NFL quarterback Tom Brady and his supermodel wife Gisele Bundchen have finally sold their home, but they finally relented and accepted $9.2 million, an offer $1.7 million below their original 2009 asking price of $10.9 million. Since they've been happily ensconced in their $20 million, 22,000 s/f mansion in Los Angeles for some months now, as lovely as it is, the Boston property was probably beginning to feel like a huge weight on their shoulders, growing heavier and heavier with each passing year it sat on the market with no takers.
Even though the Boston home's 3 bedrooms and 3 baths don't hold a match to their current 8 bedroom extravaganza, it's still an exquisite property located on famed Beacon St. This amazing two-story vintage limestone manse has 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and overlooks the Charles River. The penthouse contains a grand living area on the second floor with 2 fireplaces, a media room, a kitchen practically in the sky, another living room and a landscaped rooftop terrace with an outdoor kitchen and views over the Charles. The master suite comes with his-and-her dressing rooms, a deep soaking hot tub, a steam shower, fireplace and separate vanities.
