Where do I even start with the massive house Travis Hafner is selling just west of Cleveland in Avon Lake? At 17,000 square feet, this is one of the biggest Athlete Houses to ever be featured on Busted. The majority of the houses are in the 5,000-10,000 range. It’s rare that we see something like this on the market so enjoy. Do you have a big family? Need 10 bathrooms? Buy Hafner’s lake front masterpiece for just $5,750,000. You’ll have plenty of closet space.
Pronk, who made $66,795,900 during his MLB career, has been out of the majors since 2013 when he played for the Yankees. He ranks 8th all-time on the Indians home run list with 200. Just thought I’d paint a picture at who owns a 17,000 square foot house in Ohio that’s been decorated for an Architectural Digest magazine shoot. I’ve said it time and time again: your kid is wasting his time playing football. Get…him…into baseball. Guaranteed contracts and there are jobs like DHing where you can play for 25 years.
Anyway, here’s what Pronk’s realtor has to say about the mansion:
Incredible lakefront custom built home with lake access/beach. Every luxury and amenity you could wish for. High quality finishes. State of the art security including cameras. Home system can be controlled from your smart phone. Chefs gourmet dream kitchen with state of the art appliances. Gated drive. Infinity pool. Home theater. First & second floor master suites. Radiant floors. Too much to describe! Must see!
Exactly, it’s nice. By the way, you should know that Pronk bought this place under the name Ron Burgendy (SIC) LTD, according to county tax records.
Other highlights to Pronk’s dream house:
• 6 bedrooms, 10 baths, 6-car garage
• The basement is a nightclub…you’ll never go to a downtown club ever again
• Look at the size of the home gym…LOOK AT IT…buy it furnished
• Trader Joe’s is 6 miles
• Diamond’s is just 20 miles
Mortgage: You’re looking at $22,000 a month before figuring in all the extras…better have a good job.
