should you prefer to watch your favorite movie on a really big screen instead of one of the huge flat screens all over the house check out the media room. If the kids are good, Dad might even let them hook up the Xbox.
Could you imagine playing Madden on that sucker?
When it comes time to go to bed, Paul will have an incredible master suite to enjoy, with a sitting room that has its own fireplace so people will never have to see his underwear on the floor.
With over 10,000 square feet, you would think there would be more than five bedrooms, but there aren’t.
Guests should never have trouble finding a bathroom though, since there are 7.5 of them in the house. Paul might want to keep them out of the master bath, however.
If he ever lets someone take a bath in this sucker, they may never leave. With a view like this, who would?
If he ends up being a lousy neighbor, there is a good chance he will not be there for long anyway. He just spent $8.5 million on Avril Lavigne’s mansion in 2012.
Then again, it is going to be pretty hard to top this place.
