Have an extra $29 million laying around? You could live in Dwyane Wade’s old mansion

The price of Dwyane Wade’s mansion just dropped for anyone with a spare $29 million.

Located on Miami Beach’s La Gorce island, the three-time champion’s former home was originally listed at $32.5 million in September.

Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union recently paid around $6.5 million for a home in Sherman Oaks, California, the Los Angeles Times previously reported. The two seem to be enjoying life on the West Coast as evinced by their enthusiasm at a recent Sierra Canyon game where both Wade and LeBron James’ eldest sons play basketball.

Still, his current residence doesn’t even begin to compare to the former.

Granted, attributing Wade’s three rings to where he laid his head is a bit of stretch yet coming home to a 12,000 square foot mansion that offers a pristine view of Biscayne Bay probably didn’t hurt.

The two-story property, which the listing describes as a “classic, East Coast inspired Spanish Architecture infused with countless contemporary amenities,” sits on one acre of land with a Miami Heat-themed basketball court, a swimming pool and private dock out back.

Need to house your huge family? This is definitely the home for you.

With six bedrooms, 11 bathrooms (nine full, two half) and a chef’s kitchen, this place would be everyone’s first choice for holiday dinners. Additionally, the movie theater and wine cellar make it perfect for entertaining kids of all ages.

Realtor.com lists Brett Harris of Douglas Elliman as the home’s Realtor.

Records show the former Miami Heat guard dished out $10.645 million for the property in December 2010. Construction of the home finished in 2015.
