According to the listing records, professional basketball player Chris Paul listed his 10,000 square foot property in Houston on Friday for an asking price of $8.3 million.
A geometric main house boasting two Texas limestone-clad masses connected by a glass-enclosed structure accompanied by a limestone-edge pool and a pool house with French imported clay roof tiles and 200-year-old farmhouse oak beams can be seen in the listing photos. This design is a combination of Modernist and Mediterranean styles.
The home has a total of nine bathrooms as well as five bedrooms, four of which come equipped with en-suite baths as well as private terraces. According to the listing for the home, the remaining square footage of the home is distributed over a theater, game room, library, and study.
According to the images included with the ad, some of the interior architectural highlights include a marble fireplace with two sides that connects the living room and the dining room, as well as a full-wall temperature-controlled wine cabinet in the dining room that can hold 750 bottles.
According to the listing and the photos included with the listing, the living room has French doors that go out to the pool and pool house, as well as the courtyard, which has a firepit and is lined with olive trees and a koi pond.
The listing is under the care of Dee Dee Guggenheim Howes of Compass, who declined to comment.
According to the documents, Mr. Paul purchased the home in 2018 through a trust that bore his initials, CEP, even though the ultimate closing amount is unknown at this time. At the time, the house was listed for sale at $6.9 million.
Mr. Paul appears to have a preference for real estate that is designed in the Mediterranean style, as he had owned an estate in Bel Air, California, that was designed in the same style and sold it for $8.7 million in 2017. There was no way to get in touch with Mr. Paul for a comment.
